[u]Basic idea[/u]The basic idea for this deck came from Felonary's Voodo deck and the use of [[Guilty Conscience]]. (https://www.mtgvault.com/felonary/decks/voodoo-5/). I simply wanted to see if a Stuffy-Doll combo was available in pauper and would be able to be pulled off. [[Take Up the Shield]] really saved the deck, because it means you need one card less in your hand. [u]Tests[/u]I have tested this deck against other pauper decks. The decks I tested against are a mixture of Control and Aggro and the result are recorded in a spreadsheet. If you're interested in details from the spreadsheet, feel free to ask. [u]Conclusions from the tests[/u]The deck did surprisingly well in both defence as well as offence. I only removed 4 [[Viridian Longbow]] in favour of 2 [[Armillary Sphere]] and 2 [[Pilgrim's Eye]] because mana was always an issue when I had Coalhauler in hand. I'm also not entirely sure if [[Lifelink]] is worth the slot. It is supposed to be a backup when I don't draw [[Guilty Conscience]] or [[Take Up the Shield]] but during the testgames I used it only 3 times, once on Coalhauler and 2 times I was put under pressure by a creature I couldn't handle and used it on [[Porcelain Legionnaire]]. I'm open to all suggestions and ideas that may help to improve this deck.
You need some components ready or on the battlefield, to make this work: [[Coalhauler Swine]] enchanted with [[Guilty Conscience]] on the battlefield. [[Take Up the Shield]] in your hand and either one of your opponent's creatures attacking or [[Viridian Longbow]]/ [[Lightning Bolt]] in your hand.When the enchanted [[Coalhauler Swine]] blocks and get's dealt some damage, or is dealt some damage by an instant/ sorcery, cast [[Take Up the Shield]] targeting the Swine. It will suffer the damage, deal this damage to each player, you will get two times the damage as healing through lifelink, [[Guilty Conscience]] will kick in because the swine suffered some damage and all starts from anew until your opponent is defeated.

Very good idea byt you might upgrade your stuff. Like Coalhauler Swine isn´t that good how it seems. It problem is it can´t take more than 4 damage and its dealing damage to you. You have that solving this problem Take Up the shield but you can replace all Coalhauler Swines with Brash Taunter or Stuffy Doll. That means you have now 8 free space to add cards like Boros Reckoner, Ill-Tempered Loner // Howlpack Avenger, Idyllic Tutor, Gideon's Sacrifice, Pariah. But this deck is very good work, I believe it will won much and much fights.

Thank you for your suggestions. The original deck was built for legacy/ vintage legality, but with this deck I wanted to see if a Stuffy Doll deck was doable in pauper. I did look up all the cards, for safety reasons on MTGVault, Scryfall and MTG Gatherer, but sadly none of them is pauper legal. Coalhauler Swine isn't good, because it's expensive as hell (CMC), the only good thing is that it's body means it's Bolt-proof... and it's the only card available in Pauper that has a Stuffy Doll effect.Before Take Up the Shield was released (Just in time I have to say) the deck was even more clunky. Lifelink is a survivor from that time, but without Take Up the Shield it meant I would have to draw and play a Coalhauler Swine + Lifelink or a similar effect + Guilty Conscience + [[Blacksmith's Skill]] or something similar.
