The core to this deck is its ramp package. We've got 8 creatures that tap to untap a land, like Voyaging Satyr, and 9 Fertile Ground-type land auras. These let us cast Rocco with enough mana to go find Ertha Jo or Heliod's Pilgrim (which can tutor up the Bigger on the Inside).

Unfortunately, if we enchanted the same land with Fertile Ground and Bigger on the Inside and activated the ability granted by the BotI, the Fertile Ground wouldn't trigger because that isn't a mana ability. But untapping a BotI land with our Voyaging Satyr creatures is still pretty juicy.

Where the deck really gets nutty is when we turn the BotI land into a creature with Crackling Emergence or Harmonious Convergence. Now Ertha Jo will copy our "untap target land" abilities because they are targeting a creature.

With Ertha Jo in play, a land enchanted with BotI + Crackling Emergence, and a Voyaging Satyr, we can generate 12 mana and cascade 6 times off of our next spell. If we add a Magewright's Stone, instead that's 36 mana and 18 cascades.

At that point you're almost certainly going to hit something that lets you go either A) go infinite—Umbral Mantle, Seeker of Skybreak; B) recast Rocco—Skullclamp, Wirewood Symbiote; or C) tutor for one of those cards—Enlightened Tutor, Open the Armory.

Once you've gone infinite (and sometimes before then), you can kill the table with Goblin Cannon or Surestrike Trident. I've also seen the deck make all of its lands arbitrarily large and trampling using Destiny Spinner + Umbral Mantle.
