This a multiplayer deck. The lack of land destruction is on purpose, I don't want to be that guy. Plus I want to be able to cast a wrath and then recast Selenia the same turn. A real man's magic turn needs at least 12 lands.
Let me know what you think and I'll try to answer any questions.

Debtor's Knell is a glaring omission in any BW deck.

Hm that seems like a very slow and expensive reanimation spell. I'll try it out but I assume its going to die or get me killed very quickly.

It looks like you're trying to go for some kind of Voltron win. If so, Nightmare Lash with Expedition Map to actively search out Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth is a must. Maybe even Darksteel Plate, Lightning Greaves, Shield of Kaldra, and Whispersilk Cloak should be included.

I haev a first turn Llanowar Elf. He casts Ancestral, a slightly stronger card from the same set.

That sounds like a really good idea! I think I'll cut pox and maybe a plains to make those changes.
I already have lightning graves and think any more equipment would be hard to fit in.
Thanks for the input.
Edit - And yes, the idea is to win with Selenia. Academy Rector Beats (ARB) just don't seem to get me there!

Here are some cards I liked in my BW decks that you don't list. I would consider looking at less spells and more permanents, they tend to be more useful in EDH games. I left our LD cards and Contamination type effects as you said you didn't want them (For example Desolation Angel or Death Cloud)
Creatures:
Divinity of Pride
Twilight Shepherd
Angel of Despair
Deathbringer Liege
Graveborn Muse
Duplicant
Archon of Justice
Karmic Guide
Stonehewer Giant
Avatar of Woe
Akroma, Angel of Wrath
Lands to consider:
Cabal Coffers
Volrath's Stronghold
Mistveil Plains
Temple of the False God
Artifacts:
Orzhov Signet
Darksteel Ingot
Akroma's Memorial
Gauntlet of Power
Other Spells:
Martial Coup
Beacon of Unrest
Faith's Fetters
Liliana Vess
Sorin Markov
Elspeth, Knight Errant
