Reki, the History of Kamigawa
Legendary Creature — Human Shaman
Whenever you cast a legendary spell, draw a card.

Since tokens resulting from copying spells are not "created" Bennie Bracks, Zoologist doesn't do much here. Reki, the History of Kamigawa might be a good replacement.
As a general note, you seem a little light on mana if you don't get one of the untappers. I would probably add another land (Plaza of Heroes would be good and might make it in over a basic even if you don't go up lands), Arcane Signet, Kolvori, God of Kinship Flip, and the three talismans.

Personally i just do not like having my opponent drawing extra card. You still got 8 deathtouch creatures plus insects from Hornet Nest and you got Spark Double Majestic Myriarch Nashi, Moon's Legacy Odric, Lunarch Marshal Eater of Virtue Agent's Toolkit . And being a Monarch for that extra draw you do not need when you got Damia, Sage of Stone Staff of Compleation Garruk's Uprising Glissa Sunslayer Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain Kenrith, the Returned King Leinore, Autumn Sovereign Reki, the History of Kamigawa and Shanid, Sleepers' Scourge . But you also have Kaya, Geist Hunter in your maybe board if you really want deathtouch .

Cutting Wasteland Viper is less straightforward to me. I like that it can be used at instant speed to surprise someone with deathtouch, which could mean causing your unblocked creature to create two poison counters with Westley, or it could mean surprise-killing a creature that your opponent thought was blocking favorably. You could even give deathtouch to an opposing creature, taking out a threat when you're not even involved in the combat. And I like that, in a pinch, the Viper could be used to buff Buttercup's power by 1, which could sometimes be the difference between tutoring for the creature you want or not. Of course, all of those are somewhat niche situations and you have to be holding up the one green mana. And if I had one green mana available, I wonder if I would truly choose to hold it up or to simply put the Viper on the board...
As for Spark Double, it's a generically powerful card so it would never be bad. It would be useful to double up on Reki, the History of Kamigawa for more card draw or Jodah, the Unifier to double his buff, or get a second copy of Shalai, Voice of Plenty so they give each other hexproof. It doesn't do anything for the keyword soup strategy since we only need 1 of each keyword on board, but it could copy Westley to double the poison counter we create, or copy Jegantha for even more mana. There's a lot you could with it. Having two copies of Halana and Alena, Partners could also get crazy, as they could buff each other on each of your combats.
And I like that it even gives itself a +1/+1 counter to synergize with Max! That's probably my favorite part. If it dies while Max is on the battlefield, then it comes back at the next end step and can copy something else (or the same thing if it's still around), and it even enters with another +1/+1 counter so it creates a slow loop that can potentially happen over and over. This one might be too good to pass up, so I'll have to find room for it...
I think it has even come down in price as I swear it used to cost more money. Still not "budget" necessarily but it's a reasonable price for what it does. Thanks for the suggestion!

Great theme! (Grand Arbiter is far from a "good guy" imo ;) ) Cavern of Souls for "Human" so hard! (over one of the Lands tapping for your weakest colors; i.e. Blood Crypt/Savai Triome/Urborg) & Reki, the History of Kamigawa > Jhoira. You miss out on 6 draws (which are harder to cast in your deck anyway), but catch him far easier off your "Cascades", considering your curve. Maybe Valki, God of Lies Flip to use their creatures against them? (cheaper for you, + cards like Chulane to check their hands for threats constantly)

Not bad but I feel like you're not taking advantage of the legend aspect enough. Here are some Ideas for that: Day of Destiny,Arvad the Cursed,Heroes' Podium,Captain Sisay,Kamahl's Druidic Vow,Reki, the History of Kamigawa,Kolvori, God of Kinship Flip,Dihada, Binder of Wills, and a few of the Legendary Sorceries (especially Kamahl's Druidic Vow).

Hey, good start, still have 25 cards to cut though which is a lot.
Lets start with cutting noncreature spells and then move to cutting creatures? First cuts to consider:
- Myriad Landscape
- Ash Barrens
- Shamanic Revelation
- Search for Tomorrow
- The Celestus
- Xenagos, the Reveler
You can afford to cut a couple of the subpar lands for five colors. Ash Barrens is fine if you want to spend one mana to fetch a basic land, but if you have to play it as a land then it could slow down being able to cast Jodah too much. Shamanic Revelation is not good draw here for five mana. You're much more likely to have a higher power creature than the same number of creatures equal or more than the amount of power.
There's 40 creatures here, but if I was building this deck I would play only 20 of them which includes both nonLegendary Elders. Some advice to consider is choose the 20-25 best Legendary creatures and cut the others? Since you're not playing hatebears, what you're looking for with Legends are getting value from other Legends or casting spells from exile. How they support Jodah because he's the best attacking creature when you control other Legends.
Using Legendary creatures you're currently playing here's how I would break down the priority areas from Legends to keep:
Those who draw, ramp or find other Legends.
- Sisay, Weatherlight Captain
- Reki, the History of Kamigawa
- Esika, God of the Tree Flip
- Shanid, Sleepers' Scourge
- Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain
- Maelstrom Wanderer
- Rashmi, Eternities Crafter
- Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder
- Niambi, Esteemed Speaker
Those who make Jodah a better attacker.
- Halana and Alena, Partners
- Kamiz, Obscura Oculus
- Odric, Lunarch Marshal
- Surrak Dragonclaw
- Arvad the Cursed
Those who help for recovery from removal.
Those who are support, but don't fit into the other areas.
In place of two of the lesser Legends consider Legend tutors, Time of Need and Search for Glory?
Some Legends within the budget to consider adding:
Good luck with your deck.

This needs lots of help. I'm gonna try my best to help.
I'll start with the easy cuts.
- Atla Palani, Nest Tender this card is more of a build around card
- Piru, the Volatile same as above high cmc
- Darigaaz Reincarnated not strong high cmc
- Cruel Reality high cmc, weak
- Oros, the Avenger bad
- Mayael the Anima a build around card
- Shattergang Brothers isn't gonna be strong here. Is better in a different build.
- Iwamori of the Open Fist bad
- Collective Blessing other better options available
- In Search of Greatness bad
- Instrument of the Bards slow
- Marchesa's Decree will not protect you and doesn't work with the cmdr.
Cards that think are good here.

heinrichgraum says...#3 "If cost weren't a factor the #1 card I want to get for this deck is The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale , which if you do also swap out bitterblossom for Pendrell Mists for a second copy of the ability."
Hello heinrichgraum, you mentioned swap out Bitterblossom for Pendrell Mists and adding The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale . What would you sub the Tabernacle for? The Maze of Ith ?
Also what would you sub out for Carth the Lion ? Would you trade it for Reki, the History of Kamigawa ?
