Deck discussion for Virus

I found that the reusable pump offered by Trigon of Rage is useful instead of needing to put in 12 or so Pump spells to insure you always have one to beef up a creature. Groundswell is in essence +8/+4 in this deck for (1) and that is the reason for its inclusion, while Mutagenic Growth is a +4/+2 for free when we need it to be.

Geth's Throne at a minimum is a proliferate effect for (2) >By sacrificing itself for proliferation. Otherwise it can sacrifice a Trigon of Rage if we've run out of attackers to finish the job, or a Contagion clasp after its been tapped to proliferate twice in a round with only 4 mana. Alternatively you can use it as an outlet for Necropede to deal with a creature (-2/-2) and add to their impending doom.

Any Ideas on where to put Distortion Strike into this deck. It fits the theme perfectly but +2/+0 for 1 doesn't match up to the other pump spells we have.

We could remove the Geth's Thrones for 3 distortion strikes to allow us to sneak in a necropede / glistener elf if they've targeted our Blighted Agents with their removal and got an early wall up. Or perhaps we merely remove the whispersilk cloaks and put in the distortion strikes to the sideboard.
