Description of deck by its author (quoted):
As we can see, one way to break a card's symmetry is to prepare your deck to fully take advantage of the symmetrical card, while your opponent is less likely to benefit as much. But another approach is to take advantage of your opponent's card-draws. Multani obviously retains a massive size when both you and your opponent maintain large hands. If your opponent plays a lot of creatures but is unable to play out as many as he draws, he may end up discarding large creatures you can steal with Animate Dead, Reanimate and Dance of the Dead. You can also punish them for drawing the cards with nasty surprises like Stormseeker, Sudden Impact, and Blood Oath. And since the card draw is optional, one way to dissuade your opponent from taking advantage of it is to warn them off with Black Vise, Viseling, and Underworld Dreams.

The deck I present below is based off several group game decks I've played featuring Fecundity. They contain more rares than I usually like to list here, but most of them are pretty inexpensive and fairly easy to obtain, so I hope you'll indulge me this time.

The deck opens as an innocent, fun little "Thallid" deck that can hopefully sit unmolested for a while until Fecundity shows up and you start drawing a lot of cards. Elvish Farmer with a few Saprolings out can really kick things off once Fecundity is in play: sacrifice the Saprolings to gain 2 life and draw a full hand, then cast Spontaneous Generation for a bunch more Saprolings. Sacrifice Saprolings, gain life, draw cards, repeat. Aura Mutation is a great utility card that plays into the Saproling theme, and can also turn a used-up Saproling Burst into five 1/1 Saprolings. The lone Fungal Bloom is just for fun and part of the "silly Thallid deck" camouflage while you set up Fecundity!

If you have the rares, Gaea's Cradle obviously works wonders in a deck like this and gives you tons of mana to work with. Savannahs or Brushlands can also help smooth your mana. The deck works best in a small group game setting. Hope you enjoy the deck-- and Fecundity-- as much as I do!
