Infinite Combo - Infinite saprolings

Step One: Have a source of +1 counters
Cards like: Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest, Rot Shambler, Sigil Captain, Cathars' Crusade, or Ghave, Guru of Spores and any effect that allows for double counters (Corpsejack Menace and Primal Vigor)
Step 2: Get a mana source based off of your saprolings
Cards like: Cryptolith Rite or Ashnod's Altar or Utopia Mycon Step 3: Ghave, Guru of Spores - use 1 mana to remove a counter from a creature, creating another saproling. Tap/sac the new saproling to add one mana, removing the counter from it, creating a new saproling, ect...

Generating Saprolings

Basically every Fungus creature; spore counters create saprolings.
Vitu-Ghazi, the City-Tree
Aura Mutation
Sprout Swarm - can make a lot of saprolings with untapped saprolings on end-step
Fungal Sprouting
Ghave, Guru of Spores
Mycoloth and Tendershoot Dryad - saprolings each upkeep
Saproling Symbiosis and Second Harvest - double your saprolings
Primal Vigor and Parallel Lives allow you to create double saprolings

Anti-Boardwipes

Boardwipes are the bane of this deck. So here are the ways of saving our precious saprolings:

Golgari Charm
Rootborn Defenses
Eldrazi Monument
Dauntless Escort

Bring creatures back from the dead infinitely with Karmic Guide and Reveillark

When we can't save them, we can do other things to still benefit from it:

Congregate and Elvish Farmer - life gain
Fresh Meat - get stronger creatures than the original, which is lethal if it's an entire boardwipe
Zulaport Cutthroat and Slimefoot, the Stowaway - punish opponents with damage when your saprolings die

Card Draw

Skullclamp - classic
Psychotrope Thallid
Grim Backwoods
Huatli, Radiant Champion - you will usually get her emblem the second turn after you play her; draw a card whenever a creature enters your battlefield
Collective Unconscious - draw a card for each creature you control. Careful - don't draw yourself to death
Rishkar's Expertise - draw cards equal to highest power among creatures

Control

Aura Shards - great against artifact and enchantment decks; eliminate annoying cards
Grave Pact - make opponents sacrifice all of their creatures
Bonds of Mortality - remove hexproof and indestructible from annoying opponents' creatures
Ghave, Guru of Spores + Woodfall Primus - removal for as much mana as you have. Simply sac Woodfall to Ghave's +1 ability, get the removal trigger, then place the +1 counter on Woodfall, negating the -1 counter and letting you sac again with persist. Repeat. Deathspore Thallid - kill creatures by sacrificing saprolings
Fumigate - boardwipe, if you must. Gain life for it, though. Could also be lethal with Zulaport Cutthroat and Slimefoot, the Stowaway
Nevinyrral's Disk - boardwipe
