Cool deck!

I think 3/4 of the Niv-Mizzet cards would do well, and synergize really well with feywild visitor, netting a free token with every card draw (This goes infinite with skullclamp I just realized) Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius is 2 mana draw a card at instant speed, Niv-Mizzet, Parun is great, and Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind is a bit slower but would still work well. Parun and Firemind also both go infinite with Curiosity. They're all a bit expensive mana-wise, but if you're making enough treasure tokens that should be fine. Very cool idea!

Is the choice to no run Curiosity deliberate to avoid a 2 card combo?

Your list looks very well optimized, nice work! Do you own it in paper? I'd love to play against it with my Isu deck via Spelltable. That would be a Snowy battle for the ages.

Isu works best with as many Snow permanents as possible for his top deck dig ability, but I also built mine for Control and Landfall. I'm going to see if I can tweak it a bit though to get a few more Snow permanents in it.

Jorn seems more flexible since he's not as locked to the number of Snow permanents in the deck. He doesn't have the built in Draw that Isu has, so I see you're getting that elsewhere.

Since you're concerned about Jorn getting his attacks through, I could recommend Curious Obsession / Curiosity / Aqueous Form. Not Snow cards, since TBH the Snow card pool is pretty limited. But those are highly useful Dimir style Unblockable / Draw Auras. And I'd imagine you're keen for as much Draw as possible since Jorn lacks that.

The Great Henge is also a possibility, it's not hard to get a Snow creature with 7+ power. Then it provides mana, life, buff, draw, seems like it could be great for both our lists. My deck is based off Icewind Dale so it could represent the great tree of Kuldahar. I know you've got Tribute to the World Tree which is also a great card, but perhaps this one is even better?

Great ugly ping deck - I am happy to see the commander as a threat from the past! Maybe add Mind Over Matter as wincon: with Curiosity it is twice as many damage as your deck size left...

I would cut Font of Mythos, Howling Mine, Master of the Feast and Temple Bell - not one of those cards does enough to win you the game. Forced Fruition is a trap also - it usually reads "let them combo off by giving them every card they need to win on a single turn, without being able to do enough damage to stop them."

Nekusar works best when he is hyper explosive, tossing mass damage on the field through wheels. Instead of wasting your time with these small, incremental damage, you really should be looking to add Dark Deal, Windfall, Winds of Change. Whispering Madness, etc. Teferi's Puzzle Box is another high impact card that should be a must-include. Phyresis, Glistening Oil, and other ways to confer Infect will drastically will increase your odds of winning. Cards like Curiosity add huge card advantage. And auras like Helm of the Ghastlord and Sigil of Sleep can use Nekusar to help lock out opponents.

Cut the lifegain cards like Ivory Tower and Elixir of Immortality, as well as combat-focused cards like Akroma's Memorial. None of those do anything for your actual gameplan.

You also could stand to get your average mana cost down. Seizan, Perverter of Truth, for example, is synergistic, but five mana is steep and the card slot would be better off as a wheel.

I'd say maybe using etb creatures and Ashnod's Altar to sac them, get mana to pay into making tokens, get etbs on tokens. All of the incarnations would work great (though maybe kind of salt inducing) to evoke Fury ping mana dorks, sac to ashnod's, gain mana to gain a token. I don't think Ashnod's Altar will go infinite or anything, but could be a good value engine.

Also, just random cards

Clarion Spirit if you are using etbs and casting creatures will just randomly get you value and spirits

Kabira Takedown  ^Flip because you might have lots of creatures and if not it's just a land

Curiosity effects like, Reconnaissance Mission and Thopter Spy Network and Grazilaxx, Illithid Scholar

Also, any token deck loves Cultural Exchange as a finisher : ) Get your etbs and value cheap and then trade a whole bunch of 1/1s for an opponents best board.

And way off topic, but I feel like Zinnia should be a plant or tree folk, because for real : )

Drannith Magistrate, Deep Gnome Terramancer, Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar, Ohran Frostfang, Veil of Summer, Silence, Legolas's Quick Reflexes & Conqueror's Flail could all be great here!

Also 1-drop card draw enchantments like Curiosity, Curious Obsession, Combat Research, Keen Sense & Sixth Sense trigger twice with Double Strike, and get out of hand really quickly!
