Okay my bad, perhaps replacing all Rise & Fall wasn't called for. Let's just say I'd prefer to run 3x Forbolka and 2x Rise & Fall. When I played with my Ladis deck I often overcharged myself, and not to mention you have to pay another 2 life for Rise & Fall, which quite hurts.

Dragon Thunder pretty useful to counter most size 1 monsters like Dragon World's Thousand Rapier Dragon and Danger World's Gargoyle when they strike on the first turn. We can't cast Glacies when we don't have size 3 on our field, right? Also if you face any Sieger deck, this can burn down your opponent's Vragos if he calls it (which often happens in my area for some reason). Plus, Dragon Thunder is free anyway, so you got nothing to lose.
