Id say put Sire in SB. I think this deck needs some 1 drops.

Ideas:
{Experiment One}
{Rakdos Cackler}

{Elvish Mystic} being able to cast exava t3 and hydra t4 will be helpful.

I don't like Reaper in this build it feels out of place to me ... Maybe add some dorks?

Edit: you have Caryatids lol my bad idk what to add but still I don't like Reaper when for 6 mana you could play a lot of better things

I say bring in Reaper vs control. The game will get to turn 6, where you could play this or Sire and mess things up. That opens some early game slots

Will be updating shortly with what I played last
Night to include sideboard. I went 4-1 and had drop for personal stuff. Wasn't very happy.

Updated with what I played last night. I forgot the deck at the shop, I don't remember the other three side board cards.

A friend of mine was messing with something like this awhile back. He would do this thing where he ramped to turn 3 exava, the next turn he had the capability to drop both a lotleth troll and a scavenging ooze, discard a mana dork to the troll and then eat it with the ooze giving both haste to swing for 3 + 3 + 4. Lotleth troll gets along well with Exava. I don't think I would mess with the savage born hydra or that many reapers. Maybe 3 spike jesters 2 reaper and 2 varolz?

The troll might work, but going turn 4 {kalonian hydra} is way better followed by a savage born for 3, which doubles to six and has double strike. It did great last night. Very prone to spot removal however.

I think it will work. The guile will protect against mono black and against esper. I think it can be pretty solid too.
