Is Sporemound and Life and Limb an infinite? Or can it infinite after making another saproling? the introduction of new fungus/ saproling support for edh and brawl makes me curious.
Yes, this is an infinite loop. It’s also an infinite loop of mandatory actions, so the game will end in a draw unless any player removes either Life and Limb or Sporemound from the battlefield.
The loop works as follows:
A land enters the battlefield. This triggers Sporemound.
Sporemound’s trigger resolves, creating a Saproling token.
The token is also a Forest and thus a land, so Sporemound triggers again.

...etc.
