Just wondering what you guys think of this. It's my first real deck I've made myself, I was keen to theme it and thoughts humans would work best.

This includes the sideboard as well as I didn't know how to separate it.

Much better than the first deck I tried to build! God, it was horrid.

A few things though.
You can make the sideboard by dragging the cards down to the bottom of the screen in iMTG's deck builder or pressing the plus symbol above the sideboard section.

As an aggro deck you want to be fast and using all your mana every turn. Therefore lands that come into play tapped are to be avoided whenever possible. This usually means that your 1 drops and 2 drops should be all the same colour as much as possible.
This unfortunately means that using Ash Zealot and Phalanx Captain together will result in a lot of times where you cannot play both.

Both red and white have excellent 1 drops and I would recommend using at least 8-10.

Totally agree with this statement. Might be able to replace one or the other with {young pyromancer} or another less mana intensive 2-drop

If  you lean more towards whit you could go  {Precinct Captain} instead of ash zealot

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I think precinct captain will fit best just because I can target him with the white protection spells and create some free blockers.
