You could try adding more arboreal grazer against flyers and for a bit of ramp rather than spiders. Btw what spider did you add arista?
I could for sure. I have such a love/hate relationship with Grazer in this deck. I love it in the opening hand, I hate it anywhere else. I wish I could run 8 Aegis Turtle. I am actually thinking of droping the 2 Grazers for 2 Merfolk Secretkeeper. It would prevent the possible turn 2 Huatli though. Right now there are 2 Sporecap Spider in the side. Again very meta dependent on that choice. If you come up with a Bant List post it up.
The tinkerer/brewer in me wants to fiddle around with 2 copies of Permeating Mass in the Grazer slot as a sort of pseudo-unblockable effect. Wish it had Flash as well. I think that may be stretching things though.
What about running Ornithopter as a flying blocker and a zero Mana body
I've thought about it but it dies to Shock, Stomp, Disfigure, Dead Weight and Wild Slash. That 3rd Toughness is pretty important. If there was an 0/3 flyer for 1 cmc I would be very tempted.
Hmmm. Could it still work as a sideboard card vs flyers or do flyers decks typically run those spells
I'm sure it could be a good 2 of in certain metas. If your critters are big enough they are going to plow through any flyers too quickly for it to matter. High toughness equates to pressure, toughness of 2 and 3 gives your opponent time to stabilize from those attacks in my estimation. I will keep it in mind of course.

That's an interesting thought for sure. There are some other Bant lists out there. I'm not a big fan of 3 color decks in Pioneer but that shouldn't stop anyone from trying it.
Why not?
Less consistent mana base. 3 color is harder to pull off and harder to consistently have the right mana available. Again shouldn't stop anyone from trying it, probably won't be me at this point.
The manabases seem pretty consistent to me but it does feel really bad when you don't have the right colors
You pretty much described inconsistency of manabase.
3 color will always be less consistent than 2 color which is less consistent than monocolor. Personal preference, I prefer a more consistent manabase. No real 2 color fetchlands in the format now, it will change if they do.
PS: Also swapped in 3 Back to Nature even though it hits AF because I have been running into the GW Enchantments deck a lot recently. Without it that matchup may be unwinable. Damping Sphere is out for now. 2 different Spiders with reach in versus a lot of blue heavy decks I am seeing as well.

Aetherize seems like possibly the weakest card as it is only good against aggro decks and most of the time this deck seems like it would outpace other aggro builds
It is but I match up against a fair amount of go wide decks in my playgroup. Again its all meta dependent. In the UW version those slots become Settle the Wreckage a far superior sideboard card.

Right now I am running into a bunch of UR Arclight Phoenix decks and a lot of Prized Amalgam decks and GC really shuts those down if they don't have an answer. It may be wise to do a 2/2 split of GC and Soul-Guide Lantern and drop the Damping Spheres or Aetherizes. SB is very meta dependent for sure.

I have also been fiddling around with a UW version I call Fat Azzorius. Entirely similar to the Simic version with a couple of changes and it opens up white for the sideboard for greater options post mainboard.

I hadn't considered colorless mattering for ugin because I haven't played many matches and seen the meta. Other than being legendary tetsuko actually seems far better than phase dolphin and passwall adept because it gives the whole team unblockable and it costs 1 less mana for the same toughness and it doesn't need a toughness=damage effect to start chipping away the opponents life.
Yep I am running 4 Tetsuko right now as we converse.

If it were me I'd take out tide drifter and maybe Paswall adept for phase dolphin. Tide drifter only seems to synergize with itself in this deck.
It is one of the weaker cards in the deck for sure. The allure is basically a 5/5 for 2 cmc. Phase Dolphin gives the upside of a second unblockable creature but at 3 cmc for effectively a 4/4 it isn't jumping the curve as an attacking 4/4 on turn 4. Drifter can basically be an attacking 5/5 on turn 3, and that's above the curve for creatures at that point. I have been trying Merfolk Secretkeeper as a 2 of in that slot. T1 Secretkeeper, T2 Assault Formation swing in as a 4/4 is decent. Blue and Green don't offer a lot of variety in the way of high toughness at 1 or 2 cmc so options are limited. I may try Phase Dolphin out to see what happens, thanks for your thoughts.
I need to put Dragon's Eye Savants into the Maybeboard. It is one toughness higher than Tide Drifter at 6 vs. 5. One last note on Drifter. It is colorless and Ugin is definitely a thing in Pioneer. Maybe it would be better in the sideboard as a 2,3 or 4 of.

The goal of the deck is to drop low casting cost, high toughness creatures that then turn into huge threats after dropping an Assault Formation or Huatli, the Sun's Heart. Lifegain from a -2 activation off of Huatli with Charix, the Raging Isle or even from the 5 and 6 toughness creatures with a Dive Downor Tower Defense cast on them can pad your life total for a couple possible turns versus certain decks. A fast start of Aegis Turtle turn one into Assault Formation turn two can lead to an attack of 5 damage. Turn 4 wins are possible against a few decks. Charix has a targeting tax built in. Surge Mare can sneak by all those pesky green creatures in the format. Lastly Access Tunnel can give you the evasion needed to squeeze through that last bit or even 17 to 22 damage if Dive Down or Tower Defense are used. Sideboard is a work in progress right now. But Charix is a fun new toy for this archetype.
