I wanted to build a massive token army and Bruse and Tana seemed up to the job. This is a semi-budget deck (under $100) and looks to utilize primarily saprolings to do some fun things.
Tana, the Bloodsower is the primary commander while Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder boosts her. If Tana, the Bloodsower is destroyed you can still win with Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder and Tana, the Bloodsower can win without Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder but having both out is more fun.

Game Plan

Start swinging with Tana as soon as possible to start generating saprolings. Buff Tana up using equipments and auras (and Bruse) to make more creatures. Saprolings can be used for mana, card draw, attacking, or pinging opponents. Either kill everyone with a massive Tana, the Bloodsower or a ridiculous amount of saprolings (or both).

Buff Tana

• Blackblade Reforged
• Bravado
• Eidolon of Countless Battles
• Ivy Lane Denizen
• Mace of the Valiant
• Pennon Blade
• Pollenbright Wings

More Combat

• Moraug, Fury of Akoum
• Relentless Assault
• Fury of the Horde

Saproling payoffs

• Goblin Bombardment
• Fungal Plots
• Impact Tremors
• Utopia Mycon
• Xenagos, the Reveler
• Druids' Repository

Synergies + Combos

• Tana, the Bloodsower + Bruse Tarl, Boorish Herder + Ivy Lane Denizen/Bravado/etc... -> quadruple Tana's power (if Tana hits for lets say 4 damage with the first strike, she gets 4 +1/+1 counters then hits for 8 normal damage and gets 8 +1/+1 counters ending as a 16/16)
• Life and Limb + Sporemound -> infinite mana/creatures (just be sure you have a way to break the cycle (Goblin Bombardment)

Suggestions and comments welcome! There are some better cards I have put in maybe-board or acquire-board due to being a little too pricy.
