Main Deck (65 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

this is my first sliver deck so any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated. I just changed my mana around again and replaced my city of ass's with 4 mirrodin's core's because my buddies put up a little bit of a stink about the city of ass. Let me know what you think.

Deck discussion for slivers, advice please V4

I think having so little of all your lands is going to be a bit of a weakness with this deck - remember you have the Gemhides, so once you get them into play you don't need every type of land. Also don't knock the basic buff slivers; Sidewinder, Watcher, Bonesplitter, Might and the like. Having a few of those out is easier and harder to eliminate than Sliver Legion.
Apart from that, very solid. I always did like slivers :)

Thanks a lot for the input, I appreciate it. Once I actually get the deck battle tested against real people then any advice or comments should be helpful to get the deck tweaked up to snuff.

If you have or can easily acquire cards like thran quarry and reflecting pool that with help out a lot. Play a sliver deck myself and use 4x of the following: city of brass, thran quarry, reflecting pool, gemstone mine, and ancient ziggurat. Mana is never a problem and the risk with the gemstone mine and thran quarry are offset by the gemhide and crystalline slivers.

Did you want to bring the deck down to 60 cards? At first glance I would remove the shifting slivers because with toxin and talon slivers you would want opponents to block and with winged you would get past most defenses.

Thanks a lot for the advice it is greatly appreciated. I checked out your mana base and really like it. I'm going to try my deck out with the current mana base I have and see how it works out , I have a feeling I might end up incorporating some of your ideas but i am pretty happy at the moment. I wanted to get my deck to 60 cards, i put in the shifting slivers because one of my buddies who I play with has a really good angel deck so if at all possible I wanted to be able to bypass his defenses.
