Took my Sydri, Degenerate Genius deck and switched a few things up. Commander swapped for Merieke Ri Berit, we've cut the infinite combos out to make more room for ways to protect ourselves and the thopter combo. In addition we cut Tolaria West to include Minamo, School at Water's Edge as a combo piece with Merieke in order to take control of two of our opponents creatures.

Looking for help on the sideboard. Current options are going into a more stax style of control or perhaps moving the former infinite combos (Thopter + Sword + BSZ or Altar of the Brood) into the sideboard and siding into either of the infinites.

Wincons:
-- Thopter Foundry + Sword of the Meek
-- True-Name Nemesis + Sword of Fire and Ice

Jerk Tactics:
-- Isochron Scepter + Orim's Chant
-- Merieke Ri Berit + Minamo, School at Water's Edge

What I'd like help with:

What sideboard options should I be looking at? The debate is between a stax style control board or a more traditional esper control style. I am completely open to other card options, these are only what I could think of currently.

Stax Style:
-- Ghostly Prison and/or Propaganda
-- Stasis
-- Defense Grid
-- Trinisphere
-- Sphere of Resistance
-- Tangle Wire
-- Ensnaring Bridge
-- Liliana of the Veil
-- Bottled Cloister
-- Pithing Needle

Control Style:
-- Pithing Needle
-- Sphinx's Revelation
-- Far / Away
-- Timely Reinforcements
-- Rest for the Weary
-- Perish
-- Toxic Deluge
-- Luminous Wake
-- Oust
-- Smother
