Hi. Nice Deck list.

Have you thought about Crystallization, Bant Sureblade or Naya Hushblade. They'll give you 3 triggers for just two Mana.

Clout of the Dominus could also be nice with Aragorn.

Wild Cantor gives you 2 triggers for free and sometimes could give you a missing white or blue mana.

Oh, and jou get a +1 just for playing Coiling Oracle, my favorite card in Magic :)

Baraka

{2}{B}{R}{G}

Legendary Creature - Tatarkan Warrior

Double strike

{1}{G}: Baraka gains indestructible until end of turn. Tap it.

Chop Chop Blades - Whenever Baraka deals combat damage to a creature, put a -1/-1 counter on that creature.

2/4

Create a wedge version of the Alara Shardblades (Bant Sureblade, Jund Hackblade, etc.)

Bant Sureblade is a blue card (blue, white and green) which means it's illegal in this deck. This is also why every card you have that generates mana of any color generates blue mana. Just remove the illegal card form your deck and the rest fixes itself.

Did some playtesting - with the right start this is really strong! Couple of things I'd say, is that Silkbind Faerie really didn't add anything - I'd reckon Somnomancer would likely make a better include, or maybe even Plumes of Peace. While Ethercaste Knight was nice, it wasn't all that impressive - Bant Sureblade might be a better inclusion. A couple of Deputy of Acquittals would be handy, too, and Galina's Knight would make a neat sideboard card. I also reckon you'd benefit from one or two Secluded Steppes.

Neat deck!

Sangrite Backlash , Jund Hackblade , Sewn-Eye Drake , Grixis Grimblade , Trace of Abundance , Naya Hushblade , Esper Stormblade , Crystallization , Bant Sureblade , and Thopter Foundry . I found these cards by searching the set that the cards you mentioned are in

This list is pretty close to the traditional 'little kid green/white' lists from a long while back, but it will need some tinkering and a clearer gameplan.

There are a bunch of options; Bant Sureblade , Dromoka's Command , Dryad Militant , Emmara, Soul of the Accord , Gaddock Teeg , Huatli's Raptor , Naya Hushblade , Oath of Ajani , Qasali Pridemage , Gnarlwood Dryad , etc.

In particular though, Pelt Collector is another four experiment one, which lets you drop your curve lower to the floor and run Dryad Militant . Qasali Pridemage is an answer to bridge, which is practically mandatory in this meta. Gnarlwood's deathtouch helps answer the wealth of 'huge creature turn two' decks out there.

If you aren't running removal, this means you are always racing your opponent, so you should look at your clocks and try to win as fast as possible- modern is full of both combo and aggro decks structured like this. Traditionally naya for Wild Nacatl Loam Lion and Kird Ape is the thing, but going to three colours on a budget manabase is tricky- especially if you want to go fast.

More midrange strategies with budget mana tends to be more relaiable- Keep your turn 1-2-3 plays in one colour and accelerate into a duel colour 5 drop. Great 5 drops like Thragtusk are cheap. 'Get bigger' creatures like Warden of the First Tree and Hexdrinker are readily available, and cards like Oust or Oblivion Ring fix a lot of problems. Birds of Paradise has gotten expensive over the years- for pristine playsets. Check the damaged lists out there- there are a lot of cheap copies in circulation.

I'm 95% sure due to Niv's wording that 3 color stuff and even things like Bant Sureblade are not 'exactly those colors'.
