: You may put a land card from your hand onto the battlefield.

Any reason you're not running The Gitrog Monster in here, it seems staggeringly synergistic unless I'm missing something? Another one to consider is Baba Lysaga, Night Witch, it's a tap ability, and you've usually got spare creature tokens and lands, add in some treasures or clues and you are going to draw a ton of cards. There is also Braids, Arisen Nightmare, hitting each opponent for a land can hurt some decks, especially if Braids can do it a few times, when you eventually get 3 cards for a land, it'll feel pretty good I think, but netting 2 opponent's worst land and getting a card back is also worth a land.

Maybe Thunderfoot Baloth or Blossoming Bogbeast? Maybe not enough 'bang for buck', but Siege Behemoth can let your Commander get in as if it's not blocked, do you often end up over 20 power?

Stuff like Sakura-Tribe Scout or Skyshroud Ranger can be useful in a landfall deck, especially if you've got some card draw going on. There are also a few more, Scaled Herbalist and Llanowar Scout that are pretty budget. Since you might not mind pitching a land to dig one out, Silverglade Pathfinder can ramp you if you pitch a card, slow but grindy value. Oracle of Mul Daya is pretty cheap at the moment, a decent card if you run enough lands, Augur of Autumn and your Commander will only need 1 other power to let you play creatures off the top of your deck, that seems solid.

It's pretty high end, but I feel like you'd struggle to add more passive value generation to this deck than with Field of the Dead, that card is just so much synergy. Another to consider might be Ashaya, Soul of the Wild, then all your creatures are also landfall (other than tokens).

Great deck, I hope some of these ideas work!

Hey, play more budget lower mana cost ramp that has interaction with Aesi? That way it can potentially be cast before Aesi to help to cast Aesi, but if it's cast after Aesi then it gives you draw.

There's a budget combo you could play with Aesi to draw as much of your library as you want.

Scaled Herbalist taps to put Simic Growth Chamber onto the battlefield, then Retreat to Coralhelm untaps Herbalist. Chamber bounces itself back to your hand and repeat. You can do the combo at instant speed on an opponent's turn as long as Scaled Herbalist or Llanowar Scout can tap and you have Simic Growth Chamber or Guildless Commons in hand. With Aesi draw cards on an opponent's turn and then cast those spells on your turn.

You could take the combo much further with Lotus Cobra or Tireless Provisioner to make infinite mana. Avenger of Zendikar, Rampaging Baloths or Sporemound make infinite tokens for a wincon.

Inventors' Fair might be worth making room for. It can find your sac outlets. You could include Darksteel Citadel, Treasure Vault, and Tree of Tales to ensure that you're able to use the Fair.

These might interest you too: Sakura-Tribe Scout, Skyshroud Ranger, Llanowar Scout, Budoka Gardener  Flip, Scaled Herbalist, Walking Atlas, Terrain Generator, Deserted Temple, Tranquil Thicket

I'm loving the changes, but you currently have 2 copies of Soul's Fire. You also might want to add some more cards that give you an extra land drop like Druid Class, Walking Atlas, and Scaled Herbalist. You might want to switch some lands out for these upgrades. Lands are extremely important but I feel like my hand is only lands when I play test this deck. Other than that though this deck is actually quite fun to play.

Hey, well done for a first deck. You have good card sense on a budget and you've even included Rimewood for Farseek, nice. Sol Ring and Arcane Signet are staple budget mana rocks in Commander to consider adding.

I see Retreat to Coralhelm, but I don't see the missing piece to the Retreat landfall combo. Budget Llanowar Scout or Scaled Herbalist tap to put a land from your hand onto the battlefield thus you can untap one of them with Retreat and repeat. These creatures let you put a land from your hand onto the battlefield at instant speed to trigger Aesi on opponent's turn. The last piece of the combo is Simic Growth Chamber or Guildless Commons. The land can bounce itself back to your hand and repeat.

I see Kodama of the East Tree; if you add Meloku the Clouded Mirror then you have another landfall combo. Any basic land can be repeatedly bounced and played to create infinite 1/1 Spirits. Tap a basic land to make one mana, use that mana to pay for Meloku and bounce the basic land you just tapped. This creates a 1/1 Spirit which triggers Kodama, put the same basic land from your hand and repeat.

There's a secondary sea monster theme here which Ominous Seas would expand on. Seas has interaction with Aesi since you put a counter on it each time you draw a card including your first draw each of your turns. Combine Seas with Retreat combo to make infinite 8/8 Krakens. Whelming Wave can be a blowout since Aesi is a Serpent. Bounce all opponents creatures leaving just Aesi and any other sea monsters still on the battlefield. Wave is nice Fierce Empath to bounce it to then cast it again to tutor again.

Teferi's Ageless Insight lets you draw an additional card whenever you draw a card. For each card drawn means that if you have an effect that draws more than one card such as Brainstorm you instead draw six cards. Yavimaya Coast, Bant Panorama, Blighted Woodland are some budget land upgrades to consider.

Some cards to consider cutting:

Good luck with your deck.
