Golgari Counters FNM Standard

I want to integrate Elvish Mystic for mana ramp to speed up my deck a bit. Trying to figure out what to pull out.

Here is my thought pattern

  1. Dreg Mangler I spend an awful lot of time trying to add counters to my little creatures and would hate to lose a hasty 3/3. Especially if my ramp let's me play it on turn 2.

  2. Grisly Salvage is in there to either help me with mana ramp or to surface a creature I need. Plus it usually throws a couple of creatures into the graveyard that I can scavenge with Scavening Ooze or Varolz, the Scar-Striped

  3. Experiment One , Scavenging Ooze and Lotleth Troll are my 3 creatures that get big quick so I don't think they are an option.

  4. The deck as built around surfacing Varolz, the Scar-Striped . There is a bit of combat in how I scavenge with both him and Ooze but that usually works itself out in real game play.

I feel like this deck is a minor tweak away from sdoing better than the 0.500 it is batting at FNM.

Help would be greatly appreciated
