A fiarly disjointed deck forcing the Scarab, Locust and Scorpion Gods into one place. Nekusar seemed to link up the locust and scarab gods the most with wheels so there's more locust love in the hope that the deck actually comes together. The scarab just contents itself with what gets wheeled into people's graveyards and so the scorpion comes second place with the support because otherwise we'd be relying on 3 mana for 1 -1 counter which is pretty meh. Sedris might be an alternative commander and beef up the scarab not the locust? Not sure. If I was going full Vorthos it would be a Bolas commander but I don't think I'd ever get to summon 8cmc Bolas and a 3 mana tax isn't very nice anyway. That only leaves the Ravager but not really up to paying £20 for a single card.
