What would be good to replace the Dragon Mantle with?

Lightning Talons vs Madcap Skills? Thoughts?
The Vastwood Hydra may come in handy. It would add 2 devotion to green for each one. However, is it worth it? Essentially the same cost as Savageborn but without doublestrike or any way to add counters later on. If I were to consider adding Vastwood, what would you recommend removing?
Would the Gyre Sage really be helpful you think? I would have to get him out early, and then cast something without it being countered before it could even start generating mana.
I had not actually heard of Ring Of Kalonia, but I am trying to keep the deck standard. Thanks for the suggestion.
In combination with the arbor elf they ramp the mana faster. They can lead to a turn 2 with 4 mana floating as long as turn one is an arbor elf. It also adds card draw.
Here is my elf deck:http://www.mtgvault.com/penguin42/decks/elvish-rampage/It is legal in modern. Tell me what you guys think and I'm open to any suggestions!
Have you considered Coppterhorn Scout to untap after attacking so you can retap for mana or +1/+1 counters or Quest for renewal to give the equivalent of vigilance?
Why wouldn't Leyline be a good play? Potentially start with it and all elves start as x/x+1 making them harder to burn plus life gain. And the Copperhorns help the Immaculate magistrate combo with Joraga to allow me to put counters twice on my turn or to elf vomit in second main.
I also took out Fertile Ground and Overgrowth for Utopia Sprawl. Pay for themselves or more early game with an Arbor elf. Turn 1: F + Arbor ElfTurn 2: F + Utopia Sprawl (on untapped F) + Tap the enchanted land twice because arbor elf and you have 4 floating mana turn 2 after spending one.
I am looking into replacing the Elf Eulogist with Rhys the Exiled and maybe a Leyline of Vitality because they are more repeatable and I get more tokens in this deck than anything else so Elf Eulogist isn't as useful. Ideas, suggestions, comments?
I like the idea of the Triumph of the Hordes. Kills the indestructible creatures and only need 10 over not 20.
