Yeah, I'll make the switch with Snake Basket.

Extinction would function as a second Engineered Plague

With Infect listed as your way to go, I'd also recommend Skithryx, the Blight Dragon, and since you have Urborg in the fold, Lashwrithe. Got someone with no flying blockers? Skithryx + Lashwrithe = dead.

Thanks for the suggestion but Skithryx is a dragon skeleton not a kind of pest like the others.
I do have creatures that aren't insects, snakes, spiders, rats, wasps and such but they were added either to help the mana base (Elves) or because they had something about spreading a disease or more pests (Horrors).
Also I listed Infect as part of what the deck is about not as THE way to go. There is plenty of different abilities that are diseases/plague/contagion related but using those tags propably wouldn't say much to everybody.

That is definitely a fair point, and I do love the flavor here. Triumph of the Hordes could help you with an Infect win-con with your given creatures as well, could be something to look into.

Also, Urborg Elf has to be changed: it's got the blue mana symbol right there as one of the ones it makes, which means it doesn't fit in the confines of G/B.
