You've got a solid base for what you've got. Ideally you want to cut it down to 60 cards (don't ask me why, it's just what everyone says). -You seem a bit land heavy. Maybe cut down to 19 of the basics and run some of the m12 dual lands. They're cheap and give you more flexibility if you draw them. -You've got some infect and some normal creatures. You probably want to stick with one or the other, because if they get rid of all your infect guys you'll have to then restart killing them from 20 life. -Grab some more Ponders. Maybe add in a few Oblivion rings.

I wasn't really making for standard but now that you mention it, you're quite right! The xenograft is less for the already existing illusions and more for the Lords. It'll give them hex proof as well and the extra fun of the LotU being able to give himself the +1 / +1 bonus.
I'd probably drop the Scythe Tigers, I hate sacrificing my own land. Maybe get some of the cards that cause an opponent to destroy an artifact and gain life ? That'll pump up your Kavu Predator and get rid of any potential nasty gear / creatures. Maybe drop the umbra's and put in Ezuri Archers (I think they're called, from SoM, 1 / 2 reach elf creature that gets +3/+0 when attacking something with flying, 1 green cost.) to help keep flyers at bay.
I like it! Shares a lot in common with my U/W control deck. Are you trying to keep it Standard, because my deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=201604 , isn't but it's fun as hell to bring out Elesh Norn + Godhead of Awe.
I really, really like this deck. It seems pretty fun to play with or against. Unfortunately like Lepellier mentioned, you need to pay his cost to use him. Found on Gatherer: "Casting Panglacial Wurm while searching your library follows all the normal rules for casting a creature spell, except for timing (casting the Wurm this way always occurs during the resolution of another spell or ability) and what zone the Wurm is being cast from. The spell goes on the stack. You have to pay the Wurm's mana cost and any applicable additional costs, which means you can activate mana abilities while you're casting the Wurm while you're searching your library."
Yea. I tried it out with my buddy today, he ran a green ramp Eldrazi. I definitely need another Venser, didn't draw him once out of 5 games. I'm debating on dropping the two Negates or some of the Spell Pierce, all too often I had a hand full of counter none creatures and nothing to use them on. What would you suggest I drop for more land ?
Put in a Copperhorn. Any other suggestions ? Trying to keep it T2 if possible.
Thrun is there because I pulled him from a pack lol, same with the Gaea's and Hyrda.
Awesome deck! I love how well elves play off each other, they're my favorite creature group. Maybe put in a few Echoing Courages? To give your elves some extra hitting power. I just posted my standard elf deck, but I'll probably be turning it to this once some of the cards get rotated out. If you get a chance, check it out and let me know what you think : http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=196240
This is close to the deck my buddy runs. The only differences between your deck and his are a few Ornithopters and Batterskulls. It's awesome to watch and horrible to go up against! lol
