Deck Description

Virulent Sliver adds poison counters to the mix hehehe.

How to Play

Virulent sliver lets you poison the opponent when slivers hit. That includes with trample from Horned sliver. Other slivers just add more silliness like Toxin Deathtouch and Sliver Token creation. Mana ramp with gemhide and manaweft.

Deck discussion for SlINFECTive

For your land you should think about throwing in a set of ancient ziggurat, perfect for decks like these and the card is cheap iirc. Also i know your not running any blue but with manaweft/gemhide its semi irrelevant but i like shifting sliver to make your mans essentially unblockable unless your playing another sliver deck.

wow that's a first. never seen someone complain about a $2 land. That's pretty damn cheap in the world of playable lands in magic.

As long as you're not giving your slivers infect, a creature like Psionic Sliver could work with this deck. It is however a blue card. (:

Kind of thinking about maining megantic sliver, he makes ur threats ridiculous with infect and u have a fair bit of ramp to get him out

Manaweft Sliver and Gemhide Sliver are just great. May I suggest moving Megantic Sliver up to your mainboard? Slivers getting +3/+3 and poisonous would be quite nice.

Poisonous does not work like infect. Poisonous says if this creatures deals combat damage to a player, that player gets a poison counter.

There are different levels of Poisonous. I am not aware of whether or not it stacks, like if you have more than one Virulent Sliver, but The slivers will do only one poison counter regardless of its power.

Yeah, you're right. forgot about that. Still Megantic Sliver would be nice.

Virulent Slivers abilities do in fact stack :) "502.69b If a creature has multiple instances of poisonous, each triggers separately." taken from http://www.wizards.com/magic/comprules/MagicCompRules090201.txt

I will defend myself and the plane I reside in, GyKx! Volrath's help will do you no good! My power to inflict poison is greater than yours!

If you want to make a way to quickly bypass most defences i sugest Galerider Sliver. It enters fast and gives flying.

Poisonous, no matter how much damage a sliver does, only give 1 poison counter. IE, you swing for 5, hit with 3 between two creatures, and they both have poison 1, the get 2 poison counters.

Screw control. Cavern of Souls would be a nice add. Check out the sliver decks on my page.

To make the deck more consistent add Green Sun Zenith. Pulls your lords, your trample and your poison sliver on demand. Will also help to correct your mana if you are scewed with the Gemhide. Looks like Casual Sliver fun...

Splash in blue and get the Shadow sliver and the flying slivers. Then you're more likely to deal them more damage. and you can also put in the new black lifelink sliver, or the old white lifelink sliver.
You should help me with my sliver deck! oh, read the description of it. http://www.mtgvault.com/blackrazz/decks/you-make-my-sliver-deck/
And help my friend w/ his storm deck http://www.mtgvault.com/xxxeleshnornxxx/decks/a-storm-to-remember/

Make bant slivers with splash red, turn 1: virulent, 2: mana sliver and virulent, 3: shroud and flying sliver and maybe another cheap sliver, 4: swing and win, using splash red for haste sliver/ burn for opposing flyers.
