while thalids are good, this is pretty much the god of a fungus deck.
devourer all non-essential creatures and tokens, then replace them all.
doubling season is still the best friend of this dude after himself.
while Followed Footsteps works as an enchant for this dude, i dont think it actually would duplicate the tokens on him. this means he has to eat all the saprolings he made the previous turn

Amazing card for a saproling deck, you play him and sacrifice 20 saprolings you will get 40 saprolings per turn. Then play Primal Rage and Coat of Arms.

This card is ridiculously overpowered combined with Blanchwood Armor, and Life and Limb, and maybe an Oracle of Nectars.
It scales exponentially with the amount of turns it's out for.
after 5 turns, you'd have 144 saprolings. Which are also forests, meaning they can all be tapped to gain 144 life, or used to attack.

This card is so strong. You only need a few cheap cards to sacrifice to this beast and it spits out more.
4.0

Ok this card is the best I just used it in a landfall deck I have that has roil elemental and a bunch of land spells it made me laugh so hard when I played 6 lands stole all of there creatures then sacrificed one to get 2 more lands then played Mycoloth devoured all of there creatures next turn I put in 12 1/1 creatures then stole the 2 creatures they put down and just started messing with them till they pretty much gave up and finished off with doing 20 damage in one turn sadly... It never worked like that again ... instead he wasted me for the next 6 games lol
Edit: LOL just used it I got 12 +1/+1 counters on it for four turns got it back to my hand used it again got it back to my hand and did that for four turns it was then a 244/244 and there was 240 1/1 creatures in not counting my other creatures I stole all his creatures then attacked with him once
Edit: would this work if I layed it down then used mark of eviction on it so the ... (see all)

The smart magic player combos with Duress. Hes going to win the game anyways if they dont have a removal. Anything else is just overkill.

Broken as hell, should cost 2 more mana and be only devour 1, this is simply just horribly broken. The very fact that the only bad part people can come up with is that he can be countered or removed kinda says it all. I have a fungus deck, but i don't want one of these, as it will discourage all my friends from playing against it.
5 CMC COME ON! I can only think of 1 5CMC that is better than this... chimney imp! :D

Seems really powerful. Can get huge if you have any kind of an army to sac and will make lots of tokens to replace what you just lost. Seems like it would be really strong in a Ghave deck.
This + Requiem Angel + Venser, the Sojurner = Ever expanding army of spirits and saprolings.
Great card, especially with blink effects or creatures that gain value from dying. 5/5
