Notes:
This is a deck by Justin Crandall on starcitygames I thought looked fun

You seem to have enough mana fixing that {Voyaging Satyr} shouldn't be necessary.
That would free you up to play 3 {Voice of Resurgence} or 3 {Banishing Light}, just things that will progress your board state instead of getting mana flooded.
I would also drop {Chandra, Pyromaster} and potentially both {Elspeth, Sun's Champion}; if you're not playing full on burn or full on control, then they really have no place here (especially when your heaviest color is green and these two cost double red and double white to place).
That frees up 3 more slots! These could be used for {Boros Charm}, more {Selesnya Charm}s, or even {Gruul Charm} (because it's always funny to swing out and cast this so that no grounded creatures can block.....for the win!).
Dat domri dope
Yes, {Domri Rade} would be a nice replacement for any/all of the planeswalkers I mentioned.
I've seen all the people that run naya only run white for removal spells and that's about it
They mostly run xenogas, domri , and {garruk, caller of beasts}
I would leave 1 elspeth in, personally. Cut the Chandra and the other elspeth for voices/ banishing lights, like LadyGrixis suggested.
I never ran Garruk, Xenagos, or Domri in my Nayas. But then again, my Naya was enchantment-based and all it wanted to do was hit you in the face for 3 turns then kill you. Lol.

I know that feel. That's what mine does
I like the interaction of chandra and kruphix i would keep her in there

You can read bout the deck choices here...I personally think elspeth needs to stay thou I have been thinking of cutting Chandra
So I playtested this list against my fiance's Dega Remove, G/R Monsters, and Jund Monsters competitive decks.
This thing always seemed to win! I lost 1 out of 15 games against the Dega Removal, simply because I couldn't rip a {Selesnya Charm} to deal with his {Obzedat Ghost Council}. Otherwise, I always had answers.
I think I'll take this to Standard this Wednesday an Thursday for more feedback :)
Awesome :) let me know how it does...I'm still in the building process
Luckily, I'm an avid collector; and since my fiance plays competitive Standard, we have like 8 of every card in this Standard block. So I can build things! :D

Also, did you use this list exactly or did you tweak it?
I played with the same list; however, I plan on making a few tweaks.
I originally swapped out {Voyaging Satyr} for an {Elvish Mystic} (because I wanted that early 1-drop mana ramp); but I found out quickly why they used the Satyr over the Mystic. If you get {Ajani, Mentor of Heroes} out and plus the Mystic, it only becomes a 4/4 and dies easily to spells like {Mizzium Mortars}, double {Shock}s, or a combination of any red spells that create damage in the form of 2's. The Satyr, however, becomes a 4/5: Just enough toughness to make someone have to waste better spells, like say an {Ultimate Price}, {Dreadbore}, or an {Abrupt Decay} to get rid of it. At least, this was what I took away from my matches.
{Fiendslayer Paladin} subbed in WONDERFULLY over {Keening Apparition}, considering G/R Monsters and Jund Monsters ran mostly creature/planeswalker heavy (aside from maybe a Xeni-god or the occasional {Boon Satyr}). And the fact that he is protected from red and black spells makes him a JERK to get rid of (especially when you start piling on the +1/+1 counters with Ajani).
If I take out anything, it will likely be the {Voyaging Satyr}.....I'm just not sure what to add in that slot. It needs to be a 2-drop or a 1-drop. But I have no idea what would be best. Perhaps a {Soldier of the Pantheon}? Or a {Fencing Ace} (that Double Strike combined with Ajani is wicked)? Or maybe a {Dryad Militant} for early game? Or perhaps even a {Judge's Familiar} to keep spell-heavy decks in check? No clue.....
I like the idea of judges familiar...helps vs control as you stated and is useful as a few pings or a flying chump blocker (nothing gets to me more than being taken down by fliers) lol

I agree, or you could pump him with Ajani and he can trade with a Stormbreath! Lol. Thank you for posting this decklist. I love it when I look at a list and I think it's ridiculous; then I play with it, and it proves my initial judgement wrong!
These are the changes I've made so far:

Familiar cannot trade with stormbreath. Dragon has pro white :(

Ooops, wasn't noting that in my thought-process. I was only thinking Power/Toughness. I traded the Judge's Familiar out for a {Scavenging Ooze} though; seems to be working nicely :)

The only differences in mine and your tweaks is I left Chandra in and only have 2x scoozes and in the side I took out anger of the gods and deicide and added 3x {nyx-fleece ram} (I even made the elspeth for assemble swap) lol

HAH! That's awesome! {Assemble the Legion} is just too good not to be a 1-of in Sideboard. And I've definitely been considering the {Nyx-Fleece Ram} for the lifegain/blocking abilities; but with so much enchantment removal out there, I'm a little hesitant. I also left in the {Deicide} for those match-ups against Mono Blue where you really need to just get rid of all the Thassas. It's like a {Slaughter Games}, but for two mana! The Chandra, I just feel is an afterthought. Sure, I could pig pig pig someone as a win con; but I decided that an extra {Selesnya Charm} was more beneficial, just because it's a lower CMC, instant speed, and it gives more options.
Dem Scoozes make me so happy! They're usually the first to get popped by my opponent; but that's great, because then they waste removal on a 2/2 instead of my Stormbreath or my Polukranos.
You could always destructive revelry
Costs 2
Destroys enchantment or artifact and deals 2 to opponent
So i think that's a great card that might it in this deck
Just a thought

Great card indeed; sadly, it doesn't affect the gods since they're indestructible. That's the only reason cards like {Deicide} and {Revoke Existence} are better, because they exile instead.
I actually decided to go with revoke exsistence for the simple fact it will get rid of {pithing needle} (which would cripple this deck) as well as the gods
Edit: as a sideboard option
I'm just talking for when you Knock those annoying orzhov, esper, bant, and azorius control snobs down to 2 or 1 and they decide to dsphere or whip of erebos
You get the win if they aren't all tapped out
It's all a matter of preference. I don't prefer Destructive Revelry for several reasons. The first I've already explained. Secondly, the other two cost a white mana and one of anything else, so there's a little more wiggle room instead of one red and one green.
Just a simple question for LG here - why is {Concordia Pegasus} in the maybe board? Is it some secret tech or something.

It's interesting isn't it? I was skimming through all of the creatures that were CMC of 1 or 2, and the fact that it's a 1/3 (fair toughness) flyer made me consider it. Because if it gets to the point where you can buff him with Ajani, Selesnya Charm, or Unflinching Courage, then it becomes a 3/5 or a 4/6, which is always nice. Sadly, it can't trade with Stormbreath; but I'm a sucker for anything horse-related, so it will remain in the maybes :)

Although, those are all ifs. I usually make a deck that has cards that are good without an "if clause"
I have made a deck that's good without an "if" clause. That's why it will stay in the Maybeboard....... Again with personal preference. I like the card; doesn't mean I'm going to put it into a competitive deck. I don't really need to be reminded of that ;)
Tweaked my version a bit more and posted it under naya bigrange (forgot I changed the name)
