Well, yeah, when I think aggro I think all the 1 and 2 drops with things that buff my team and turn things sideways. Now that it's green devotion it is a different archetype all together.

Define "too much money"
For instance is brimaz considered too much when you already have 4 windswept heath and 4 collected company?
I would drop

3x avatar of the resolute
4x reverent hunter
4x swordwise centaur
4x elvish mystic
4x boon satyr
1x hornet's nest

In their place I would put,

3x new gideon
4x knight of the white orchid
4x consul's lieutenant
3x anafenza, kin tree spirit
3x brimaz, king of oreskos
3x vryn wingmare

For the sideboard I would put,

3x hallowed moonlight
3x tragic arrogance
2x archangel of tithes
4x plummet
3x back to nature

Damn, haven't seen a pool this bad since my theros sealed pool. I would guess you played some kind of jund weenie aggro. I guess this since your only removal/ playable control is in those colors, as well as your bombs. I am on a phone at the moment so I can't really build.

Charbelcher runs 1 stomping ground. you reveal cards until you reveal a land, with no land the ability never resolves and the game is a draw.

I would suggest 2 tasigur over 2 gurmag angler.
Go for the throat over murderous cut, is more reliable at being a cheap removal spell against amulet bloom and splinter twin.
I'm not sure how to feel about goyf in a deck with so much delve, since delve will likely make goyf smaller. I would rather main snapcaster or dark confidant over goyf for this deck.
Illness in the ranks shits on twin. If the match up is poor you should definitely sideboard it.

That is just my 2 cents, if the deck is working well then ignore the previous statements.

I am a bigger fan of doomgape over supreme exemplar, since you can then justify splashing black for rite of consumption.

How many decks played ojutai that weren't esper control? if this deck is good in the meta you're in then cool. just saying that ojutai shines in control and is decent everywhere else.
If they turn 3 crackling doom to kill your caryatid then that is a doom not aimed at thunderbreak. Crackling doom was good because it killed siege rhino. Now we have roast. Yes you take 3 to kill an opposing thunderbreak, but unless you're under 8 life, 3 damage is nothing.
There is a reason the only top 8 deck to see ojutai was control.

Ball Lightning was in fact printed as a common at it's first printing, much like rancor making it perfectly legal in the pauper format. I'd throw it in over Battlegate Mimic since you only run 8 spells that are both colors.
Porcelain Legionnaire is also really good, I'd say he's better than yearling since it is a 3 power creature with first strike, which makes blocking risky.
You should also drop 2 Pacifism for 2 more madcap skills and the other 2 for 2 more lightning bolts.

I think you should drop white for green. 4 Caryatids and 4 Coursers right over Mantis Rider and Orator of Ojutai.
Why? Because Courser has a fat butt that really slows down aggro and gives you card advantage by helping you not top deck lands. Caryatid also helps stop this and helps ramp and color fix for your beefy dudes. A turn 3 Thunderbreak feels oh so good.
You could then drop Ojutai for another stormbreath and thunderbreak. Or keep them in and rely on Caryatid and Confluence to color fix for you.
The reason I recommend these things is because Ojutai is an all star in control but seems fairly mediocre in this deck.

But I'm a but biased and love playing green, so +1 from me.

Krosan grip is usually the go to. Split second makes it basically uncounterable. Dromokas command is good, but it does't hit vial. Abrupt decay is usually the way I go, but you aren't running black.
Qasali pridemage is really good. instant speed removal on a stick.

Thalia is a great toolbox card against all those decks. it is a 2/1 first strike that blocks aggro like a champ, makes counterspells more expensive and makes storm combo a lot more expensive. she is an instant removal target for all three decks so having 3 or 4 isn't terrible.
Against jund it makes their abrupt decay and thoughtseize less valuable.

Would highly recommend cavern of souls.
I would drop 4 mayor for 4 imposing sovereign ( does work against splinter twin)
I would also drop 2 student and 2 javelineers for 2 aegis of the gods and 2 aether vial.
Then 2 avacyn pilgrim for 2 more aether vial.
Also should drop 2 gather the townsfolk for 1 more elspeth and 1 more thalia.
I would mainboard precinct and crusader over accorder.

All of this is to basically keep your deck fairly aggro while have mainboard tools against twin and amulet bloom. I'm not sure how you do against blue white delver or tron, but this should be the best way to have game against the meta. I also don't know what your meta is like so this is just my 2 cents.

Flamekin harbinger is good. harbinger into chaser, attack, sac chaser to fling or it gets blocked andyou trample for a lot, harbinger drops back into play, find another chaser. repeat.
