Solution
Step 1: Cast Fume Spitter and immediately sacrifice it, targeting your opponent's Shivan Dragon
Step 2: Cast Aggressive Urge on your Precursor Golem, which will replicate the spell for each Golem Token. You'll draw three cards (Throne of Geth, Battlegrowth, and Grim Affliction)
Step 3: Play Grim Affliction on your Precursor Golem, which will replicate the spell for each Golem Token. This will put three new +1/+1 tokens on your Primordial Hydra (now 7/7), and three -1/-1 tokens on your opponent's Shivan Dragon (now 1/1)
Step 4: Cast Spread the Sickness on your Precursor Golem, which will replicate it again. This will put three new +1/+1 tokens on your Primordial Hydra (now 10/10), and three -1/-1 tokens on your opponent's Shivan Dragon, killing it. Your Primordial Hydra will also now have Trample.
Step 5: Attack with Primordial Hydra to win
