I just ran a sample hand with this deck. On T5, I could pay 5 mana to make a single 1/1. On T6, I could ramp from 6 to 9 mana. On T7, I could finally play a single creature. This deck has some serious mana issues and some of the card choices such as Deploy to the Front, Nomads' Assembly, Launch the Fleet, and Harvest Season synergize very poorly with small numbers of large creatures.

I didn't even see Aetherflux Reservoir in there. That makes more sense.
Hmm, this is the top Yidris build for multiplayer commander? What are the wincons, just Lab Maniac?
Aura Shards - Absolutely wrecks artifacts and enchantments.Lifecrafter's Bestiary - Great card advantage with a lot of creatures.Craterhoof Behemoth - Typically wins you the game if you cast with enough creatures on board.
There are some really good auras that you could consider playing: Flickering Ward, Hyena Umbra, Unquestioned Authority, Spirit Mantle, Darksteel Mutation
>god of being a dickXenagos is one of the more fair decks around. Stonehoof Chieftain is a neat card I hadn't considered for my Xenagos deck. I try to make sure all my fatties either have trample or flying so I don't have to worry about casting a second creature for that effect. It's real easy to get blown out by removal or board wipes when all your creatures are huge.
I think you meant to say "Sage of Hours makes this deck fun". :)
Prophet of Kruphix is banned by the standard Commander rules.
>I don't like Altered Ego, Mystic Snake, Silklash Spider, Aetherspouts, Skullwinder, and Counterspell.I like Counterspell, but I agree on all the others!
Verdurous Gearhulk and Tireless Tracker fit in perfectly here.
Is the goal just sliver aggro or are you looking to abuse Sliver Overlord's ability?
You have a surprisingly low amount of ramp given the high mana curve.
Since you seem to be going for mono-green and heavy ramp, how about Wild Beastmaster, Gyre Sage, Champion of Lambholt, and Devoted Druid.
Probably Ring of Thune, Moonsilver Spear, and Assault Suit.Reasoning:Ring of Thune - Vigilance isn't really enough to be worth a single equipment. Getting a single +1/+1 counter a turn is also very slow if you're commander is easily removed (which it is in this case).Moonsilver Spear - 8 mana is a lot for something that only gives first strike. If you equip this to a small creature, the creature can't even really attack since it'll be too small. The 4/4 angel is nice, but Sword of Vengeance seems so much stronger.Assault Suit - At 4 mana to cast and 3 to equip, you can do so much more. +2/+2 and haste really isn't enough for that cost. I don't even think the 'can't be sacrificed' clause is very relevant since you'll typically have a decent number of creatures to nullify most sacrifice effects.
Swiftfoot Boots, Sword of Vengeance, and Skullclamp are decent budget equipments you could look at.
Hmm, if I saw someone playing this, I'd probably whip out my own control decks, Keranos or Tasigur, which run 35 and 38 instants respectively. If Jin-Gitaxias never resolves, then no harm done right? :)Looks pretty nasty though if someone cannot deal with it.
Disallow is basically a better Voidslime.
Looks like you have 2x Stingscourger in the deck.
Some of the land choices seem questionable. The Urza lands, Opal Palace, Forbidding Watchtower, Boros Garrison, Orzhov Basilica, and Nomad Outpost all seem like budget cards in a non-budget deck.
Having both Ponder and Preordain never hurts. I would remove Serum Visions for Preordain.
