okay, where to start, 15 land seems way too low, especially considereing the 7 mana creatures and 3 green mana needed for half the big guys. doubling chant is useless here since almost all of your good guys are one ofs, also essence of the wild seems like it would be better suited in a deck thats built around tokens (imagine mixing it with squirrel nest or beacon of creation ) and it will remove the abilities of your other creatures that have good abilities. Outside of that, I don't know, maybe try to find an idea for your deck, a strategy of how you want to win with it and work from there.

Hey Jasper. Since you have decided to switch to blue/green, I have some advice.
First off, as oreo said, 15 mana is too low. Maybe 10/10/4 Islands/Forests/Harbor.
Your early game is okay, but in order to get the power cards that I'm assuming you hope to win with (such as Primordial Hydra, or Stormtide Leviathan), you should add some cards in.
First of all, again, as oreo said, doubling chant and essence of the wild are completely useless in your deck.
Other cards you could really use to speed up your mana curve include Elvish Archdruid and Seeker of Skybreak to untap an elf giving even more mana, especially if you untap elvish archdruids. Boundless Realms also might be a good pick.
Other than that, you need a victory condition, instead of just some random cards piled together.

Yeah, or Chronomaton.
But you still need to update your deck list, as it still says you only have 13 basic lands.
Also, you should autocard your deck, so people dont have to look at the second post.
