I would replace two stalwarts for 2 Militia's Pride. it makes a more consistant mid to late game :)

I absolutely love this deck!!!! The flavor and the synergy are sweet! Check out my similar deck :) it's called hells hitmen
Im sorry but it really doesn't look like there is a theme to you deck here :( just a bunch of vampires thrown together. If you choose to keep the deck black and red, personally I would put in 4 Stromkirk Noble and up your captains to 4. Otherwise I would take out all the red completely. And For blood tribute, its only real utility is if you kick it when you have sanguine bond in play for an instant win. And maybe swap your blood seekers for blood artist, it combos off the blade of the bloodchief a little bit better.
I have always loved Demigod of Revenge!!! For a little bit of versatility maybe switch the lava spikes for forked bolt? Even though it does one less damage its instant speed and you can choose multiple targets.Check out my Red/Black unloved deck!http://www.mtgvault.com/millstone/decks/hells-hitmen/
I do agree that 3 eladamri is too much due too the legend rule and the ruling has been changed on the elvish champions so they now arent considered legends, just a 411. and If the elvish promenade works out for you maybe think of adding bramblewood paragon, which would make the tokens extremely deadly or joraga warcaller with all that mana ramping that you have.p.s. as far as ezuri and another legend out. they only kill eachother if you have 2 of the same legend out
The longer you have traumatize, the less effective it becomes. Personally, I would Run 4 Hedron crabs if you are going to use walking atlas and if you want some card draw use visions of beyond. The silence with the memory erosion is a little counter productive, choose one of those ideas and go with it. Hope this helped!

If you want to fully utilize your kemba you need equipments in the deck. and since its a legendary creature to probably cut it down to 2. 4 healer of the pride is a bit much for the mana curve versus utility. Maybe look at Felidar Sovereign for a win condition with it also being a cat :)
My two favorite flavor texts are Last Word from Darksteel, and Raging Goblin. Last Word: "Someday, someone will best me. But it won't be today, and it won't be you." Raging Goblin: He raged at the world, at his family, at his life. But mostly he just raged. I even made a custom playmat that had the artwork of Glimpse the Unthinkable with Raging Goblins Flavor text. So those are my two favs :)
I would say that for this deck serra's ascendant would be a must
I run 2 more fetches (green suns) but then again i also run more visionaries. since your running the birchlore rangers you could throw in progenitus for fun. maybe to test it out, lol
Funny that you mentioned the crossroads, my current meta runs half maverick and the rest a whole bunch of random stuff with only one other combo elves, and they run the lightning greaves instead. i prefer the crossroads only because the turn i play it is the turn that i plan on comboing out or close too. cuz then i can use any of my priests or archdruids and emrakul swings for the win the turn it comes out. so since this is the second time i have heard it i might tweak it a bit. and this was just my current decklist, i plan on gettin a cradle which would replace the lodge. and i have the arbors but they show up as creatures primarily :) thanks for the comment
Thats given the turn 4 scenario, theres a much higher chance for a turn 5. the point is, that when you are running an aggro weenie deck, you try to win as fast as possible. vault of the archangel isnt exactly thinking with the (i need a usable colored mana each turn so i can win as effectively as possibly) mentality
http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=271272 this is my aggro humans deck, it has a pretty decent potential to win turn 5 but sometimes if im lucky, turn 4. Turn one: champion of the parish Turn two: champion of the parish, champion of the parish, swing 3 Turn three: Mirran Crusader, swing 9 Turn four: either honor of the pures or bonds of faith, or o-ring blockers, etc. p.s. this is assuming that they do nothing significant, so DOJ would be VERY SIGNIFICANT. Im just saying its had the potential.
honestly, if you want to stick to the theme, i would take out the elspeths and the kitchen finks, its a good lifegain card but you still have the baneslayers and the survival cache. and of course if you end up going that way you will end up with great trade fodder.
heres what i would think about putting in figure of destiny forked bolt hearthfire hobgoblin boros recruit
Nicely built!!!
Thoughtweft Trio?
It needs some work but i think if you cut alot of this out you can make it work really nice. Here are some suggestions. -4 Knight-Captain of Eos -2 Mesa Enchantress -2 Cloud Crusader -4 Archon of Justice -3 Benalish Veteren -3 Griffin Rider -3 Griffin Sentinel -4 Peregrine Griffin -2 Avacyn Priest -4 Holy Strength -4 Indestructability -2 Marshal's Anthem -1 True Conviction -4 Lifelink -4 Angel's Mercy -2 Due Respect -1 Divine Reckoning -5 Plains -2 Elixir of Immortality -1 Swiftfoot Boots -2 Thalia, Guardian of Thraben (put it in sideboard) That will put your deck down to 60 and once you get other cards for the deck you can replace some of the others that dont quite fit with +2 Gather the townsfolk +2 Serra Ascendant +1 Champion of the Parish +2 Ranger of Eos
This deck really needs more mill to it, dream twist is the perfect match. not only is it one blue at instant speed but it also has flashback that can be used for a second shot. and for a sell mill as the main component where is the laboratory maniac? heres the changes that I would make: -4 Screeching Skaab -2 Ghoultree -2 Wreath of Geists -2 Deranged Assistant -2 Island -2 Forest +2 Memory Erosion +4 Dream twist +2 Thought Scour +2 Laboratory Maniac +4 Evolving Wilds These changes should not only make it faster but would provide a better win condition. I hope this helped!
