Also, if you're keeping the Mayor, I'd suggest to trade the Naturalize for Sundering Growth so you can copy the wolf tokens.

Thanks, oh ya I forgot I had that one in there. I am basically trying to see if it would still work in the new standard with the ravnica block and whether ravnica stuff would help it! I've never actually had mayor transform on me in a game so I don't really worry about that.
Thanks for the comment

- Cut Razorverge Thicket and replace it with Temple Garden
- Consider splashing red for Kessig Malcontents , Huntmaster of the Fells Flip and a few other awesome humans
- Knight of Glory is a great way to get early exalted triggers and he is good at dodging a good deal of removal in the format
- If you don't mind moving away from humans, you should definitely consider adding in Loxodon Smiter because he is a great beat stick for 3 mana and with an Avacyn's Pilgrim he can be hit on Turn 2. Just a few decisions

I would get rid of both Increasing Devotion
and Increasing Savagery
. Both are too slow. Some great cards for you would be Selesnya Charm
, Loxodon Smiter
, and Advent of the Wurm
. Also, I would sideboard Sigarda, Host of Herons
instead of mainboarding her. I used to play Selesnya aggro, and I would side her in against control decks. She would wreak havoc. Against aggro or midrange she's going to be underwhelming though. Also, Oblivion Ring
is probably a sideboard card as well.
Another god card for humans aggro is Thalia, Guardian of Thraben . Makes it much harder for your opponents to cast removal to stop you from stomping on their faces. :)

Also, if you add Loxodon Smiter , you can do the following. (I did this more often then you would think.
Turn 1: Temple Garden
, play Avacyn's Pilgrim
. Turn 2: Forest, play Loxodon Smiter
. Turn 3: Forest, play Silverblade Paladin
, bond with Loxodon Smiter
. Play Rancor
on Smiter and swing for 12.
It's much more doable than you think, as I said, I pulled this off on multiple occasions. It's fun. :)

Thanks for all the comments guys much appreciated, I will definitely look into a lot of those cards and end up playtesting and seeing what works best now. Nice to know its not completely borked and looks like it should still work with some tweaks!

Also for the sideboard, just in case you are racing another deck I would suggest Unflinching Courage it is a crazy swing when it is on a creature with double strike like a soulbound Silverblade Paladin with a whole bunch of exalted triggers from Sublime Archangel

You're already pretty good against creature decks, so the Divine Reckoning in sideboard is probably superfluous. I would suggest Voice of Resurgence to hamstring spell-based decks.

I would definitely consider the voice of resurgence, and will probably add it into the sideboard once I can afford it.

Main thing I have noticed in play is that I end up running out of cards around turn 4 in my hand, sometimes 5, so a way to draw cards that doesn't hurt the early momentum would be wonderful.

I like it! It seems pretty strong! I just don't like that Mayor because if he transforms he won't be applying the bonus to the humans, but if it works for you it's okay :)
Razorverge Thicket isn't standand anymore, so I'd suggest to swap it for Temple Garden or Selesnya Guildgate if you're in a budget.
