STRATEGY
I know that this is far from a polished constructed deck. It doesn’t have lots of four-ofs because I don’t have four of all the cards I might want. Part of why I am posting this is to find out what I should run 4 of and what I should cut out.

The idea is to play the Thallids, then rack up the mana with Signets and search for tomorrow before playing Doubling Season. At that point you produce 4x the number of Thallids you were producing previously. This allows Deathspore Thallid to easily kill any opposing creatures, especially when combined with Vhati il-Dal.

Kill cards are the Triskelavus (does an obscene amount of damage with Doubling Season) and Wurmcalling.

I’m not experienced with Sideboards and this is just some cards I had that looked like they might be useful in a Sideboard. Again, thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks for looking,
Anvar

Here`s one idea of a BG Thallids build, Pre-lanar Chaos, off the top of my head:

4 Overgrown Tomb
4 Temple Garden
8 Forests
5 Swamp
1 Plains

4 Birds of Paradise
4 Thallid
4 Thallid Germinator
4 Deathspore Thallid
4 Pendelhaven Elder
3 Triskelavus
4 Search for Tomorrow
4 Golgari Signet
4 Selesnya Signet
3 Doubling Season

SIDEBOARD
4 Ghostway
4 Leyline of Singularity
3 Persecute
2 Privilleged Position
2 Thallid Shell-Dweller

Now, it DOES use some expensive cards, but for instance, you can swap duals for pains, birds for llanowar elves, etc...
I don't like YOU.

I also should mention the mini-combo of Herd Gnarr + Fallen Ideal. Pretty cool for BG Thallids with Doubling Season.
I don't like YOU.
