Considering the only non-white creatures you run are the Automaton and the Metamorph (which will probably copy a white creature), I'd recommend switching the Glorious Anthems for Honor of the Pures. You might also want to consider Aether Vial. It would free up some mana so that you could more effectively pump up your Figures and it would help against any deck packing counterspells. Ajani Goldmane is another card to consider. In my experience he can lead to blowouts with his -1 ability when you're playing a weenie deck.

Wow, I forgot Vial was legal. Good call!
I'm in limbo over Honor of the Pure vs Glorious Anthem. You're probably right though.
IMO going tribal in WW you lose way to much. You can't run a stoneforge package, you can't really run any utility guys that make your bad matchups better.
Look up the Death and Taxes deck. I've played against it, and it is really solid. the only problem with this concept is your never going to be faster or bigger than zoo. Zoo is the reason that most other aggro decks will fail in this format.

Hence I picked Kithkin over other WW. It puts down fast guys just as fast as Boros and 12 lord effects allow you to compete with Zoo.

no it doesn't. they have 12 main deck removal spells and all of their guys are bigger, and faster. also if they run punishing fire and groves you almost auto-lose. The only aggro decks that stand a chance against them that I have seen so far is tomathan88's death + taxes deck. You must have mana denial, stoneforge mystic, and flying creatures to stand any chance against zoo.
also when you count your curve in an aggro deck only look at creatures.

WW tribal is going to have a hard time against Zoo. But hey, Kithkins can be awfully fun to play, amirite? I wish my girlfriend would pick up and play a Kithkin deck. After all, she's sort enough to be mistaken for one, lol.

4 Wizened Cenn
3 Knight of the Meadowgrain
4 Adaptive Automaton
2 Ranger of Eos
1 Phyrexian Metamorph
2 Cloudgoat Ranger

Speaking of the curve, it's now adjusted and much prettier.
CMC 1: 14
2: 10
3: 7
4: 5
5: 2
I'll miss the 4th PtE and the 2nd Metamorph, but that's about it. Maybe this deck is aggressive enough to cut one Vial for the last Path.
