HOLY COW IT IS

This is exactly the same as Reid Duke's second place deck at the World Championship, except there's no Daybreak Coronet, Dryad Arbor, Fetchlands or Horizon Canopy.
no white mana
Wren's Run Packmaster. I mean, you already have the elves for Champion-ing, and it makes wolves and gives all the wolves Deathtouch.
Wirewood Lodge makes Elvish Archdruid go huge.
Undead Warchief!
Well, of course, the wedge names are very old (from Apocalypse, 2001). The slang for them today is mostly what has developed over the years. Dega goes by Oros, Ana and Ceta have their initials simply read as 'rug' and 'bug', Necra is closely tied to 'Junk', and Raka is occasionally called "American".I personally would love a wedge set like Shards of Alara.
Nowadays, White-Black-Red is mostly called "Oros", named for Orzhov-Boros and for the legendary Planar Chaos dragon, Oros the Avenger.
Dega is a legit name, it's just really old. Dega means White with Black and Red as backup colors. It comes from Apocalypse, which had Dega Disciple (A white creature with black and red activated abilities), Degavolver (A white creature with black or white kicker), and Dega Sanctuary (A white enchantment which gained you life if you had black and red permanents in play.)
Time of Need?
Should have 4 Hero's Downfall and 3 Dreadbore
No, it doesn't. Wizards changed that back in October when they got rid of Extended Format. Now a sideboard includes up to 15 cards.
When you said "Elf Token Thing" I thought you meant Presence of Gond and Midnight Guard.
I really think Vorel of the Hull Clade works well with Darksteel Reactor. Not only does he not die to lightning bolt, but once you have 5 counters on that Reactor, Vorel makes is a two-turn clock rather than a 15-turn clock
Hero's Downfall is nearly strictly better than Dreadbore, so run 4 of them and 2 Dreadbore. Second, if you look again, you need absolutely no white mana. Take out the Godless Shrines and Sacred Foundries.
Ikiral Outrider has kind of an expensive level up with fewer benefits. He would be good to drop for 2 Thrummingbird.
Reduces them to 1. The only time Training Grounds doesn't help is on Transcendent Master and Student of Warfare
Take out the Evangel, put in Elspeth and Archangel
Vandalblast, maybe Smash to Smithereens
One of the most common strategies when playing Standstill is to play the man lands -- That is to say, Faerie Conclave, Ghitu Encampment, Dread Statuary, or Mutavault, and swinging with those at your frustrated opponent. Even Blinkmoth Nexus works well.
