-2 Essence Scatter, +2 Rapid Hybridization, -1 Kiora, the Crashing Wave, +1 Garruk, Caller of Beasts
I keep fluctuating between rapid hybridization and essence scatter in my sideboard. Neither of them are ideal, and I have no clue where to go from here. Kiora has been consistently bad and Garruk is far more crucial to my deck's game plan, thus the switch to the full 4 Garruk's. That makes for a lot of 6 drops, but it feels right. Honestly, I have no idea where to go with this deck anymore, been tinkering with it for a few weeks now, and it seems REALLY good like 60-75% of the time and then REALLY bad the other 25-40%. Can be very draw dependent. Elvish Mystic is a card that I've been wavering on. Turn 1 mystic, turn 2 courser, turn 3 poluk is the nut but there's sooo many times when I have tap lands and a mystic, and im stuck playing mystic on turn 2 which is pretty much terribad. Really looking for some help here, might just shelve this bad boy for now though.

Maybe consider using 4 copies of Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx so you can activate with one, lay another to blow up the original, and use the floating mana to activate a second shrine for super monstrous shenanigans! For even more, drop Kiora and play a third copy of the shrine! Activate for 43 mana and make 21 21/21 Hydras!
