I want to try more green ramping, but more about maximizing Karn's Sylex.

So I want land-based threats that the Sylex ignores so I get maximum advantage. It feels like this means New Capenna sac lands with Aftermath Analyst and land tokens from Awaken the Woods.

Goldvein Hydra is fine to get destroyed by the Sylex, more ramp for me. Shigeki, Jukai Visionary might be a weak ramp, but it can dodge the Sylex or rescue a key card from the graveyard.

Omenpath Journey seems maybe decent given you have the sac lands to put under it. Put a Forest, a Ridgeline, and three sac lands under it, and you're probably good even if it gets removed. At worst you only really lose the Ridgeline while you still thinned out 5 lands from your deck. I think I like it better than Invasion of Zendikar   for this deck.

I can probably rely on the sac lands fetching other one-of basics so I can support something like a Worldsoul's Rage.

Rebuild the City is a good combo with Restless Ridgeline. I can fit it in.

This might be a good shell for Roaring Earth. Turn 2 Analyst, turn 3 Roaring Earth + sac land is solid if you can pull it off. More sac lands on further turns or aggressive ramping speeds up the pumping. Pumping is good for Hydra especially. The channel part is potentially a surprise finisher in a late game when you have lots of lands in play.

Tatyova, Steward of Tides ups the threat level on the lands.

Slickshot Lockpicker is doubtful, but you can park it in plot land for a while which dodges the Sylex, and it lets you reuse the Rage or the Awaken

Maybe Green Sun's Twilight is a positive in this deck. With lots of lands in play this helps dig out a creature to set up a threat for the land advantage.
