I have a deck similar to this one... Not sure I like the Overgrown Battlements in here. If you're spawning Eldrazi, you're going to have plenty of chump blockers. Its ability looks like it might not help that much. Valakut is nifty in this deck. I'd keep it over more basic lands. I'm not sure you need all that mana ramp in this deck. Sure, Furnace Celebration requires you to pay 2 mana when you sacrifice a creature, but if you need to, you can sacrifice another spawn. Plus, nothing in this deck costs more than 4. If you can get more spawn by trimming Harrow and Explore, you'll have more fuel for Furnace Celebration. Have you considered Broodwarden? All those 0/1s becoming 2/2s is pretty intimidating. I run Sylvok Lifestaff in my deck. Once it's in play, it basically reads "Pay 1 mana, sacrifice an Eldrazi Spawn: Gain 3 life and add 1 to your mana pool." If you have lots of spawn, this can regenerate a battered life total pretty quickly.
