Notes
 
Suspension Field: I opted for a second suspension field over the fourth Hero's Downfall because I value the mana efficiency, especially with so many ETB tapped lands in my mana base.

Herald of Torment: This allows us to go over the top of green decks, esp. with Hornet Nest out of the sideboard.

Sorin, Solemn Visitor: The lifelink seems super swingy.

Despise: Very mana-efficient way to combat green decks, and also gets planeswalkers (another reason I felt more comfortable trimming a Hero's Downfall).

VS Mono-Green:

In: 3x End Hostilities, 1x Pharika, 2x Drown in Sorrow, 1x Hornet Queen, 1x Herald of Torment
Out: 4x Courser of Kruphix, 4x Siege Rhino

VS Mirror:

In: 2x Reaper of the Wilds, 1x Hornet Queen, 2x Herald of Torment, 1 Glare of Heresy
Out: 4x Courser of Kruphix, 2x Elspeth

VS Jeskai Tempo:

In: 1x Herald of Torment, 1x Glare of Heresy, 2x Drown in Sorrow
Out: 2x Elspeth, 2x Suspension Field

VS RG Monsters:

In: 1x Herald of Torment, 1x Pharika
Out: 2x Sylvan Caryatid

VS Ascendancy Combo:

In: 2x Erase, 1 Unravel the Aether, 2x Drown in Sorrow
Out: 2x Suspension Field, 2x Abzan Charm, 2x Elspeth

Random notes: If we REALLY need to kill something, we can bestow Herald of Torment onto it and then activate the monstrous ability on Arbor Colossus.
