I love this deck for its pure 'can you kill this? No? Take 36' factor. Unfortunately its pretty vulnerable to disruption and removal

You will need something capable but comfortable, the best deck still crashes if the pilot isnt totally familiar with how to work it comfortably.
Judging by your meta it looks like you needs something capable of defending against the "one shot" decks (storm, infect and the like)
GW Stompy has the most answers and the best sideboard I feel, and i'm pretty familiar with the deck. Eidolon of rhetoric shuts down the one shot decks, so they would come in from sideboard, with dryad militant mainboard helping vs storm.
