The premise, if you can't see it, is to pop out massive quantities of saproling, get them HUGE, then swing. I have some serious mana ramping, most of the creatures fetch lands or make critters. Nostalgic Dreams, Harmonize, and In the Web of War are more recent additions. I kept tossing Fertile Imagination back and forth. I really like the Weathered Wayfarer and Crop Rotation, but I don't think I would want Sylvan Scrying.

One of my favorite cards in this deck is Sprout Swarm, because it really goes bonkers. My favorite combo is Rith with Pollenbright Wings, or Mycoloth, its sick. Some of the cards I'm eh about is the Life and Limb, only if I'm playing against another an elf deck or something.

Don't forget Skullclamp. That card is BONKERS in a token deck.

(It's true that it is rather, well, against the flavor of the deck to sacrifice your tokens, but you'll draw more cards with which to make tokens.)

Ajani Goldmane looks like it'd be pretty solid, for it's awesome interaction with swarms of tokens. Elspeth is pretty amazing, but makes the wrong kind of tokens.

Krosan Grip, Nantuko Vigilante, and Thunderscape Apprentice might all make an appearance. Orim's Thunder should be in there for sure, that card is awesome.

Skull Clamp is nuts, but I don't think it belongs in this deck. I'm putting it in another deck. Grip I have been tossing back and forth as well, but hull breach and Return to Dust get two for one, Dust RFGing. I have plenty of pumps, so Ajani is eh. I'd put him in a life gaining deck.

Why are Darksteel Citadel and Dryad Arbor in this deck?

Dryad Arbor can swing as well, and adds to Gaea's Cradle. Citadel is indestructible, with can help against some decks.

Both are unplayable in this deck. Dryad Arbor is basically a come into play tapped Forest which dies to all the wrath effects in EDH. Darksteel Citadel's indestructibility does what for you though? Prevents a strip lock? That 1 colorless mana isn't going to help you do anything. You're better off with a basic in either slot.

Shared Animosity is a great way to increase damage.
