I'd second that you have a shortage of creatures in the deck. Right now an average card draw would be 16% creature, counting Batterbone. This limits a lot of options when 33 cards (15 artifacts, 4 instants, 10 enchantments, and 4 sorceries) in your deck require a creature you control.

There is a lot of mana ramp and card draw in this deck, which is great! Running low on cards midway through a game kills the momentum. But the odds are that you will draw cards that augment your creatures, more than you will draw an actual creature.

Additionally, you have three cards that deal with flying creatures, not counting the five fight cards. This feels low to me but you will know your competitors better.

For card suggestions, I would look into cards that summon creatures as a side-effect. Dreampod Druid, Fists of Ironwood, Fungal Sprouting, Jade Mage, Sporemound come to mind. These are just examples that bring in Saprolings, but your 33 cards that augment creatures would easily beef up the tiny 1/1 tokens.

Since you're in casual, there's a lot of heavy hitting cards you could add (budget permitting). Doubling Season improves the turnaround rate of spore counters and gets you more tokens, although it is itself expensive. Something cheaper with proliferate like Evolution Sage could accomplish a similar goal. Aura Shards is a potent alternative to single-use Naturalizes for Selesnya, with Nullmage Shepherd being a more budget pick. Skullclamp is an insane draw engine if you keep your tokens at 1 toughness. Or if you don't want to, Intangible Virtue can stack with Sporecrown Thallids to get out of hand quickly. As far as creating tokens, there's Aura Mutation, Dreampod Druid, Fungal Sprouting, Korozda Guildmage, Saproling Migration, Thelonite Hermit, and the powerful lord Tendershoot Dryad. If you want generically good Golgari removal, cards like Assassin's Trophy and Fatal Push tend to see a lot of play. Personally, I like Crippling Fear for tribal decks and Tragic Slip for decks with sacrifice synergy. Speaking of sacrifices, I know from experience in commander that both Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest and Ghave, Guru of Spores make for nasty combos with Mycoloth. Such a strategy would also make creatures like Tukatongue Thallid more valuable than spell counterparts like Sprout or Fungal Infection.

The cards I'd look to cut first would be Rending Vines, Wear Away, Wrap in Vigor, Wurm's Tooth, Mwonvuli Acid-Moss, AEther Web, and possibly Fists of Ironwood unless you add more cards like Dreampod.

Bronzehide Lion, Sigarda, Host of Herons, Danitha Capashen, Paragon are pretty dope

Also, you could go the Divine Visitation route with your commander, ajani's chosen, archon of sun's grace and Dreampod Druid

Also would recommend Reliquary Tower since you got so many VALUE engines and Hall of Heliod's Generosity

Not sure if you're still looking for some help but I saw a comment from you asking for recommendations on this deck. If you're still going with the idea of Voltron I'd personally cut cards like Cold-Eyed Selkie , Dreampod Druid , Giltspire Avenger , Nylea's Colossus , Qasali Pridemage , and Whitewater Naiads . Everything but the Druid and Colossus don't have synergy/good enough synergy with enchantments in my opinion and could be replaced with stronger enchantments or auras. Other creatures that I think could go are Kestia, the Cultivator and Kitsune Mystic . Kestia because with a voltron gameplan you aren't going to be going wide and you even have cards that make it so you only want to attack with one creature so 6 mana to Bestow just for +4/+4 and one cards a turn isn't worth it in my opinion. The Mystic while nice probably won't do much since you want just about everything on Tuvasa so moving auras around doesn't help you out.

For non-creature spells the board-wipes, Phyrexian Rebirth and Winds of Rath could be replaced with spot removal or counterspells but I'd say this is personal preference. Last cut I'd say would be Aura Shards because while it is a good card if you take the recommendations to cut down on creatures you probably won't trigger it very often so a strong aura or other enchantment will do more for you.

Other than that all I can say is you might want to try out Open the Vaults for if you get milled or Tuvasa dies while a ton of auras are on her. I also want to make it clear this is my opinion and I'm not some competitive Tuvasa player. These were just my ideas of how to make the deck into more of a voltron deck like the comment I saw said the deck was.

Yikes! There's a reason even the most permissive format only allows one copy of Sol Ring. In that case, you probably should run 4x as well, just to keep up.

Hypothetically, if I were adding black to this deck:

• Cryptolith Rite I would replace with Dark Ritual. Cryptolith doesn't provide any direct effect and is probably too slow if your opponents are running instant ramp spells.

• I'd probably cut Dreampod Druid entirely. While its ability is pretty solid, it takes a bit of work before it starts paying off. This would make room for Slimefoot and a sacrifice outlet.

• I'd also cut Harmonize for Gitaxian Probe, even if you don't have any blue mana sources.

Well, first I would consider not having one of a bunch of different cards unless you're making a commander deck, if you cut down on the number of cards but add more of the ones you need, you can get a more reliable game. Since this is supposed to be a token deck you should definitely remove Lone Rider  ^Flip it's doing nothing for you here.

As far as the cards go, if your looking for budget token duplication you cant go wrong with Growing Ranks. But if your willing to spend a little more a much better option would be Parallel Lives or Primal Vigor.

I would replace Verdant Sun's Avatar with Soul Warden or Trostani, Selesnya's Voice and get rid of Ulvenwald Observer you can get "some" big tokens but not enough to really make him useful.

you should also consider focusing you're token generating more. right now the deck is kind of all over the place creating small numbers of random tokens. it would be more effective if you added cards like Verdant Embrace, Darien, King of Kjeldor or Dreampod Druid. (I personally like pairing Alpha Authority + Dreampod Druid to give him some extra protection.

However, if you want to keep the big creatures and have a deck more focused on power and toughness instead of massing tokens, you should consider Giant Adephage, Mycoloth, Verdant Force and my personal favorite, Worldspine Wurm as some more budget options.

Some other cards you might want to consider are Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage so that you can populate on command, and Voice of Resurgence if your willing to spend the money. that card is very good at deterring your opponent's from messing with your side of the board on your turn.

Hope this helps a little :)
