If I were you I'd add more mana. Nothing makes a game suck quite like being manascrewed.
20 mana for a deck that tops out at 4cmc? That seems fairly reasonable. I bet there's some effect lands that could be good here. OP, what is your budget for this deck? Most of my idea so far have been fairly expensive (aether vial or rishidan port).
Silverblade is in there as a finisher of sorts, and to use mine since i have a playset. I'm thinking of taking out herder for either Basilisk Collar, or hivestone so that sidewinder buffs them all.

No outrider en kor because he just didn't seem that great. I chose sidewinder over the other because more then one sidewinder buffs the other. Herder doesn't.
I thought about riftmarked Paladin, would he be better then zhalfirin crusader?
I like Riftmarked Knight better just because it represents some more power if you suspend it and this deck is kinda low on power/toughness. I like the hivestone idea, and it would let you run a few sinew slivers for a lord effect. Mtenda Herder definitely seems like the odd card out in this deck. While its dangerous for them to block, without either an anthem effect or something like bonesplitter I can't imagine the opponent caring enough to block it.
Telim'Tor must be a super sad man considering no one wants to play him even in a deck based entirely on flanking. Suq'Ata Lancer is pretty sweet though.
Reconnaissance as a 1 or 2 of in this deck seems pretty sweet. Remember that you can use the ability after damage during the combat step to untap your guys for blocking later. Pretty handy to have a bunch of untapped guys with the Archetype out.
Jabari's Banner is cute but I would recommend plenty of other potential equipment cards instead of it. Flanking dissuades blocking as it is, why not add some cheap power to your creatures with some Bonesplitter action? Mask of Memory could be good if you're getting outgassed all the time. Lightning Greaves is a classic.

Those are some great suggestions. Not so sure about Telim'Tor though...

also, why no Outrider en-Kor? Riftmarked Paladin gets you two Flankers for the price of one (and three turns).

The only thing with riftmarked knight is it doesn't seem to do much before it comes out on turn 6.
Should I make this boros colored? that gives me lighning helix and suqata lancer.
Those are some great suggestions. Not so sure about Telim'Tor though...
