I would seriously consider replacing the  {Hopeful Eidolon} with something else, just not a very effective card.

You underestimate the little spirit. He pretty much does what he is supposed to in the deck. He can get big quick turn two/ three 4/4  7/7
Then later he bestows and helps the namesake.

{experiment one} works very very well with ordeals. Might be able to wiggle him in. He'd fit very nicely with all the counter growth

And {abundant growth} over {Nylea's presence}, unless you decide to run a play set of {chained to the rocks}.

How do you compare {Nylea's Presence} vs  {Verdant Haven} In this situation?
Personally love that card, either t3 drop to hit 5 mana on t4 or it can also drop well on t4, leaving you 2 mana still free for something else?

Ya know I like the presence. Personally its not about ramp as much as The card draw, helps me set up sphere. I don't really need the life gain with my attackers giving me that advantage.
And with chained to the rocks in SB It helps to have four more mountains.
