Hi!
This is a neat idea, have you considered adding Winding Way? It might be a good way to dig for more lands or your creatures. Something else to consider might also be flicker effects such as Ghostly Flicker which could allow you to flicker your creature etbs and allow you to add multiple additional lands to the field (it would also work if you decided to add the Coiling Oracle in your maybe board). Maybe add in Archaeomancer while you're at it if that's a style you might want to play.
Again it's a very neat idea, good luck brewing!

#1Hi!
Truthfully I've never played a lands deck, but in general when deckbuilding and cutting cards I would start with those that would be the most difficult to cast or have limited upside. How easy do you find it to cast Deprive? If you feel getting to double by turn 2 is inconsistent that might be a place to start. Also it seems like you're playing at sorcery speed anyway when ramping. Do you feel like holding up countermagic is typically better than just playing Explore? If so you may want to go with the Growth Spiral in your maybeboard over Explore because that allows you to hold up interaction on your opponent's turn and still ramp if they don't cast anything worthwhile.
If you find yourself not able to take full advantage of your creature etbs, that could mean either take away some etbs or add more ways to get lands into your hand depending on which way you want to go with it.
If for example you removed 4 Deprive and one Crop Rotation, you now have 5 extra slots to put lands into your hand, so you could add additional Winding Way or possibly Mulch.
Alternatively there are creatures like Floriferous Vinewall or Gatecreeper Vine if you would prefer to have an earlier presence rather than focusing on card quantity. Although admittedly these creatures are only there to block 1 power creatures.
The deck looks fun though!
