first off the reason i don't have invigorate is because my play group goes by the MTGO ban list for paper pauper. with that said I'm wondering what you all think about this deck, I'm open to suggestions
Not sure on your budget but a playset of Might of Old Krosa would be nice here. Some protection wouldn't hurt your little infectors either. I would run Apostle's Blessing.

Might of Old Krosa is Uncommon, so it's not Pauper legal. I agree with Apostle's Blessing though! It can even make your creatures unblockable when you really need to push through some damage for the win!
Looks a bit creature heavy to me. And I'm a big fan of Llanowar Augur. The trample plus getting the bonus without paying for it that turn lets you push a lot of damage through on turn 3.
T1 -> Augur
T2 -> Glistener Elf and another Augur, Ichorclaw, etc
T3 -> Crack the Augur(s), and have 3 mana for some big pumps. Groundswell and a Titanic Growth sends 12 trample damage at your opponent.
Also, I'm a bigger fan of splashing red over black. Better burn for creature removal, and you get Assault Strobe.
There's no reason to not run Invigorate in something like this. 3 life doesn't mean jack because you're running Infect, and it's a +4/+4 buff without having you use any mana. Drop Titanic Growth and fit that in. You should definitely fit in another Blight Mamba simply because it's your only other 2 drop option in mono green besides the Myr (doesn't really matter what you remove; it can be a buff spell or it can be one copy of the spider). Plague Stinger is so ridiculously better it's not funny, but if your focus is mono green there's only so much you have to work with for Infect.

I just assumed it was a common. My bad.
