+1! Love the deck, do you think a one-of Watchwolf ($0.08) from Ravnica might be more budget and flavorful than Yeva's Forcemage ($0.15)?

Really like the deck idea. From testing, you have too many Forests, and you probably need more card draw to storm off. Cut some of the Forests for 1-mana Elves, since those can accelerate the deck while also putting a +1/+1 counter on Marwyn. They would also give you the option of using Skullclamp for card draw. Adding a Traverse the Outlands should also thin the deck a lot. Grothama, All-Devouring lets you draw lots of cards by attacking with Marwyn, as long as you have something to untap her. Greater Good also works well if you can float mana first. Temur Sabertooth is great as well especially with Paradox Engine.

Swiftfoot Boots is a great way to protect Marwyn and give her haste so you can recast her, though you do need enablers like Greater Good or Temur Sabertooth. Concordant Crossroads is another great haste enabler if you only play it when you want to storm off. Akroma's Memorial is worth a shot.

You could try Primeval Bounty as a way to pump Marwyn even more. Also, creatures that pump on ETB, like Wolfir Silverheart, Verdurous Gearhulk, Yeva's Forcemage, and Briarhorn. With enough creatures, Soul of the Harvest, Primordial Sage, and Regal Force can also provide card draw.

My main suggestion for making this deck more effective is prioritizing. Your deck will run much more consistently if you have less 1 ofs and putting 3 or 4 of cards that really help your deck, so you're more likely to draw into them when you need them.

For example, Yeva's Forcemage, Peema Outrider, Embraal Bruiser, and Harvester Troll don't seem to do a whole lot for the deck. You'd be better off running more of things like Bellowing Tanglewurm.

As for some suggestions of things you don't have yet, I can tell you like casual, so I won't get too in-depth with super-competitive combos and things. If you like Ring of Xathrid, consider Ring of Kalonia. If you have both on a 2-color creature like Lord of Extinction, the ability will stack and it will grow even faster.

On the subject of 2-color creatures, I really like Creakwood Liege for this deck, he'll boost all your creatures and make even more creatures to boost. His ability will also stack for 2-color creatures, giving them +2/+2. Baloth Null is also a solid budget card. Works as a big creature, and gets back some of the creatures you're sacrificing.

I don't think Predator's Gambit will help you much, because in testing I usually had several creatures out, but there are plenty of solid enchantments to replace it with like Gift of the Deity or Aspect of Gorgon.

Hey, you've got some good advice for singles to buy and such.

This isn't too bad a deck for being made out of the cards you've got, and I think probably the best thing for you would be to continue expand your collection with a number of Commons/Uncommons. You'll be able to build decks then with a more focused theme. For example, you've got cards here that work well in an 'Enter the battlefield' deck (Elvish Visionary, Tower Geist, Yeva's Forcemage, and particularly Soul of the Harvest). These would work great with cards like Displace or Essence Flux, which in turn don't work that well with creature enchantment cards. The likes of Rot Shambler isn't a bad card, but doesn't especially fit well into this deck as it stands

Also as a general tip, having a card like Ancient Crab is decent as a cheap blocker, but due to the double colour cost is not ideal in a deck where Blue isn't the main colour.

This is possibly more general advice than what you were seeking, but I'm not really sure what the focus of your deck was intended to be in order to make suggestions that fit, and I don't really want to recommend just buying a load of specific Commons for the money you get from selling really expensive lands either.

As always, GL HF and all that! <3

Well, just to be sure, check the rules. But yeah, that's the kind of stuff I did in mine. Dirty card with Curio. Like if you have Lys Alana Huntmaster in play and you keep bouncing a Yeva's Forcemage and an Elvish Visionary you get infiny draw/buff/elf tokens. That's the stuff of dreams....

I'm thinking about pulling out the Yeva's Forcemages and upping the number of Goblin Glory Chasers, and adding another Titanic Growth or Dragon Fodder.
