Thoughts on my Selesnya with Troll Splash Aggro
Deck Help forum

Just looking for more looks at the current state of my deck. Currently the focus is on Selesnya (green and white) with black ONLY for Lotleth Troll and [Varolz, the Scar-Striped]]. Earlier I splashed way more black and it was becoming a nightmare on occasions when I get the wrong colors and it has severely hampered my games to defeat without any chance, which is a major flaw in deck design. So I focused the black only on the trolls, retained my land distro and revolved my supporting spells and sideboard around Selesnya primarily.
I would like a good look at my sideboard overall and any other thoughts on what I have currently in terms of design. I am open to considerations even if it means going Golgari and splashing white etc. Would like to consider as many possibilities. The whole point of this deck is ultra hyper aggro with mid-game capabilities (able to hold my own after the initial rush).
Here it is:Selesnya Troll Beatdown
Rehauled my sideboard and removed Karametra, God of Harvests and Bow of Nylea and replaced them with 3rd Varolz, the Scar-Striped , 4th Boon Satyr and 2x Ready / Willing .
Still considering for the 2x "bomb slot" whether or not to replace the 3rd Varolz and 4th Boon Satyr with something else, but not quite sure. Still thinking about 2x Scavenging Ooze or 2x Advent of the Wurm , would like some opinions or judgement between these 3 options. Ooze would be great vs other Oozes and gives me another option outside of Varolz to take advantage of dying creatures and still helps reinforce the hyper aggro playstyle but can also see Advent of the Wurm being able to throw people off or surprise people, but it cannot be used for Lotleth Troll or Varolz. Maybe my original plan is still good i.e. 3rd Varolz and 4th Boon Satyr? I don't know thats why I want outside perspective.
Also want a good look at my sideboard still.

So currently my considerations are either to keep Karametra, God of Harvests in deck or to remove to add in other potential bomb-like cards or perhaps even something like just more aggro and speed. I feel like I have enough speed and I think I really would like something thats 4-5 mana cost that can have a large immediate impact on the board to help me finish. Felt Karametra was my best bet but could use other ideas as well.
Before Karametra I was utilizing a 3rd copy of Varolz, the Scar-Striped and a 4th Boon Satyr as my mid-game bombs but feel I can use a little more versatility/variety. Another consideration is also Scavenging Ooze especially vs other Scavenging Oozes but I am open for many things in regards to these 2 mainboard card slots.
