Has a slightly higher ceiling and can make plays through DBarrier.
General gameplan: Primarily relies on the Rank 3 monsters as endboard pieces, if you have access to the Battlewasp engine. Make Cicada King and use its effect to revive Sting during the opponent's turn, which gives you an extra monster negate.
Example combos:
Wynn + Sting = Cicada King + Totem Bird
Battlewasp - Arbalest the Rapidfire
Level 4 WIND Insect/Effect 1800/800
When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 Level 3 or lower Insect monster in your GY; Special Summon that monster in Defense Position. If this card in its owner's possession is destroyed by an opponent's card: You can Special Summon 1 "Battlewasp" monster from your hand or Deck. You can only use this effect of "Battlewasp - Arbalest the Rapidfire" once per turn.
A potential second search off Sting to let you make a Level 6 Synchro or a 2nd Rubber Band Shooter on Turn 3.

You can only use each effect of "Number 3: Cicada King" once per turn.
The main endboard piece of this variant. Can negate your own effects as well, so you can use something like RBS’ extra NS then negate it and summon an extender before going into Auroradon for more gas.
