Deck discussion for Infect

Love the Infect variant. Not sure why Necropede is in the sideboard; it might better be replaced with a spell snare. Twisted Image seems good against Kiln Fiend, and Kiln Fiend only. Decks that run that kind of one-shot will also run Blistercoil Wired and Monastery Swiftspear... Twisted Image won't blow out that deck super often. I'm also a little concerned about the Viridian Corrupter; the nature's claim seems better, but I'm not entirely sure either, the value of a creature might make up for it...?

Necropede is good against decks like tokens and other infect lists. Also twisted image is mostly against Spellskite but it can also help in matches where the opponent is playing wall of roots, noble hierarch, signal pest, ornithopter, etc.

Ok, fair enough. I can see the Twisted Image for Spellskite, Kiln Fiend, and Noble Hierarch. But Necropede still feels like a bad choice for me. Against token decks it, what, takes out a singular 1-drop? I don't mean to be harsh but it's going to do very little against a token deck. As for mirror matches, the only thing it will help with is with Glistener Elf. You can't very well kill it when an opponent activates and Inkmoth because it's a flyer. If you want to keep that in your sideboard just to deal with a Glistener Elf that's fine, your deck not mine. I just find it extremely specific and not very efficient. Again, I may have come off as harsh, I honestly don't mean to, I'm just trying to give you my thoughts on your sideboard.
