I have been wanting to build a deck like this for quite some time. I assume you are wanting to stay on a budget, though I can't help but mention that Champion of the Parish would thrive in this deck. Also bringing in Burn at the stake into deck instead of the sideboard. Using battle hymn and even Infernal Plunge would be good ways to get the mana you need rather quickly. Also, Cloudshift the Malcontents, that could prove to be devastating as well. I really love the deck!

I moved traitorous blood and doomed traveler down to 2 and added 3 Champion of the Parish. I'm not sure what to do to fit the burn at the stakes, though.
Oh and Unruly Mob could benefit nicely from Thathcer Revolt as well.
Would banners raised fit into this deck? Just an idea.... Anyone care to check out my deck? Need some help editing it: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=415318
Its a nice deck, I like R/W Human right now. Its playable now but I would make some changes but feel free to ignore as much of it as you want! Personally I'd want a full play set on Champion Of The parish with either 2 or 3 Doomed Travellers. Hanweir Lancer in a good card but it has been completely outclassed in this set by Silverbladed Paladin, still costs 3 but it gives you Double Strike! I'd replace Fervent Cathar with another 2 drop, I love Ash Zealot personally but there a lot out there. In terms of being on a budget if you are ignore this last piece of advice cos it is one of the most expensive cards ins standard right now but cavern of souls is an incredible card in a tribal deck, especially one which is multi-coloured. Anyway this is my R/W Human deck, most of what I suggested to you is already in here but you might find some other ideas in there: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=395111
I wouldn't recommend creatures with 2 coloured mana costs. How are you meant to play champion then ash zealot? Or ash zealot then silverblade? Especially without sacred foundry in standard at the moment. The only way is to draw 2 cavern of souls.
Sorry, the only way to pull off that 3 turn play is to draw 2 caverns. Whereas champion, unruly mob, thatcher revolt is much less mana dependent and still a powerful turn 3 opening.
No its not, draw a Cavern first turn, play Champion. Draw a mountain, play Ash Zealot Draw a plain, play Silverblade. Believe me I know, I've had a bit of practise :P.
Hmm of course, just ignore that then. It's still very dependent though, I wouldn't worry if the deck had more midrange threat but it doesnt, you need to reliably squeeze as much out of each turn, as early as possible and consistently too.
But if its a deck with Lightning Mauler and Gather The Townsfolk in as well then chances are you will have a 2 drop you can play.
This style deck definitely works, but you have to be careful as it can be so fragile with low toughness creatures. Personally, I normally tell people to remove it when I see it, but "Cathar's' Crusade" can work very well here as a finisher. Once you have it in play, thatcher revolt becomes a death blow card. I would drop an increasing devotion and an odric (you only need 3) to put 2 of them in. Also, as said above, unruly mob is a good 2-drop. It's an excellent candidate for soul bonding for first strike and it's easy to cast in dual colour as it only has 1W symbol. Not sure what you'd like to drop for them, probably traitorous blood (or sideboard it) a fervent and a mauler (3 is enough). Also, having malcontents means you can get away without using vigilante justice. The card that will do that (better) and give you some targeting protection is cloudshift. Drop all 3 and switch them for this. Once you have a malcontents in play, a 4 combo of thatcher and cloudshift can have the same effect anyway, but cloudshift is also very useful at other times to evade burn, removal and combat trickery to pull your creatures out of combat once blockers are declared. It also allows you to reassign your soul bond creatures if need be.
this is a cool deck have you looked at my R/W deck? http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=412883
