The heck with trample, give me whispersilk cloak instead. Not only does that allow me to get the maximum number of insects each turn but it also prevents this thing from being doombladed away before it can even start to do its thing.

What's cool is that army ants actually do something similar. They lock onto each other with their jaws to create an artificial ant hill. They can even make bridges across streams this way!

I like how they reprinted it as an insect. Boy, I wish that they made insects tribal. It would make sense flavor wise.

Outclassed in almost all situations by Liege of the Tangle. Was great while it lasted.

This is a great card and all, but any opponent that knows you have it is gonna be waiting for it & will cancel/counter it. You don't usually have the lands left to do anything else afterwords & If you get it out, there are tons of aoe cards out there that will gladly eat up your 1/1 ants. Not to mention, a 6/6 for 8cmc is only good bc of trample now, w/o trample you would want a 9/9 with shroud like Kalonian Behemoth, and its cost is only 7cmc!

It would be more flavorful for it to drop insects when being dealt damage to a creature, and i think it would work fine too: There would be little reason to chump-block it, but if you block it dead, it falls apart into ants (hit it harder and more ants go flying). Like those symbiotic guys, but less solid, so that little blockers take apart some ants too.
