Initially I have build this deck around Illusion of Grandeur (with Aurora's Creation). But he was just a win more card. I have replaced it with Frog-Tosser and now it functions much better. Reasons for certain cards choices:

Sunken Tower - I used to run two, but found that this deck really needs the mobility to be able compete with blue jump or flyers. Especially in the early game. When you get to Frog-Tosser it is not so important. So if you draw like a God, replace one of them with cards metioned at the end.

Llamacorn - Purpose of Llamacorn is to help with the card draw. So you less likely end up with beast trainer in hand, but no beast. Or plenty of beasts, but no beast trainer, hunt down or tower. The healing helps against burn, but on its own is not good enough to counter it. Therefore there is also:

The Emperor's Command - The deck has problem with too big creatures, so Humbling Vision is a be better choice. But there is, for my taste, way to much burn on the ladder. Command also does not restrict you to go for two lakes or two forests (for green buffs) in the early game and can target structures.

Gagana - Most difficult decision of this deck is where to place the mountain. Because only on that spot you will want to place all your beast trainers. Even if you are flexible to choose your sixth land, it is better to build it as lake or forest, because most of your creatures require those. Gagana helps to mitigate the mountain problem. Don't look at is as six faeria 3/7 flyer, it is six faeria two creatures. And at least one of them synergizes with the boar.

Alternative cards: Ruunin or Fugoro. Just not both of them, then you would need to go to seven lands or rely on Gagana on board. If you include one of them you will lose the flexibility of choosing what your sixth land will be, but both of them have certain benefits. Dying Ruunin will help you to have target for beast trainer. Fugoro can help with card draw, but Crystal Dragon is also a good choice.
