Lanzo493 on High-cost abilities

Almighty Brushwag, Anointed Chorister, Knight of the Ebon Legion and Spectral Sailor are good 1 drops due to their solid abilities. At 2 mana you have Coralhelm Guide that can get all that damage through, too. Knight of Cliffhaven is a good mana sink for extra mana you don’t use, as well as Null Champion. Oran-Rief Invoker is a decent card in the invoker cycle. You’ve also got Dawnglare Invoker, Flamewave Invoker, Starlight Invoker, and Frostwind Invoker. For a top end card there’s Shalai, Voice of Plenty.

I’m going to make an assumption that you’d play bant. This lets you play Training Grounds, Biomancer's Familiar and Zirda, the Dawnwaker using some of the best and most aggressive 1 drop and 2 drop creatures. That’s what I would do anyway.

Thassa, God of the Sea will let you pay 1U for each creature to make them unblockable.

You could also try cards that give all your creatures flying, fear, or protection. Cards like Akroma's Memorial, Eldrazi Monument, Archetype of Imagination, Frostwind Invoker, Levitation, Wonder, Intimidation, and Vela the Night-Clad.

Torrent Elemental, Blustersquall, and Teleportal could work too.

So this is both a decent start and has a long way to go. While I don't have many specific card cuts to recommend to you, I can point you in a general direction for you to go, as well as a bunch of cards that might help you...

Lands and Mana Sources Show

This looks pretty good! Some recommendations:

• Mind Stone over Simic Cluestone
• Finding a way to add in Growing Rites of Itlimoc  ^Flip

Some issues I see with the deck Show

• Not enough Evasion. While your creatures might be large, very few of them have trample, flying, unblockable, landwalk, etc. This means that against any deck that makes tokens (Which is a LOT of them), you will have a VERY hard time actually killing them.
• Not enough removal. I know that UG tends to be very light in removal, but it is still VERY important. While you have a couple removal spells, mass removal is still very useful.
• Not enough protection. Similar to your removal spells, you have very few ways to protect your own creatures. Being able to protect your own beefy creatures is important in commander when there are so many opponents and having a large number of cards in your hand paints a large target upon your back.

Evasion Recommendations Show

Archetype of Imagination, Consecrated Sphinx, Diluvian Primordial, Favor of the Overbeing, Frostwind Invoker, Glyph Keeper, Guardian of Tazeem, Hangarback Walker, Horizon Chimera, Jugan, the Rising Star, Kefnet the Mindful, Decimator of the Provinces, Invert the Skies, Overrun, Overwhelming Stampede, Pathbreaker Ibex and so on and so forth. There's a LOT of options here, so just find whichever are both budget and fun for you to play. Like there's SO many I don't want to spend the time to list them all for you :P. Seriously take a look at a lot of the creatures with emerge as they're VERY on theme for this deck.

Removal Recommendations Show

Crush of Tentacles, Cyclonic Rift, Coastal Breach, Displacement Wave, Kederekt Leviathan, River's Rebuke, and Ezuri's Predation. And that's JUST for mass removal. Green also has a bunch of fight spells that you could consider adding. While all of these are obviously a bit much, I feel that some of these should be added.

Protection Recommendations Show

Simic Charm, Heroic Intervention, Swiftfoot Boots, Blossoming Defense, Vines of Vastwood, Plaxmanta, and other cards similar to these. You do NOT need very many of these, but a few more would be VERY useful.

Potential Cuts Show

These are just some expensive or not quite on theme cards that I would recommend cutting. If you want me to elaborate on any of these, please let me know!Shapers of Nature, Lorthos, the Tidemaker, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, Green Sun's Zenith, Imprisoned in the Moon, Kiora, the Crashing Wave, Rites of Flourishing, Thaumatic Compass  ^Flip, Overbeing of Myth, Mistcutter Hydra,

In general, these cards are either too clunky, too expensive (cost wise), have strictly better versions, or don't push your game plan forward.

Hopefully some amount of this will help! You're allready at the deck being only $90 so you're pretty close! Good luck!
