So I was searching an old box of cards and I found Mistfolk . What do think of it for this style of deck.

Welpp,
You could probably do with not running Mistfolk or Spellskite, though they are good. They require a lot of available resources and require that Kraj is up and running to prevent him from being removed. Mistfolk is just a more flavorful Lightning Greaves that also can't be blown up. That's useful, but maybe not indispensable. So, here's some removal suggestions for if you want to include one or all of them:
Argothian Elder -- Fun idea for an infinite combo, but much more expensive and much less useful than Magus of the Candelabra
Beguiler of Wills -- Gaining control of creatures is also great, but this one is very situational, and less likely to work without Kraj online
Razorfin Abolisher -- Just bad. Remove it, or replace it with Tradewind Rider
I noticed that you don't have a Kiora's Follower either. That's pretty useful. I would probably cut Horseshoe Crab for it. Sure, the crab is good for the untap ability, but you have plenty and will always be trying to assemble a combo using those abilities. So, crab eats a whole card slot -- especially when you are never going to tutor for it over something more resilient (Morphling) or something more usable (abuse-able) (Aphetto Alchemist)

Spellskite Mistfolk and Glen Elendra Archmage -- the latter absolutely needs inclusion -- sage of fables is diabolical with it

I think the biggest thing to think about when considering cuts is what your game plan is and then assess how each card works towards that plan. It looks like your plan is to go for an Enchanted/Equipped Commander, and hit in for damage. There's a control sub theme, but that doesn't seem huge. I think something to keep in mind is that while a Bestow creature can be cast as an aura, they are not auras in your hand/library/graveyard. They are only auras when they are on the stack after their bestow cost has been paid and when enchanting another creature.
I think the following cards don't really work with that theme:
Academy Researchers - They grab an enchantment, but they equip it to themselves. This is ok if the body is relevant, but a 2/2 with the enchantments you've got seems kinda meh. I'd consider cutting this guy. He doesn't help you pump the commander and he doesn't help you control the board.
Crystalline Nautilus - I feel like this card will lead to more feel bad moments than feel good ones. Sure you've got a big guy, but with 3 or 4 opponents someone will have a spell that can target your guy. It doesn't matter if the spell resolves or not, it's about if it gets targeted.
Disciple of the Ring - You're not running nearly enough Instants or Sorceries for this to matter. It's cool, but unless you can guarantee you're getting the affect when you need it, it's not worth running.
Mistfolk - I'm not sure I understand why this one is here. It's an irrelevant body. You're trying to beef up your commander, not some other guy.
Arcanum Wings - I feel like this would be really cool if you had expensive aurus to swap with it. I think you've only got one or two 4+ CMC auras, so the 3 mana aura swap ability is kind of useless for most of your auras.
Nyxborn Triton - This one seems kind of mediocre. It checks some boxes, but it's not great at the boxes it checks. I'd replace this with something with more splash. 5 mana to give something +2/+3 ain't great.
Nyxborn Shieldmate - See Nyxborn Triton
Glorious Anthem - This card is awesome in token decks, or decks that go wide. I think your deck is looking to go tall. I think this is an easy cut.
Bubbling Beebles - This is a tough cut, as it seems like a good thing to voltron up if your commander is removed somehow. However, I don't think you're really going to have to worry about that. I'd consider cutting this.
Ivory Mask - Hexproof on yourself is one of those things that can be really good or really wasted depending on the deck's you're playing. From looking at what everyone in the group is running, I don't know that hexproof would be extremely useful. If you're still looking for cuts, the self-hexproof cards might be worth looking at.
Aegis of the Gods - Ivory Mask
I feel like a lot of your enchantments aren't very splashy. Here's some Splashy ones to consider to replace some of the ones you've got:
Some cards I forgot about in my original recommendations:
I would also consider taking out Negate and Remove Soul for targeted removal. Reality Shift and Rapid Hybridization might be worth looking at.
