I agree that G fits her better as a support color than W does.
Sure- GU does fatties well, and Kiora was designed to represent that.
However, this is only one facet of GU.
There is also the Kruphix, God of Horizons take (the sum of natural plus unnatural power),
as well as the Prime Speaker Zegana take
(using nature as a path to greater understanding of the world in general).
Additionally, astronomy is just nature on a grand scale.
Tamiyo has been obsessed with astronomy as long as we've known her,
so it really wouldn't surprise me horribly to see them take that approach.

Tabak has said that there's no Investigate in ENM (Once a giant tentacle abomination is attacking your home, there's really nothing else to investigate) so I don't think Tamiyo will have anything to do with clues.

Something like this would be great.
The last ability should probably be worded like Isperia, Supreme Judge,
but this seems very playable yet balanced.
EDIT: change the second ability to "tapped nonland permanent" or she's way too good.
