though i see that your trying to stay t2 standard, but as far as the competition goes something like this would deff work better.
how about something like this, only spent 10 minutes on it but should give you a couple ideas. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=92171
its just my playstyle i dont like relying on chance and most of the time dark ritual is there in decks for just that chance, which for the most part is fine until the dark ritual itself is replacing lands and then i normally dont stand for it.
on a side note i dont actually own the noble, using birds of paradise instead.
heres mine, did pretty good though i didnt take it to fnm http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=90220
lookin better, id really try to get it down to 20 land though, and like the other guy said brave the elements probally isnt the best call give it a little more time and you should have the best one drop deck possible
you cant make much better of a 1 drop deck than this, however you have a vital flaw, because everything costs 1 mana you really only need to be running 18-20 land just run dual lands and jungle shrine and you will be fine.
got a problem with creature decks and your running control? how about you overrun them with thier largest creature, or just make a single copy of it to help you stay in control, rite of replication.
two suggestions, loxodon punisher, armament master. and as far as the deck goes in general, you have currently made a mix of a top tier soldier deck and a top tier equipment deck, you should pick one and then build around that.
here is the only dual lands that counts as a mountain as well as its dual-counterpart (e.x. forest mountain) stomping ground blood crypt steam vents temple foundry if you compare these to your current dual lands youll see a difference and why your dual lands dont count as mountains. just as any creature can have multiple creature types(e.x. elf warrior) a land can simply be a land as well as being multiple types of lands, but most for balance reasons are not.
and as far as the emeria goes, yes you can get one creature back for each emeria, i just really really hate dead-drawing them when i dont have the plains
that ajanis pridemate would be quite risky id put him in for squadron hawk a lot easier than the lone missionary and it would work
i cant agree with condemn, but i dont know what cards you have so i cant really say much, just try to find some other form of control card or maybe some large creature, or basilisk collar i know you have that one.
tl;dr basically make it into the deck i linked, l o l.
quite, quite mistaken here my friend, they have more than one use. here you draw one card, and have basically drawn two and that leaves more non-land cards left in the deck for you to pick up and use, tl;dr less land more bam normally i dont do this cuss i dont run enough lifegain, but thats obviously covered here.
just to clarify that last bit, sun titan to 3, walletslayer to 3
this is actually pretty solid only a few things that i can actually help you improve on, first off you can drop your emeria sky ruin to 3, 3 is going to almost guarentee you that you will have one before you meet its requirement, and reduces the chances of you making a dead-draw (well not a completely dead draw seeing as how you would still be drawing a land, but it comes into play tapped and does nothing) then id repeat the same thing for almost the same reasons with sun titan and baneslayer angel assuming you have one or the cash.
heres a slightly similar deck you may see a few ideas in. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=89661
needs a bit of work before it can be considered top tier, but it shouldnt do terrible as far as cheap advice i can give you, take out trusty machete, add another honor of the pure, take out one firewalker and one of your two spells, add three brave the elements in. and drop 2 plains for 2 emeria sky ruin and you will find your deck just became far more effective.
