I am having trouble linking it, but maelstrom archangel is awesome in 5 color.  One of my favorites, I wish it was legendary.

Watch out for the willbender morphed trap on that one :).   

P.s. - I am having trouble linking cards since the most recent update

Already in there

Just saw that the archangel is already on your list... Again sorry for lack of links... Updated and hasn't worked since...or haven't figured it out lol

Serious suggestion:
Land fixing - all ten original duel lands would be the best... But not in everyone's price range
All ten shocklands
All ten check lands

Look up bloomtender - 2 drop that potentially taps for 1 of every color (5 total)

Elemental theme:
Your commander screams "build around me"
Fun recursion with evoke elementals for increasing options and versatility/flexibility

Lurking predators- perhaps cut the number of spells and increase the number of reusable creatures to maximize both potential plays
   Possibly get a creature that has etb effect for every spell cast by another player... Huge fun in multiplayer.

Warp world - if you don't like the present bard state, this can be a huge swing in the game, especially with etb effects and the possibility to overwhelm immediately with haste enablers... Fun ones like ( akroma's memorial)

A possible sac outlet - insurrection clear everyone's board but yours,

Homeward path - not mana fixing, but stops your big threats from being stolen, see also, bribery... They can try to bribery you, but you can just gain control of your creature

I will keep thinking of cards/ strategies, and post as I think of more. Hope this helps

 {Mundungu} - counter speller
{Acidic Slime}.- etb artifact/land/enchant destroyer
{City of Brass} - all mana
{Notion Thief} - extra draws
{Devout Witness} disenchant/kill artifact
{Legacy Weapon} - exile machine
{Wheel of Sun and Moon} - forever recycle cards
{Sylvan Primordial} etb mana ramp and game changer
{Swiftfoot Boots} - hexproof your .poo.!

I would suggest  {Cromat} over prog unless you have some good mana ramp.

Cromat is also pretty versatile, Progenitus is pretty epic also, but Cromat will be out faster; can protect you from flyers, and you can then elvish piper Progenitus so he could be out turn 4/5 depending on hand/ramp

Enters tapped...

Adding an {Amulet of Vigor} would fix that problem.

Double-O-Scotch

Yes it would...lol

I've been putting the finishing touches on my 5 color EDH deck. I happened to have an Atogatog, a sliver queen and a Cromat/child of alara deck so I've been  thinking about combos for these decks.

{Isochron scepter}
Possibly want a copy artifact enchantment also since you have so many great tools for 2 mana that people sometimes only have one to use in EDH

{path to exile}
{swords to plowshare}
{pull from eternity}
{silence} (add the artifacts untapp during opponents phase for even more hate)
{redirect}
{reverberate}
{counter spell}

{Orim's Chant} is hilarious and cruel with the scepter, especially of you have {Unwinding Clock}.

{Angel's Grace} isn't bad either, not only for it's effect, but sometimes just for Split Second.

u should use all of the different versions of  {Golgari Rot Farm} instead of some of the basic land/ gates becuz it gives u both colors instead of picking which one u want from gates

IntoFire

{Gemhide Sliver} + a  {Door to Nothingness} is always fun.
