A card well fitting in a deck in which you want to produce many tiny creatures. Valuable in combination with Ant Queen, and that with flavor.

Leyline of the Meek. Or Glorious Anthem of course, but I'm trying to be creative here.

funny, if you hit it with release the ants and win the clash, you can keep getting ants. Just don't accidentally kill the thing.

@Arachibutyrophobia

Two ants a turn? What's the fun in that?

Turn 1: Forest, Birds of Paradise
Turn 2: Mountain, Suspend Shivan Meteor
Turn 3: Land, Saber Ants
Turn 4: Shivan Meteor resolves targeting Saber Ants, land, Coat of Arms, swing for 169

It's risky, but killing your opponent with 13 ant tokens would be hilarious

For less convoluted interactions, see Regeneration

Fun with Indestructibility. Now add Blasting Station and you get plenty of fun ways to abuse the combo with the cards like Deathgreeter or Proper Burial.

Indestructibility, Pariah and goblin artillery. Throw down some Shivan Meteor, then overrun for the win.

They stay on the battlefield only long enough to consume the losers.

You heard the flavor text! Saber ants' tokens remain on the battlefield after the game is over and eat the losing player!

hate to break ya'lls bubble, but Shivan Meteor's only gonna do 3 damage to Saber Ants, b/c its toughness is 3...not 13...but you CAN boost its toughness with Belbe's Armor...which could crank out a ton of little green insect tokens! ;D

@manic_headcase, creatures take as much damage as they can take unless it is trample combat damage. Shivan Meteor does indeed deal 13 damage to a creature whether or not it has 3 toughness or 28 toughness.

If you don't want to wait for Shivan Meteor you can also target it using Into the Maw of Hell.
