Turtle Tribal help (Pauper)

Deck Help forum

I'm quite new to mtg, I've been playing a few months so I'm not really a veteran.

Anyway, some weeks ago I created a turtle tribal pauper (Budget Turtle Tribal (9$)), just for fun, so it's not really meant to be competitive but if it was, it would be great for sure.

So, the deck contains 20 turtles, 16 blue and 4 black. Thanks to the new Thriving Turtle you could possibly curve out. The "finisher" is Silburlind Snapper equipped with Aqueous Form or targeted by Artful Dodge. So the deck relies on 4 cards, and you also need some noncreature spells, and if your opponent removes/counters what you need you'll have to wait until you find another one.

Most of the time the other 16 turtles are just sitting there doing nothing. The only good thing they can do is remove some threats with Aspect of Gorgon/Coat with Venom but I wonder if I could use them for something else, other than just block some damages.

Obviously, considering this deck is a tribal (especially a turtle one) and a pauper, doesn't help. I would like to know if you have any suggestion to make it a bit more competitive while possibly keeping the turtles and maintaining a low budget.
