Suggestions:
Incubation Druid -> Fyndhorn Elves
Maraleaf Pixie -> Boreal Druid
Leafkin Druid -> Arbor Elf or Sakura-Tribe Scout

Unfortunately, you can't put Noble Hierarch in this deck due to color identity, it taps for white mana as well as blue and green. Try Maraleaf Pixie if you want the blue mana in addition to green.

Thanks for your response! As Maraleaf Pixie+Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy also goes infinite with Freed from the Real and costs less than the Channeler, I hesitate to remove it. Thus, I think I will take the route of removing a noncreature rock/a creature without combo potential. Thanks again:)

I love taking a pile of cards and seeing what you can turn it into! I don't know which cards you have or what budget you have for acquiring new ones, but I'll list some cheap suggestions I have for a variety of archetypes you could pursue.

1) Simic ramp: Already goes well with Air Elemental, Archetype of Endurance, Oakgnarl Warrior, Overgrown Battlement, Yavimaya Wurm, Simic Keyrune. Some inclusions might be Llanowar Elves, Axebane Guardian, Coiling Oracle, Maraleaf Pixie, Beanstalk Giant, Terra Stomper, Lorthos, the Tidemaker. The goal is to accelerate into big threats.

2) U/G unblockable: Already goes well with Marang River Prowler, Downpour, Giant Growth, Might of the Masses, Aqueous Form, Coastal Piracy, Turntimber Grove. Some inclusions might be Curious Obsession, Daring Saboteur, Mist-Syndicate Naga, Ohran Viper, Trygon Predator, Distortion Strike. The goal is to get value from hitting with unblocked creatures.

3) U/G tempo/control: Already goes well with Breaching Hippocamp, Cloaked Siren, Mist Raven, Fog, Negate, Unsummon, Voyage's End, Claustrophobia. Some inclusions might be Vapor Snag, Dissolve, Mana Leak, AEtherling, Delver of Secrets  ^Flip, Devastation Tide. The goal is to deny the opponent their things while playing tricky threats of your own.

I also see cards in here that could work with mono green Assault Formation, simic +1/+1 synergy, or flying tribal, so you have a lot of options. As a sidenote, I'd also recommend upping your land count to about 24 while you have so many 5+ cost cards in the deck. Anyway, good luck!

Yes cool to see an Ezuri in action! I also like the Elf subtheme, but why no Priest of Titania instead of Maraleaf Pixie (or Immaculate Magistrate)?? This deck needs more turn 2 ramp. If you play a 4 mana commander, you don't want to ramp for 3 mana you want to ramp on turn 2, because after that you can play your captain on turn 3. Farseek, Rampant Growth, Nature's Lore, Simic Signet & Talisman of Curiosity. Another card which I love in my Ezuri is Mystic Snake, because the Snake triggers Ezuri and to counter something important is always good.

It is generally a good idea to choose cards that best work in your planned deck and stick with multiples of those cards. Having singles of good cards really does nothing because you will have a small chance of drawing them.

Looking at your deck, 2 strategies stand out - being able to add to the attack power of creatures and being able to attack with unblockable creatures.

Yes, using the effect of Phase Dolphin, or Mistford River Turtle to get in some attacks that can't be blocked can be a great strategy. The problem is the cmc of cards in your combinations and the amount of time that you need to set up combos. I would tend to stick with Phase Dolphin to allow unblockable attacks by Lorescale Coatl and Thieving Otter.

You then need to speed up your card draw and play speed of your deck. Growth Spiral will work to get extra draws and thin down your deck, increasing your chances of drawing the cards that you want. Primal Empathy can build on creature power or card-draw. Keep Safe gives you some protection from your opponent's spells, but also helps with a bit of card draw.

I would want Moss Viper for early creature presence and Maraleaf Pixie for early mana-ramp.

For me, the cherry on the top of this delight would be Hydra's Growth which will give you ridiculously large attacking creatures, very quickly.

That is 9 core cards. 4 of each and a land-base built to support them, should give you a very strong deck.
