I would recommend taking out the Zealot of the God-Pharaoh. It's too much mana investment to be dealing that tiny amount of damage. You could remove this for a Rekindling Phoenix or Torrential Gearhulk, which ever one you prefer. Also, you could put the cards your really like into a sideboard. I would remove the Final Rewards, and putting two Vraska's Contempts into the sideboard and putFatal Push in the mainboard. I would say three Fatal Pushes is about right. Continuing with the sideboard, Doomfall, Duress and Sweltering Suns are great. I can't recommend a full sideboard, though- it all comes down to what you come up against whenever you play. I'll assume FNM. Tailor the sideboard to the meta at your LGS. Remember, every place is different. Mine is mainly control, so for my red/green deck I use Prowling Serpopard to stop counter spells. Although you do have many zombies in the deck, there are so many better alternatives to Marauding Boneslasher. Going with your maybe board, I would say to add a Sweltering Suns or the Phoenix or Gearhulk which hasn't already been put in. A great card would just be another Ravenous Chupacabra. I hope this has been some used to you and you can improve the deck and tweak it to how you want it to be. Have fun brewing!

Zealot of the God-Pharaoh is a pretty weak wincon; Lightning Bolt is pauper-legal, and with its 3 toughness, as well as its expensive activated ability, you probably won't be able to whittle down your opponent in time. Bitterbow Sharpshooters is a nice archer fatty that can pressure opponents freely since it has vigilance.
Since you're including Viridian Longbow, it might be worth including Thornweald Archer to destroy creatures every turn.
Suggest cutting 2x Tel-Jilad Archers, 1x Hush, 1x Salvage, 1x Avoid Fate, 1x Shatter for 3x Bitterbow & 3x Thornweald or 4x Bitterbow and 2x Thornweald.
