I find it generally difficult to board with this deck. I'm still in the progress of figuring out how to handle a prepared meta. As you said we have to sacrifice either parts of the combo or speed and I don't like to sacrifice speed, so I tried to bypass the hate so far. This deck is not that good being reactive without speed. With just 12-14 mana sources without Petals and Rituals you better draw good.
My current experimental sideboard looks like this:
4 Stronghold Gambit
4 Harsh Scrutiny (gets their creatures into the yard and scry 1 helps to find Gambit/Random Fatty)
1 Elesh Norn
1 Iona
1 Pithing Needle
2 Sensei's Divining Top
2 Meltdown/Crash
Always estimating the worst: Leylines of the Void. So the plan is to get their creatures into the gy, reanimate them and eventually put a fatty via Gambit onto the board. I don't say it's exactly the ideal solution, but all in all it provides the proactive mboard playstyle.
Edit: Leylines of the Void appears in my sweetest dreams. (No one. Ever.)
