I would swap the {champion of the parish} for {unruly mob} and possibly use {mousleum guard} and {thraben sentry} or {elguard inquisitor} for some creature toughness and will stop make people hesitate on any creature removal.
The champion is just too big a target for stuff like tragic slip, or early burn spells. Eg. {shock}
Also I would add {silver-inlaid daggers} to this, somewhere.. Even if not on a human they make a huge difference on a disposable attacking token.
You will need to be weary of board wipes, especially things like {ratchet bomb} as it will insta-kill all your tokens.

No no no! Champion of parish is much better than all of those cards you named. Other cards are plain bad. Not everyone plays tragic slip and red, big deal if they burn it. T1 parish, t2 gather 3/3 parish. Other cards you named slow it way down
I would have to disagree, you have very little humans in this deck, so if you are relying on dropping a gather the following turn good luck.
All the cards I mentioned actually fit well in this deck, especially the flip sentry guy. And the mausoleum guard is great after they do a board wipe you hit them straight away.
I have a human deck that was only slowed down by red burn and board wipes, and I usually had them on the ropes or at least very worried by turn 4 or 5.
The thing with unruly mob is you attack with everything else till you equip it with a {spirit mantle} (making it unblockable) they block what they can to limit the damage and he keeps getting bigger. Champion only gets bigger if you can do something about it, not in response to your opponents actions. Making it a very one dimensional card.
Another card worth mentioning tho if you stick with the champ is {thraben doomsayer}
Absolutely right. Parish is way better than all the cards you mentioned, but it has no place in this deck. In a human deck with others double striker 1ww angelic destiny some other WW deck things.
Human decks getting some W cards in AVR.
{Increasing Devotion}?
Also, if you choose to lose the Champion, include {Bloodline Keeper}.
There's more tokens than human in Standard (well, the guy your deck is named after for example) and if you are going for a full on tokenfestation deck, there's other options you should be stroking your chin beard at, eg {White Sun's Zenith} or the white Myr Shrine from Besieged whose name escapes me now.
Is this deck more of a White Weenie deck?
{Shrine of loyal legions}
