My brother and I have been trying to figure out a way to draw through your deck using Fecundity and a way to kill our opponent while doing so. The only downside is that I don't think there are enough creatures that can replace themselves with tokens once they die(I.e. Doomed Traveler), and at a cheap enough casting cost, to keep the combo going.
Also, I don't feel that Blood Artist is a very good win-con. Is there possibly an enchantment or artifact that does the same thing? Maybe a more reliable creature with a similar ability?
I've thought about Allosaurus Rider as well, so extra Fecunditys won't be a dead draw if you don't have mana to cast them(which you likely won't). Does anybody know of any other creatures with an ability like riders?
Along with a couple delve creatures such as Hooting Tendrils and Sultai Scavenger, You could very effectively use your sacrificed creatures to drop the delve cards costs to one mana. But, I'm don't know any good colorless-colored mana converters.
Pawn of Ulamog is the only real way to be able to pump out some mana while you're comboing off, so I feel cheap artifact creatures would be the best way to go. since Memnite and Ornithopter are 0-drops, they need to be used regardless. And the cool thing about using just artifact creatures means we could use Disciple of the Vault as our main leech, and Blood Artist as our Disciple 5-7. This also opens up access to Mox Opal(extra mana), AndArcbound Ravager could be used as a sac outlet.
With a god-hand(or close to it), you could combo off on turn three. There's enough redundancy with all the combo pieces(draw engine, sac engine, mana engine), and the sideboard could easily hold cards to bring back lost combo pieces(such as Reveillark) while still netting you a card(if you have a fecundity), 2 point life swing(Blood artist is still on the board), or both. EDIT: hit a turn two win while shuffling the deck and learning what could make it fizzle or keep rolling.
After deciding on what route to take, I assembled this list. It's not tested against any decks. I've played solitaire with it to see how it runs, if I have enough of each combo piece, or too many:
