{Faithless Looting},  {Aurelia's Fury} and  {Bonfire of the Damned} don't belong in here.

You also could probably use more creatures, especially if you want  {Scorchwalker} to smash for 5 to the face consistently. I recommend  {Lightning Mauler} and  {Pyreheart Wolf} or maybe (as of yet unproven)  {Boros Reckoner}
Agreed also consider {skullcrack}

I'm not entirely sold on  {Skullcrack} in this application yet. The problem with  {Thragtusk} is that he is a body, and the problem with  {Sphinx's Revelation} is that by the time it matters you've probably already lost
Not really, Revelation is a stabilizer, there's been many a game that I would've won would I have been able to stop a Revelation. And making Thraggy just a dude is perfect for my deck, I can throw down with him all day. Bant is one of the only decks that messes me up really bad.

If you keep two mana up forever you will loose even if they don't have {thragtusk}
I'm not saying to keep 2 mana open forever, it's just nice to have options. It's a late game insurance policy and an early-mid game pusher. I dig the card.
