Tried to make the deck a little bit more consistent and with a couple more draw and planeswalker cards. In addition, the creatures added give a bit more staying power and other abilities instead of just strictly attacking, although that's still the main mode of winning. Also went a bit more in on +1/+1 counters as well.

-1 Changeling Sentinel -1 Moonglove Changeling -1 Valiant Changeling -1 Undead Augur -1 Venom Sliver -1 King of the Pride -1 Winding Constrictor -1 Neoform -1 Tatyova, Benthic Druid -1 Vastwood Surge -1 Bloodline Keeper  ^Flip -1 Chromatic Lantern +1 Skyshroud Claim +1 Despark +1 Oath of Ajani +1 Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter +1 Kaya, Ghost Assassin +1 Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver +1 Teferi, Time Raveler +1 Crystalline Crawler +1 Tendershoot Dryad +1 Twilight Prophet +1 Sanctum Seeker +1 Shalai, Voice of Plenty

multimedia on Budget Emmara Selesnya Tokens

Hey, nice budget version, less than $50 is impressive.

Command Tower is now less than $1 and is one of the best lands in Commander. Selesnya Sanctuary is another upgrade for a dual land. Quest for Renewal good with Emmara letting you create Soldiers or tap your tokens for other effects during each opponent's turn. Good repeatable draw with Mentor of the Meek. Glare of Subdual goes well with Renewal as opponent creature lockdown using tokens. Nullmage Shepherd can wreck opponents artifact or enchantment strategies.

Felidar Retreat is a new enchantment in Zendikar Rising for tokens. It's repeatable no mana cost Township effect or create a Cat token just by playing a land. Worth adding Evolving Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse and Myriad Landscape it adding Retreat. Champion of Lambholt can make your token army unblockable since she grows each time a token is created.

Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter combines well with Good-Fortune Unicorn to make each token created a mana dork. Jiang can put a counter on Emmara making it easier to tap her while also making mana. If going the Vehicle route for crew then Aethersphere Harvester and Untethered Express are some budget upgrades.

Rootborn Defenses and Sundering Growth are good instant spells with populate included. Camaraderie is an upgraded for Collective Unconscious and it's less than $0.50.

Truer words have not been spoken, I did actually see an infinite combo deck once with Sarkhan it was really funny.

It was between Teferi, Master of Time, The Ozolith, and sarkhan and Thassa, Deep-Dwelling. They got teferi to 11 turned him into a creature then blinked him. Next turn they would turn him into a creature and attack with him, to put the counters of him and ult him to get teferi to give 2 more turns, over those turns you can stack up more counters with the ozolith to ult him again.

He may not have had enough support, but he was definitely a really cool dude.

Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter was also amazing. and he is instantly the best planeswalker ever because of his dog

Hardened Scales, Doubling Season, Branching Evolution, Kalonian Hydra, Champion of Lambholt, Nissa, Voice of Zendikar, and Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter are all good, though some of them are not budget. Here's a link to my +1/+1 counters deck, if it gives you any ideas: Listen to the Praetors' Voice.

I like the list so far. I would recommend taking out the enchantment draw cards, there are not enough of them to really capitalize on their effects. Instead run draw cards that depend on your creature's strengths such as Return of the Wildspeaker

Some budget yet strong cards for a +1/+1 counter focused deck would definitely be Mowu, Loyal Companion and Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter

How about Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter? The ramp would add some value to your deck. Greater Good could eat Roalesk, allowing you to nab his proliferate ability early, although it is a tad expensive. Momentous Fall is a bit less expensive but only uses itself once.

:O You're running Mowu without Jiang that's illegal

In all seriousness, Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter is a good card and would help ramp.

Biogenic Upgrade is OP with Mowu as well. Thoroughly recommend it.

Nice deck. Just a few thoughts, Ajani, the Greathearted seems like it could be a nice fit, providing a lot of counters on a decent board, while also helping your planeswalkers. Not sure how much you’re using it, but for extra redundancy of Rishkar, Peema Renegade, Jiang Yanggu, Wildcrafter is another interesting card. Tireless Tracker might be useful, since the clues do offer card draw that I think the deck lacks, plus it can give itself counters when you use the clues. Finally, with all the counters, it seems impossible to overlook Avatar of the Resolute, the card is incredibly strong in a heavy counter deck. I hope this has been helpful.
