Deck Description

This has become one of my most dominant decks. It's an old (Vintage) Sliver Deck that has recently been updated to take advantage of some newer cards. I just doesn't lose.

I would like to make some changes: More Sedge Slivers (as the badlands counts as a swamp), etc. But in time....

How to Play

This deck is about building an army of slivers and waiting for one of 3 end game functions:
1) Coat of Arms. If I can get 4-5 slivers out and drop the Coat, I commonly have 10/10 flyers that have lifelink. or
2) Aluren/Recycle Combo. Aluren allows you play 3 or less casting cost creatures for free. Recycle allows you to draw a card when you play one. If I get both of these up (and I'll use Demonic Tutor to chase) I can frequently get 10-15 slivers up (in the 6/6-8/8 range with flying) or
3) The Queen loop. This one is hard but Heartstone allows me to make 1/1 slivers for 1 mana. Add manaweft and I can use slivers to make more slivers. Add Blur and I can create 100 million slivers in one turn.

The 5 color problem is solved by a combination of City of Brass/Undiscovered Paradise/Gemstone Mine (all limited 5 color cards), a few dual lands (I just happen to have some from the old days) and Chromatic Lantern/Rampant Growth and the Manawefts.

No deck is perfect as we know, but this one has some legs.
