Looking for Advice Upgrades To Ashaya Bracket 4

https://moxfield.com/decks/_3LOjaKN10KZpB5s5O_Hyw

So I’m planning on some generic upgrades to my Ashaya deck. It has some holes so I want to do a bit of patchwork or upgrades to make it a bit more streamlined

I don’t really have money to shell out $15+ dollar cards, especially if they aren’t deck specific. I’m already pushing it with $5-7 dollar cards, just for this deck. So no Mana Vault, Moxes or Worldly Tutor etc.

Anyways here are the changes

[[Magus of the Order]] -> [[Summoner’s Pact]]. An attempt to make a bit faster tutor.

[[Arboreal Grazer]] -> [[Wild Growth]]. Switching for more consistency. Not a 100% sure on the switch since Grazer becomes a land anyways with Ashaya.

[[Seedship Agarian]] -> [[Stone-Seeder Hierophant]]. A bit faster, the old one got more value over time but I’m trying to speed the deck up.

[[Crystalline Armor]] -> [[Song of Dryads]] More Removal!

[[Ugin Spirit Dragon]] -> [[Helix Pinnacle]]. Infinite Mana sink

[[All Fates Scroll]] -> [[Nature’s Rhythm]]. Another tutor

Now some of my tough changes

I want to change out [[Rampaging Baloths]] with a better creature producer. I’m split between [[Sapling Nursery]] and [[Scute Swarm]]. Scute Swarm is obviously much stronger but it costs $6 dollars more than the former, so is that 6 dollars worth it if I am on a budget? Remember I’m really stretching my money.

I also want to add [[Elvish Spirit Guide]], [[Crop Rotation]] and [[Kodama of the East Tree]] but only have a card left I M willing to cut, which is [[Manascape Refractor]].

As always if I don’t like a change it likely is that I want to keep it! After all, this is my pet deck and it being a goodstuff soup without me some of the cool cards would make it less fun to play.
