Rapid Hybridization

Instant

Destroy target creature. It can't be regenerated. That creature's controller creates a 3/3 green Frog Lizard creature token.

Rapid Hybridization would be another good addition, or Omnibian if you want to splash green. You could also use some card draw/selection, but I can't think of any on the frog theme...

Bring to Light seems great in this deck. It can be an extra Sage of Hours or really whatever you need it to be with a 4c mana-base. I would also suggest running some counterspells and removal at 1-2 cmc. Swords to Plowshares is the most obvious omission in your colours. Rapid Hybridization / Pongify are also solid options. Some storage lands might be better than the vivid land cycle.

I think one of the biggest improvements this deck could see would be in the mana base. Breeding Pool (cheap thanks to RNA), Simic Growth Chamber (works great with Tatyova), and Flooded Grove would be great additions. Some more of the cycle lands could also be useful, like Tranquil Thicket and Lonely Sandbar . I recommend removing Transguild Promenade because in a two color deck, it's just not great. Myriad Landscape is a land that can also serve as ramp. Simic Signet also provides ramp.

Explosive Vegetation can most likely be replaced by Skyshroud Claim . While it can only get forests, it can get a Breeding Pool and the lands come in untapped.

You definitely need both more removal and more card draw. Rhystic Study has already been suggested, but Harmonize or Rishkar's Expertise would also be great options. In terms of removal, Beast Within, Rapid Hybridization , Naturalize , Baral's Expertise , and Imprisoned in the Moon are budget options with a lot of utility.

Wilderness Reclamation is a new card that acts as a second Seedborn Muse. Also, this might be a deck that can make Mass Manipulation work, since you can generate and store so much mana. Hydroid Krasis is super expensive right now, but if you can manage to get your hands on a copy, it'd be fantastic too.

First thing I would recommend adding is Thousand-Year Elixir . It's a really good haste enabler on abilities (since Mairsil can eat artifacts). From there you could look at adding the Pili-Pala + Grand Architect package on top of the Dramatic Reversal / Isochron Scepter (if you're going for infinite mana). From there I would recommend looking at a small number of outlets, however Blue Sun's Zenith is pretty decent for that since from infinite mana you can draw your deck and go from there. Whispers of the Muse will also let you draw your deck however isn't a combo piece.

If you want to use your Keeper combo, I would recommend cutting Phenax - I don't think it adds enough to the deck outside of the combo. Infinite beats or infinite ETB damage is enough, Phenax just feels like a wasted card slot.

Card advantage is super important - Ponder , Preordain , Impulse , Brainstorm , Lim-Dul's Vault , Ad Nauseam , Mystic Remora are all really good cards.

For ramp, you will want a bit more than you're currently running. Dark Ritual , Talisman of Dominance , Dimir Signet , Fellwar Stone , Simic Signet , etc. are all really good. You can also look at adding Mind Stone . You can sac it and then eat it with Mairsil, giving him a self sac outlet if you do need to reset him for later on.

For removal, Toxic Deluge is generally better than Damnation . you also have Rapid Hybridization , Pongify , Chain of Vapor and even some flex cards like Terminate and Dreadbore .

Fabricate is a pretty good artifact tutor that I think you could find space for.

Temple of Epiphany and Wandering Fumarole can upgrade the mana base a bit for not too much $$ investment. Sadly, U/R duals are the most expensive out there as Steam Vents , Sulfur Falls and Spirebluff Canal are all $10+.

A piece or two of targeted removal may be in order as well: Chaos Warp , Pongify , Rapid Hybridization or Curse of the Swine I especially like the exile part on Curse.

No counter magic at all? I know some tables can have a real visceral reaction if a deck runs an oppressive level of counters but would Negate / Swan Song to stop that one big spell that just blows people out of the water be out of place?

I will add my vote for Mirage Mirror being great and not just for cloning artifacts but for becoming whatever you need it to be at the right moment. Clone whatever is the best threat on the field or change its type in response to removal to have it sneak away unscathed.

You have two copies of Abrupt Decay . Rapid Hybridization could be a good replacement for one of them as it's both cheap removal and can be used on your own Protean Hulk if you need to kill it, say after an Eldritch Evolution .
