Essence Flux

Exile target creature you control, then return that card to the battlefield under its owner's control. If it's a Spirit, put a +1/+1 counter on it.

Arcades EDH

Some upgrade suggestions:
You're playing way to less lands. Go up to at least 38 Lands.
Ramp:
Add more ramp (in sum you should end at around 9-11):
- Arcane Signet
- Vine Trellis
- Sylvan Caryatid
- Sunscape Familiar
- Overgrown Battlement
- Rampant Growth
- Farseek
but cut Kodama's Reach wtih execption of Axebane Guardian the ramp should help you get out Arcades at round 3, if possible.
Protection:
Replace Intervene with a flicker spell for one mana. Same effect but better synergy with commander. For example:
Replace Miscalculation with Arcane Denial
Replace Remove Soul with Displace or even better a board protection spell like:
Replace Seedling Charm with one of the following:
- Ajani's Presence
- Loran's Escape
- Tamiyo's Safekeeping (not exactly a budget option compared to the rest)
- Restoration Magic
Removal:
Replace Solemn Offering with Stroke of Midnight
Add an additonal one-sided massremoval like Slaughter the Strong
Backup for Commander:

+1 for the comic strips, those are great!!
For commander synergy, have you considered insant Blink cards? You could set the number to whatever the opponent just cast, Blink onto the stack, it resolves first, and triggers the commanders ability.
Things like Ghostly Flicker, Essence Flux, Blur, Planar Incision, Displace etc

Added a 1-drop and have settled on Faerie Seer for now.
Can help to find the cards I need early, and later to be sacked to Flare of Denial to further protect Abhorrent Oculus if i dont have Essence Flux or to counter a big threat from my opponent.
Presenting lethal on T5 more consistently.

Thx for the suggestions capwner. That is indeed a nice synergy.
I have gone back and forth on having another big dog. When I had Vesuvan Shapeshifter in here before fleshcrafter was a thing, I toyed with Sagu Mauler as a back-up to oculus.
I suppose any big morph creature could work since I can flicker with Essence Flux.
Little cheesy but can get the job done.

Hey man, have you considered adding more rituals & mana rocks to this list? With the Commander being a 7-drop, you need all the mana you can get.
Consider finding space for Arcane Signet, Mana Vault, Talisman of Dominance, Talisman of Creativity, Talisman of Indulgence, Fellwar Stone, Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, Culling the Weak & maybe even Drain Power.
Essence Flux & Dauthi Voidwalker are also really great here, & some Reanimator pieces like Reanimate, Animate Dead & Necromancy could help maximize on Xander's 2nd triggered ability.
