I’ve been wanting to try out a swarm list for subterranean assault. I feel like it has potential since you can just strategically drop your swarms without them getting wiped early game. What should I change?

The friends I play with bring lists that they take to local tournaments so the list needs to be able to not fully be a meme. 

The idea behind the list, walk up big monsters spawn termagants to hold objectives. 

Deep strike:Trygon and raveners
Strategic reserves: 60 gaunts and 1 screamer

I own most models in the range or can proxy them.
