Since you're staying within two colors, I'd recommend moving the ratchet bombs to the side board and playing elvish mystic main board. It will get you to {frenzied tilling} on turn three, possibly.

When I use Anger of the Gods all my creatures that produces mana will die, therefore they will be a waste of too many creatures.
If I play against control decks with a low amount of creatures Anger of the Gods will do nothing and Ratchet Bombs will be more effective.
Maybe put aside Angers and include Elves?

I too have a land destroyer deck; however, it is slightly different than yours.

2x  {Swamp}
3x  {Forest}
3x  {Mountain}
4x  {Temple of Abandon}
2x  {Temple of Silence}
------------
14 Land

2x  {Ember Swallower}
4x  {Predatory Sliver}
2x  {Striking Sliver}
4x  {Manaweft Sliver}
2x  {Opaline Unicorn}
4x  {Blur Sliver}
--------------
18 Creatures

4x  {Survey the Wreckage}
4x {Bramblecrush}
2x {Traveler's Amulet}
2x {Undercity Plague}
4x  {Verdant Haven}
4x  {Frenzied Tilling}
4x  {Destroy the Evidence}
4x  {Demolish}
---------------
28x Spells

It has much to do with getting a lot of mana without land. I don't actually have all the cards for the deck, but on the try play function, I am able to get enough lands without mulliganning 3/4 of the time. Give suggestions please!

No love for {Contaminated Ground} aka the best land destruction card ever!! Even if they play Black CG deals 2 to them every time they tap it!! I know that you aren't playing Jundstruction but consider it :P

Thank you all for your comments!
I had tested the deck and it went quite well, but I feel like something is missing...
Maybe I will try a Tri-colored version with black but that will require an excesive amount of dual (pay 2 life) lands.
I'll keep testing, thanks again.
