Hello, I had some spare time and thought I might try to improve this. The link to it is https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/pauper-lands-improvement/?cb=1542244270 otherwise I want to compliment you on the idea and on Radiant Fountain against agro and Bojuka Bog against graveyard decks. Ancient Spring is not a good fit because of mana colors, Khalni Garden you don't need the token. Peat Bog, Sandstone Needle and Saprazzan Skerry give mana colors you don't need or are just a land that does not fit. Anyway, nice variation on zombie hunt in pauper!

I don't play much Pauper, but Saprazzan Skerry or Ancient Spring could be useful for some bonus mana.

Hi PopcornBunni, I like your deck idea. I think you should add Irrigation Ditch, Geothermal Crevice, Sulfur Vent, Ancient Spring, and Tinder Farm to your land base, and Bloodbraid Elf. When you play with that, this can happen:

Turn 1:Irrigation Ditch

Turn 2:Sulfur Vent

Turn 3:Sacrifice both your lands to play a Bloodbraid Elf, cascade to an Ardent Plea, cascade to a Restore Balance, and your opponent has to sac pretty much everything. Then attack with your Bloodbraid Elf which triggers Ardent Plea, giving her a 1/1 counter.

The board only has your Bloodbraid Elf now. Repeat this process and ping with the elf.
This strategy has won me a few matches, and I hope it will for you too.
