First I have to say that the name of this deck is not original as I came across it from a thread discussion I started on BGG and "The Mothersucker" was first introduced by Cathorsis.
However, with some new card that card that came in, it will be interesting to see how another Shub and Syndicate be build.
Support card destruction will come from Burrowing from Beneath and Grasping Chtonian.
I have one Under the Porch is for situation when I was not able to draw Nug early.
Hungry Dark Young and Corrupted Mid-Wife will be used for Character recursion.
Due to lack of Arcane icons, Forcing the Truth can help ready one of my non-Ancient one character for defence while exhausting the opponent character.
Red-Gloved Men is to get a conspiracy card ot to set up board to trigger Savio Corvi's ability and also capitalising on his Investigation icon.
David Pan and Hatchet Man can benefit with the high skill value of the Ancient One characters.
Wheelman is the deck to (hopefully) drive the Ancient One to different stories.
I am not sure whether Cunning Ruse is the best Conspiracy card for this deck but it will prove useful when played together with Jacob Finnegan and Ya-ta-veo can to some extent deter some opponent go for that Conspiracy card (provided I have an undrained domain)

A Deck that leverages in bringing out Nug and Y'Glonac to the board and capitalise on Savio Corvi comboing with A Cunning Ruse
I would put Arthur Todd in there. The ability to put Nug as early as turn 1 on the board is too good to pass on imho. And I would never leave a syndicate deck at 2*Lena and without Knoll (and he adds some Arcane as well), I think. You don't have to go heavy on skill shenanigans to terrorize the opponent with Lena and Knoll alone.
I'm not a fan of Yeb. Granted, I've failed to put him to action as of yet, but even if you get Nug out turn one, with your character cost spread, you are probably fine with leaving the domains at 3-2-2, 3-3-2 at most. That being said, I think Favor of Eshu might compliment this: You don't need the ramp The Festival offers, but instead you could make great use of its tutoring. With quality tutoring like this, the Midwives might be prime candidates for getting the cut. Furthermore, cutting one Ya-te-veo might be okay, and I'm not that great a fan of Wheelman. Just my 2c, give some configurations a try, I'd say.

Hi Daevar,
If you are to put in Arthur Todd, which card would take out to make space for him?
