I'd cut it to 3  {Snapcaster Mage} and 4  {Boros Reckoner}.  {Boros Reckoner}+ {Blasphemous Act} is a great combo. Throw in a couple  {Boros Charm} and you'll get there. That's the deck I run and won my last FNM.  {Azorius Charm} dose nothing but good things too.

The reckoned blasphemous act combo is good
And I had played with it like that but I found that I never really could get the combo to actually resolve
They would always get rid of my reckoner before I had blasphemous act or something
So k decided to take out a reckoner for a snap aster just so I could get more use out of the non flashbackable cards

You just can't throw out your reckoners drop 3-5. You got to wait till you have all the pieces needed. Geist is a great way to distract them and keep them off your reckoners. Turn 6 you can play the reckoner by turn 7 you can def play blast act. Just a suggestion. I go up against tons of contort at my comic shop and have been doing work. It's at least side board worthy. Only suggesting what I see working.

Also if your going up against an annoying agro deck it's a lot cheaper to play blast act. And typically wipes their board and kills them or takes them down super low. Then Boros charm them for the win.

A little off topic here. Why don't we see any  {Stuffy Doll} in these blasphemous decks?
