Budget biomancer bant deck

Would love comments and ideas. Here's what I thought as I put things in:

  • Master Biomancer to power up and make every creature basically immune to damage-based removal as well as make dorks buff
  • Coiling Oracle & Fathom Mage for ETB advantage that can be abused with blink cards
  • Mystic Snake to counter boardwipes and annoying creatures
  • Roon of the Hidden Realm to gradually grind out value + carry +1/+1s
  • Spark Double/Stunt Double to ramp up Biomancer growth faster and/or copy ETB effects
  • Cackling Counterpart can double up as an ETB card (especially Mystic Snake) or just stack another Biomancer
  • Ephemerate can protect cards as well as cheaply abuse Coiling Oracle
  • Inspiring Call can help refill hand and protect the board in its earlier stages
  • Teferi's Time Twist can put a +1/+1 on your first Biomancer and greatly speed up the ramping process while protecting against targeted removal
  • Rancor is a very cheap way to make your extra snakes/fathom mages/biomancers useful and pressure the opponent
  • Overwhelming Stampede is a backup wincon if Roon can't get big enough or you don't draw in to Rancor

Maybes:

  • Altered Ego is nice but very similar to Spark Double. Might be worth including anyway as a mana sink?
  • Body Double can copy a biomancer that has been killed or a nice target in another graveyard; seems really good but don't know where to fit it in
  • Eternal Witness is great for ETB abuse but double green hurts a bit; again, no room in the deck
  • Mirror Image is cheaper than the other ETB clone cards but I'm torn on it vs. Spark Double.
  • Progenitor Mimic seems really great but it feels like a win-more.
  • Prophet of Kruphix gives everything flash and feels like it could help this deck out a lot, but feels kind of disgusting to use.
  • Restoration Angel has flicker on a flying body but the cost feels high for this deck. Still nice to have another way to instantly use Snake again.
  • Vizier of Deferment can blink away opponents' cards too, but has a higher cost than I'd like.
  • Vizier of Many Faces is nice because you can do it twice, but I think Spark Double might be better for the deck.
  • Momentary Blink is repeatable but for higher cost, which might be too high for the deck.
  • Voyager Staff is a nice 1-drop but I couldn't find room for it.
  • Ramp junk (cultivate, sakura-tribe elder, wayfarer's bauble) are alternatives to the tap lands for hitting Plains, but I don't know which is better
