Well I keep looking at this and the pricetag is huge, which is why figure you aren't on a budget. But you seem to be making quite a few budget choices (like Avalanche Tusker), so I'm not sure what type of suggestions you're looking for. For example, I could say Tarmogoyf, but I don't know if you are playing with proxies with your friends or what the rules are.

I love that someone is still trying to build a Temur deck that is mostly built from the Kahns set (Temur Champions was my very first deck Build http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/temur-champions/) so I will definitley upvote this deck. You need more consistency and with the cards you have, there are too many x1 I try to not have any less than x2 of any card (Planeswalkers, Legendary, etc). I would take out Temur Charm its probably the least useful of all the charms from the Kahns. I would -2 Avalanche Tusker -2 Elvish Mystic +2 Rattleclaw Mystic +2 Heir of the Wilds +2 Savage Punch +2 Shaman of the Great Hunt +1 Yasova Dragonclaw (She has won me several games). These are just suggestions but definitely build to your style and to go against your meta.
If you get this deck to where you want it to be it can be a force. My deck has largely been unchanged since it was first built in standard and it still wins in modern. I wish you the best of luck and welcome to Temur. :)

Hey! You've got some cool choices in here that I haven't seen in a while. However, I would try to shift your focus from some of these cards to cards with generically more value.
Before doing anything, however, I must recommend looking at your banned cards listed, including Upheaval and Prophet of Kruphix. These two cards are banned in EDH and should be removed immediately if you're serious about playing EDH.
Here are the weakest cards in your deck:
- Seek the Horizon: Adding lands to your hand instead of ramping them straight to the battlefield is a mistake. Definitely switch out for cards resembling your Explosive Vegetation. For example, Harrow, Ranger's Path, Skyshroud Claim.
- Bountiful Harvest: Having some life gain is an okay choice, but not a 5-mana investment like this. Check out Nissa's Renewal and Pulse of Murasa. They each provide some value alongside the lifegain so you don't feel like you're wasting a turn gaining an amount of life that will likely by irrelevant.
- Ashcloud Phoenix: Lacks impact. It's just a 4/1 that honestly isn't that scary. Compare this to your Acidic Slime that hits the field and instantly matters by destroying something relevant! You can play more cards like that in the form of Reclamation Sage (or Caustic Caterpillar if your opponents often use Torpor Orb) or perhaps Woodfall Primus. Alternatively, I would even recommend considering Sarkhan Unbroken instead, since it ramps, draws, makes 4/4 dragons, and has a pretty sweet ultimate for your deck.
- Avalanche Tusker: This kind of just seems like a removal spell for 5 mana. Why not just play a versitile removal spell like Song of the Dryads, Cyclonic Rift, or Beast Within? I'm actually very shocked that I'm not seeing Cyclonic Rift in this list.
- Destructor Dragon: I'm not seeing you abusing this particularly. I don't see a Birthing Pod to sacrifice it, nor do I see any way to reanimate it. Maybe just Frost Titan or Deadeye Navigator instead? If you're heartset on a flyer for this slot, consider Dragonmaster Outcast or Hornet Queen. Both seem to be much more powerful in the grand scheme.
- Forgestoker Dragon: It's okay. I'd probably just rather have a Steel Hellkite.
- Polukranos, World Eater: The reason I'm picking away at all of these big stompy creatures is because EDH doesn't always have to do with creatures, and if you focus your deck on winning the creature fight too much, you might find yourself ill-prepared for the more common noncreature fights in EDH. Imagine if this was just a Scavenging Ooze. Ooze would give you better game against reanimator strategies, since even now you have pretty much nothing against that. Also, Ooze gets very give and gives you a good amount of lifegain. It cuts off your opponent's Eternal Witness and flashback effects.
- Soul of Zendikar: This just needs to be Woodland Bellower or Avenger of Zendikar honestly. Even Wort, the Raidmother would be more impressive.
- Thunderbreak Regent: Depending on how many dragons you cut, this might not be worth running. For the most part, in EDH, a creature needs to hit the board and either knock out a threat immediately (like with Woodfall Primus), or have amazing value (like with Consecrated Sphinx), or perhaps just be more impactful like with Craterhoof Behemoth. Thunderbreak doesn't really offer impact, don't offer card advantage, and isn't that scary in a 40 life game. Unfortunately, you have to assume that in the average game, the board is going to get wiped about every 3 turns. Wrath of God, Merciless Eviction, Supreme Verdict, Final Judgment, Terminus etc... sweepers are powerful and plentiful in EDH. Thunderbreak Regent isn't scaring anyone.
- Icy Blast: This should just be Frost Titan.
Some great choices you've made!
- Temur Ascendancy: This is one card that I can really get behind. Imagine it with Omnath, Locus of Rage. I would recommend also checking out Elemental Bond and Garruk's Packleader for similar effects.
- Warstorm Surge: This card is just fantastic and extremely useful/threatening. Great choice.
- Cultivate: This card is excellent, as well as its cousin reprint Kodama's Reach.
- Chord of Calling: A staple honestly. Good choice. I can also recommend Green Sun's Zenith, Genesis Wave, and Woodland Bellower.
- Acidic Slime: Very impactful, great when flickered in some way like with Conjurer's Closet or Deadeye Navigator.
- Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind: I personally like this card a lot, and would recommend Keen Sense for the combo wombo if you're into that kinda thing.
- Maelstrom Wanderer: This card is broken af.
- Eternal Witness: This is my personal favorite card. If you like it too, you might consider Greenwarden of Murasa or Regrowth.
- Yavimaya Elder: I like this one, though I usually prefer Wood Elves on account of it being easier to cast and actually ramps the land.
Cards you should try and get ahold of.
- Green Sun's Zenith
- Life from the Loam
- Woodfall Primus
- Deadeye Navigator (very overpowered, some people don't like using this)
- Cyclonic Rift (mildly overpowered)
- Sarkhan Unbroken
- Reclamation Sage
- Mina and Denn, Wildborn
- Exploration
- Omnath, Locus of Rage
- Tooth and Nail (super overpowered, some people are against using this)
- Drop of Honey (hard to find)
- Oracle of Mul Daya
- Greater Good
- Carpet of Flowers (for competitive pods with lots of blue meta)
- Pyroblast / Red Elemental Blast more for that blue meta
- Defense of the Heart
- Progenitor Mimic
- Birthing Pod
- Evolutionary Leap
Good luck with the deck!

I understand that you want to play with new cards, but seriously? Avalanche Tusker? Snowhorn Rider? Crater Elemental?
These are from a newer set, yes, but if you're hoping to do well, (no offense), some of these bad cards have to go :/
For example, Dragon Broodmother is a big red-green dragon that gives you little dragons.
