Hi All,
I'm needing some ideas for good token generators to add to my Ezuri - Swell the Host! EDH deck. Any and all ideas are appreciated. I already run the below cards which contribute to this effect:
Caller of the Claw, Chasm Skulker, Hangarback Walker, Hornet Queen, Orochi Hatchery, Nissa, Voice of Zendikar, Arachnogenesis, From Beyond

Turntimber Ranger+Xenograft Naming ally. All creatures are now allies, you play a creature, it triggers the Ranger giving you a wolf that's also an ally. It goes infinite until you choose not to get the wolf.

You could also go with a crazy big combo, Ensoul Artifact on Myr Turbine, then equip Illusionist's Bracers. If then have Clock of Omens you can tap the two myr tokens to untap the turbine and go infinite.

Once you get one of your creatures to a decent size Fungal Sprouting can get out of control. It scales great to the later game without any more mana investment.

Avenger of Zendikar is the first thing that comes to mind. Other landfall type stuff like Rampaging Baloths and Sporemound might work but aren't as great. Beacon of Creation is a nice reusable one. Master of Waves would work nicely with decent devotion. Parallel Lives and/or Doubling Season are right up this alley too. Mycoloth would work, just devour the tokens you're making to make more. Hope that helps.

Thanks for all the ideas! I especially like the the sound of Beacon of Creation and Master of Waves, as my deck usually has decent blue devotion. Turntimber Ranger + Xenograft would also be a good idea from the sound of it, and the Myr Turbine combo sounds like it has a lot of potential! Now I'll just have to see what i'd be willing to replace for these new synergies!

It can backfire on you if you're not careful, but Genesis Chamber can work wonders if you're already running a lot of "cantrip" creatures like Elvish Visionary as these creatures help you chain together a series for additional Myr.

Feed the Pack will get you a massive amount of counters. Just sling counters on your Hangarback Walker (any creature will do, even Skullwinder) then sacrifice it to more than double the amount of experience counters you have. Plus, you can do it each turn.

Fable of Wolf and Owl is a great addition for token generation, especially if you are running a lot of dual colored spells/creatures.

Fable of Wolf and Owl is good. Also, Endless Swarm is good if you have a way to make sure ezuri doesn't die.

Master of Waves is probably better than Fable of Wolf and Owl, especially if you run Deadeye Navigator. Deranged Hermit is along the same lines. Eyeless Watcher isn't terrible, either.
Get your benefits as close as you can when you cast, that way it becomes a strong win-con when you have Deadeye or another manner of abuse.
Fathom Mage should just be in your deck. Don't know why its not. Sage of Fables and Etched Oracle are also good ones. Just random recommendations, here.

PookandPie - I'll definately take the recommendation on Master of Waves and Fathom Mage. For the rest, I still have to sort through what are the best options. I'm also thing of replacing one of my counterspells with Voidslime though it is a bit pricey.

Vile Redeemer is basically a reprint of Caller of the Claw plus mana ramp.
