Okay, and you’ve also got Desert Sneak and Desert Runner. All you really need now is some more cheap minions. I probably should have mentioned this before, but I think for a swarm deck you’d want a minion-heavy Shadow deck.

But someone correct me if I’m wrong.

Remember to keep your deck down to around 34 cards. Once you have all your cards that you would like in mind and start making the deck, you will probably have trouble keeping it below 40. Just remember what your main strategy goal is. You will probably notice that some of the cards are trailing off too far from your main goal. Take these out. It’s deck cloggedge.

Southron Marcher will fit very nicely into a swarm deck, but you might want to think twice before including the others. Whirling Strike is a nice plus, but it’s not needed in your deck and can therefore add clog.

Southron Traveler has Ambush 2, ya know.

Yeah, ambush is good. Usually people go with a "Fierce in Despair" strategy. Knock off the main characters and swarm the rest.

The ambush works great for getting the twilight for it. You just need to keep the minions alive.

You could add those in, but beware: both of those cards have a steep twilight cost for a swarm. Usually, you want minions at a max of

each.
