So i originally planned to have 2 multi melta attack bikes, but they will not arrive on time for ard boyz this saturday, so im wondering what to do to fill the 100 points(my only idea is adding another predator with twin linked lascannon and dropping melta bombs on the SM sergeant)

Make your bolter scouts close combat; pistols and blades since they will be riding the storm. Give the Sgt a PF. I've been amazed how many times these guys win combat (yeah, your chump scouts get beat on, but the PF Sgt plays havoc on his attack).
Why Lysander? The only thing he adds is bolter drill (but your shooty SternGuard are in a razorback so Lysander cant fit in) and bolster 1 ruin. You can only use 1 IC/HQ for tactics. If you take Lysanders "stubborn" you lose Vulkans twin-linking and mastercrafting.
If you want Lysander for the etenal Warrior MC killing ability (and you have the extra points) you may as well take calgar (AP1 bolters to drop a wound or 2 then finish him with the dual fists). Plus you can take Calgar in regular armor and stick him in the RBack with the SGuard.
In addition you have zero Psyker defense. Eldrad will own you and the current GK meta will chew through your Squads without even blinking an eye.

Life isn't fair. But wouldn't it be worse if Life were fair, and all of the really terrible things that happen to us were because we deserved them?

Thunderfire cannon.

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood.

Lysander is going with the shooty termies, but i suppose i could swap him for a libby with null zone and gate, and looked into the thunderfire cannon, but i dont really want to shell out $50 for a model i probably won't be using very often =/

plus Bolster defenses give the sniper scouts a 2+ save(Telion gives them stealth)

Yeah, he can help them with those SB shots. But not the A-Cannon. Unless you teleport (and if you put them in reserves the Rhino with your only teleporter dies first...hello mishap) your foot slogging across the field. Lance Spam/Long Fangs/Laserbacks will take that unit down to Lysander PDQ.
As for Bolster, your assuming you will have a ruin in your deployment zone. Go check out some pics of different Tournies. Terrain (ruins) can get pretty scarce. Bolster and stealth don't help against flamers either.
Don't get me wrong...I love Lysander and run him alot. He's 16-0 on killing Daemon Princes. But in your list he is alot of points for not much gain. Dumping him lets you pick up a Libby, maybe another Land Raider. Then you can add a second TH/SS termie unit; or keep the shooting termies in deepstrike mode and put the teleporter with the combat scouts and stick them in the land raider. AV14, scoring, and able to bring big support in close.
