Deck discussion for Sliver

Main suggestion: Get the City of Brasses out and replace them with Ancient Ziggurats. Also, you should probably get rid of some of the AEther Vials and/or your Force of Wills for 4 Gemhides, which are a staple of any Sliver deck. I would also recommend giving up more of your counter spells for Necrotic or Acidic Slivers.

I don't see anything else right off of the bat, except that you should probably replace the metallic slivers with some other low-cost ones that have effects.

Hi Crowns, Nice slivers. Its pretty similar to what i'm running but I had a lower budget and couldn't do the duals and forces.
Unless you play vintage or casual you may want to take out wheel of fortune because its banned in legacy.
I disagree with a lot of what slash has said particularly about cutting back on aether vials which are the engine of the deck. I do feel like metallic sliver is unnecessary and could be better as brainstorm or swords to plowshare.

Don't underestimate Hibernation Sliver. He is a 2 mana cost so he can be vialed out easily and despite the life loss being able to protect your slivers from any kind of removal is very powerful.
Disenchant is always a great card but how about Harmonic Sliver instead?

Here is my build if you are interested.

Good luck with the deck!

Hey slash P! I know all about the formats. My fault that I have not written it, but in my play group, we only play vintage without P9 :)
FOW is one of the most powerful cards in every format and when I got em, ill use cus i can. Wont change the Vial ether and that's why I only play 2 Ancient Ziggurat. I love blue and will always say that counter is better then removals.. thanks for the comment tho...:)

Hey Mursh! It was from u I had my inspy.. think u got one of the best sliver deck ive seen on this site. Thumbs up boi!

Maybe u right about Hibernation.. haven't think that true. Its blue as well and work together with FoW to.
WoF its a powerful one and way better then Windfall...shame its red-- he he

Harmonic Sliver is bad cus you have to destroy target artifact or enchantment and not "may" which can destroy ya own if the opponent got none,,,

Thought I had looked all slivers true...but maybe Synapse Sliver could be a choice?... ill drink one it ;) make the changes next year!
Happy new year guys and let the force be with ya!

Thanks! and Happy New Year to you.

Yeah I understand the concern with Harmonic Sliver and thats why I have him sideboarded. Honestly I haven't had much trouble with him because of Darkheart Sliver and Hibernation Sliver. Also he eats affinity alive.
Synapse Sliver would be amazing if it wasn't for its cost, he could be a good card for the late game and in your case can be discarded with FoW. If you try it out let me know how it plays.
