I would forget about  {Sylvan Primordial} and add  {Craterhoof Behemoth}...;)

Edit: I have tried to play standard elves but it is not competitive enough... With all the wipes and removal...:(

Is there anyway to beat board whips in {G} {U}? Like maybe sideboard  {Creeping Renaissance}

That's exactly the problem with eøves in standard... No chance to resist wipes... Removals u can prevent by simic charm... But wipes green survivea bcs of undying or regeneration and unfortunately in BG elves u have not much options maybe to splash black for  {Golgari Charm}...:D

The splash black makes  {Deathrite Shaman} more versatile in the deck as well. Just an idea though.

Instead of  {Sylvan Primordial} im going to play  {Soul of the Harvest} and  {Thragtusk} just doesnt feel good in this deck i tested him and him not being a elf was kinda a bad feeling

 {Predator Ooze} makes board wipes a tricky thing.

With  {Soul of the Harvest} i can sometimes go near infinite because i just use lands to cast dudes then after i tapped out my  {Elvish Archdruid} can tap for like 12 more
