Prophet of Kruphix deck (new, help please)

Unknown* Budget Casual GU (Simic)

RAIC


I'm kinda new at magic, so I could use some help. I want to build a Theros G/U deck around Prophet of Kruphix. It's quite squishy, so the deck should be able to work without it. Furthermore I want to be able to draw extra cards, because being able to play so much during the opponents turn, if the Prophet sticks, will cause a deck to lose gas quickly. I added a bunch of scry to cycle through the deck quickly, and make it more likely to draw the things I need.

The Shipbreaker Kraken and Nemesis of Mortals are for late game, and the monstrosity combines well with the "extra" mana the Prophet gives. Sedge Scorpion is for holding down the board early game, and useful as a 1 mana creature removal late game if you can flash it in with the Prophet's ability. I've added some bestow creatures because they're both useful early and mid game. Dissolve and Griptide are there for more control/removal. Ordeal of Thassa is there for card draw and buff creatures. Aqueous Form is for consistent scrying.

I need some help to finish this deck. First of all, the curve seems a bit wonky, and I'm unsure about the manabase. I'd also like to have more card draw. I have space for 4 more cards, for which I'm considering Triton Fortune Hunter . Other things I'm unsure of: The amount of each specific card in my deck. Whether to include aqueous form or not.

I think the deck will be able to work just fine with 22 lands, but I'm unsure how to divide the colours. I'm quite heavy into blue, but I'd like early green for the Scorpion and the Dryad.

Updates Add

I've added the 4 Triton Fortune Hunter I was considering and the suggested Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx (for 1 Forest and 1 Island), replaced the Nimbus Naiad with the Thassa's Emissary and took out 2 Aqueous Form and 1 Ordeal of Thassa for 3 Sylvan Caryatid. Still considering the other suggestions.
