There were lots of problems with affinity back in the day, but as long as Krark-Clan Ironworks stays banned I think the free stuff affinity gives is not quite up to the rate of the free stuff in Rakdos scam/evoke

But this is Commander, remember, you can play whatever you want

Riddleform and Seasoned Hallowblade are solid, and Miscast is essential, but Essence Scatter would probably be better as another bounce spell, Drannith Magistrate might not be necessary (the deck already felt solid against Adventures), and Shell Shield can be a bit clunky and might be better as more copies of Seasoned Hallowblade or Riddleform

As a general case, I'll always try to abuse the Cascade

Like the preconstructed Commander decks, youll see a lot of new cards for a few weeks, but soon the unfun and tedious cards will disappear from peoples decks
