Well if you draw your hole deck you can pretty much pick whatever wincon you want... draw all the cards with Archangel of Thune + Fathom Mage + Horizon Chimera and Slip Through Space/Aqueous Form on your waifu or Fling her?

Your welcome hey even got some honorable mentions
Cayth, Famed Mechanist - another trifecta for catergories artifact creatures and +1/+1 counters
Kami of Whispered Hopes or/and Accomplished Alchemist — they are mana dorks for the counters and lifegain catergory kami has way more advantage since it has a hardening scales effect
And without explanation ten other honorable mentions 1. Fathom Mage 2. Pollywog Prodigy 3. Jan Jansen, Chaos Crafter 4. Chasm Skulker 5. Mycoloth 6. The Goose Mother (brief: second hydroid Krasiss) 7. Shadrix Silverquill 8. Winding Constrictor 9. Archangel of Thune
Gonna cheat on thr last one with three but they all do the same thing for Hellkite/production

Last_Laugh, I prefer Fathom Mage over Danny Pink, since her ability has no limit to the number of times that it can trigger, and I actually would very much like to put Magistrate's Scepter in place of Otherworld Atlas, but the first ability simply costs too much mana to activate.

Welcome to both Commander and the Genestealers! I have a deck very similar to this, since the Tyranid precon is perfectly fine out of the box. On a budget, the land base is definitely top priority; I see you're not running any guild signets (Izzet, Simic, Gruul) which on top of ramp can also fix your colors depending on what color balance you end up having. On that topic, with a budget manabase, you may have to part ways with some of the more color intensive spells, as they might get stuck in your hand, and your general only produces colorless. Tribute to the World Tree, Diviner's Portent, etc. having three of the same symbol can be rough on a budget manabase. Fathom Mage is a pretty good draw engine, and you could replace a big burst draw spell with a small burst spell like Quick Study which is better early game and perfectly fine later. I also like Abundance which was in the precon. Shigeki, Jukai Visionary is a card I'm happy to draw every time I see him; he blocks, he ramps, he regrowths, he slices, he dices!
If you're looking for cuts for other cards, two that jumped out that I cut from mine are Bone Sabres and Hierophant Bio-Titan. They're alright if you're already winning, but often I'd rather have anything else than one more big creature.

Do you plan to add any basic lands? Thirsting Roots can be a fast proliferate for cards like Pentad Prism or Fertilid to get your colors. Fathom Mage is a good draw engine especially in proliferate decks. Contentious Plan is also good for proliferating. All these cards are cheap. It seems like you lack control though, but a lot of control cards are staples like Swords to Plowshares so idk if you're intentionally staying away from cards that you see copy and pasted in every deck.

Looks awesome, I was just about to suggest Conclave Mentor but I realized that it is only green, and blue. But thoughts on these Fathom Mage kind of pricy but possibly a good card draw, Neoform I can kind of see this working, and maybe Avatar of the Resolute
Sorry can't think of any more cards, I don't use green or blue a lot but I hope these help!

What about Wizard Class for the infinite combo with Fathom Mage? You could also throw in Benthic Biomancer or Mindless Automaton for some secondary options.
