Cheap (8$) Green Convoke

Pauper* Budget Pauper Theme/Gimmick

Inspired by Lord_Mykonos's RG Convoke deck, as well as typical WG token decks. I decided to go even cheaper, constructing a deck for under 10$, while attempting to make the deck as mono colored as possible. I used to have white in the deck solely for Veteran Armorer to try to make the deck more resilient (see update).

Mono-Green Replacement Cards:

Fists of Ironwood and Nest Invader replace Dragon Fodder, Raise the Alarm , etc. as a turn 2 token making spell.

Tukatongue Thallid and Blisterpod replace Doomed Traveler and Avacyn's Pilgrim, found in WG swarm decks.

I don't use Spidersilk Armor because it would go above my self-imposed ten dollar budget; hence, Wrap in Vigor is in the main deck and my one drops(Tukatongue Thallid and Blisterpod) replace themselves, helping to ensure I have my mana source for convoke spells.

The eldrazi scion and spawn tokens are especially nice because they can tap to provide mana for convoke, and then sac themselves for even more mana!

Any suggestions are helpful, especially if anyone has advice on defeating elves in pauper, which are extremely prevalent in my meta!

Swapped out the Siege Wurms for It of the Horrid Swarm for more token action! Although emerge does not go well with tokens, I can sacrifice Living Totem and Nest Invader. Convoke works well with emerge because it lets me bring out a high mana-cost creature early in the game. Unfortunately, the only other common emerge is Wretched Gryff , which I can't use....
