This spell costs less to cast if you control an Otter.
Draw two cards.

Chart a Course seems better than Pearl of Wisdom, as the condition seems easier to fulfill and the base MV is lower.

Stormcatch Mentor is like, good, but you're not really getting a ton of use out of it. I mean you have 12 spells it reduces the cost on. 3 of those already have a cost reduction, situationally removing generic mana from their costs (Light Up the Stage). Those same 3 are the only spells costing more than one generic mana also because Pearl of Wisdom already costs 1 less with Stormcatch Mentor in play because otter.
I haven't played pioneer so take what I say with a grain of salt, especially since I also don't know what good budget options in the format are, but I would say you could probably do with 1 less Stormcatch Mentor since having multiple in play at once doesn't really do anything at all for the deck. Alternatively, throw in a spell that stretches your mana curve a bit and has big impact on the game. Jaya, Fiery Negotiator is already more midrange-esque as a 4 drop, so maybe a 5 cost instant or something like that could fit well. It shouldn't disrupt the deck's flow too much since you can usually cast it reduced for 4, sometimes even 3 mana. Again, I'm not sure what that would be. A big burn or card draw spell comes to mind but I don't know what's in pioneer I really just play pauper lol. Something along the lines of Thunderous Wrath or Lorien Revealed (I know these aren't legal) come to mind as fitting well if this were pauper.
