First change was to pull the play-set of Soldiers of the Pantheon, and replaced with Sylvan Caryatids. The opportunity to drop a turn 3 Siege Rhino and a turn 4 Wingmate Roc, made this an easy swap.
The other change was to take out the Ajani, mentor of Heroes and replace with a Garruk, Apex Predator. There were multiple times I found myself holding either a Steadfast or Mentor while the other was on the battlefield. The addition of the before mentioned Caryatids made up for the increased casing cost of Garruk over Mentor. Also, having Steadfast on the field with Garruk was often end game with Ajani ramping up Garruk's ultimate quicker.
