An Elf Deck

http://www.mtgvault.com/hancislaw/decks/modern-elves/

There is my vision of an elf deck. For this moment I don't have: 4xJoraga Warcaller, 2x Jagged-Scar Archers and 2x Elvish Promenade.
I'm also wondering about replacing 2xOverrun with Coat of Arms or instead of 4x Joraga Warcaller- 2x Joraga and 2x Coat of Arms.
I find Slate of Ancestry very useful, so even if it is only one card (I have one more, maybe you think it would be good to add it?), I don't want to remove it.
I was thinking about adding 2 more Elvish Viosionary cards, but I don't don't what I should replace or if it makes sense.

Thank you for any advice.

Overrun gives trample, Coat of Arms doesn't. It's something to concider and can be the difference between winning or not. Garruk Wildspeaker might be better then overrun though.

In a competitive format Slate of Ancestry might not be the best way to draw cards as Qasali Pridemage is pretty popular and effective against it and so is blowing up the field with Wrath of God effects (what UW Control does).
Lead the Stampede seems good in your deck though.

Elvish Promenade feels like a win more card. If you have many elves you're winning already so no need to create even more. On the other hand if you have no Elves in play (wrath of God) it's a dead card.
