Have got some cards ideas to think about possibly adding to your list

• Doubling Cube to double your mana
• Elementalist's Palette and
• Empowered Autogenerator will produce more and more mana every time you use them
• Bloom Tender
• Circle of Dreams Druid produces more mana for every creature you control
• Gyre Sage produces more mana for every creature or token you cast or make
• Incubation Druid
• Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider
• Esix, Fractal Bloom to make copies of mana dorks

Another thing to consider is replacing your counterspells and creature removal with X drop versions for producing more hydra tokens.

Hi tiffanyann, Doubling Cube has a reprint now, it is on The List since AFR, and is way more affordable now. I miss a few good draw spells, like Rishkar's Expertise (reprinted in AFR Commander), Return of the Wildspeaker or perhaps Shamanic Revelation, the latter might not be the best choice, better in token heavy decks. Lifeblood Hydra is both an X-cost Hydra and a big draw die trigger. For static draw you could also go for Colossal Majesty or Elemental Bond. Also, I see, you don't run a lot of recursions, Bala Ged Recovery  ^Flip, Reap the Past, Eternal Witness, Wildest Dreams and my personal favorite card, Praetor's Counsel, after a board wipe, you might be in trouble rebuilding. A card that has to go in your list is Rhythm of the Wild, it protects your big hydras from being countered, and you'll probably want to give them Haste to swing in. Another auto include is Garruk's Uprising, draw on ETB, Trample for your big creatures, and draw for Hydra power ETB. I'm not the biggest fan of "Genesis Wave" effects, I see you run a few of those. Digging for creatures might draw you into X-cost creatures, they enter as 0/0 and die immediately. Happy Brewing.

Soul Foundry lets you use X as regular mana for whatever is in it. Flameblast Dragon is incredible damage and removal.

I took out Doubling Cube and Mana Echoes because they got really expensive but damn they can give you mana. A token creator with Mana Echoes can easily give you over 100 mana. Wow, nm, they both dropped in price to "reasonable"

Two mana artifacts that may have some additional use: Doubling Cube / Fellwar Stone / Gold Myr / Liquimetal Torque / Ornithopter of Paradise / Robe of Stars / Scroll Rack / Isochron Scepter .

You might also like: Aven Mindcensor / Mirage Mirror / Null Brooch / Geier Reach Sanitarium / Dispatch / Umbral Mantle .

Heliod, Sun-Crowned goes infinite with Walking Ballista . You can tutor for either with Recruiter of the Guard .

Platinum Angel - You're the second or third person to tell me to cut Platinum Angel . It's somewhat of a pet card of mine, but I think everyone might be right. It's probably time I cut it.

Doubling Cube - I would agree Doubling Cube can be slow sometimes, but I've really enjoyed using it. This deck can ramp pretty hard and being able to double up on that mana has proven more than useful quite a few times. The last game I played I was able to make 20 copies of Lotus Bloom , sac them all for 60 mana, and then use Doubling Cube to make over 100 mana. Which then allowed me to make 20 Platinum Angel 's and 20 Lightning Greaves , winning me the game through combat damage. It can also be used as a janky combo piece to create infinite mana. It may not be well suited for a deck that tries to win by turn 5/6, but for a deck that aims to win turns 8/9/10 it's worth the slot in my opinion.

Swiftfoot Boots and/or Whispersilk Cloak - Much like you I would probably cut the Swiftfoot Boots , but keep the Whispersilk Cloak .

Stoneforge Mystic - I'm not entirely sold on this one, but I'll add it to the maybeboard and keep it in mind moving forward.

All in all I'll probably keep the cube but cut Platinum Angel / Swiftfoot Boots for Recruiter of the Guard / Imperial Recruiter . Or maybe keep Swiftfoot Boots and cut Pyroblast , but I'm curious to hear your thoughts on that?

Cards I would consider maybeboarding:

• Platinum Angel - It's nice and all but won't really help you win.
• Doubling Cube - In my testing, I have found this to be too slow. Would like to hear your thoughts though
• Swiftfoot Boots and/or Whispersilk Cloak - hear me out below.

Cards I would add:

• Recruiter of the Guard
• Imperial Recruiter
• Stoneforge Mystic instead of either Swiftfoot Boots or Whispersilk Cloak (I run the cloak) because you can now tutor the one of 6-7 Equipment cards you need/want with Stoneforge Mystic And If you have an Eldrazi Displacer out.... profit.

Wizardhat91 on EDH - Tim Deck

For your consideration, although I'm guessing they were already under your radar, Sigil of Sleep and Suq'Ata Firewalker . If you end up going for the beautifully bureaucratic wizard flavor of Aphetto Alchemist , then Gilded Lotus , Doubling Cube and Astral Cornucopia look desirable for making blue mana to get extra mileage out of Freed from the Real and Pemmin's Aura . Trophy Mage and Tribute Mage could hunt down Thousand-Year Elixir and Magewright's Stone for you. Walking Ballista might be an all too often encountered wincon but it does possess strong Tim-like qualities. The deck's looking good, have fun and happy pinging!

I have a couple suggestions. If you're looking for one big turn of storming Aeve I'd consider Parallel Lives , Primal Vigor , Horizon Stone , and Doubling Cube . You might also consider going for big mana with Incubation Druid and Castle Garenbrig . Selvala, Heart of the Wilds can go infinite with a Temur Sabertooth if she has haste, but without it it's just value to be able to bounce your original copy of your commander and recast it on a later turn and to get more mana and tons of draws as Selvala will see the steady progression of each Aeve coming in slightly bigger than the one before. You may also consider Realmwalker and Maskwood Nexus for additional tribal value.
