Deck Description

I'm still working on a sideboard I have no clue what to put in it, obviously i need a replacment for doom blade if i'm up against a mono/heavy black deck. I don't know how i feel about the into the wilds the few games they've come out i've maybe only hit one or 2 lands in my upkeep then again i'm not the luckiest of players so i'll keep them around for a while and see how it plays out.

Do you have trouble getting the mana you need?

Cool. I was going to say if you are that Cavern of Souls or Chromatic Lantern might be helpful here.

i like cavern of souls but with it rotating out in a few months and me not going to many fnm's it doesn't seem worth the investment of obtaining 4 of them. i like that lantern first time seeing it was yesterday during an edh game i might play around with it and maybe remove into the wilds for it

There you go. Yeah, sucks the cavern is rotating out, but the Manaweft Sliver and Chromatic Latern would probably be more than enough.

Good work putting together this deck with only M14 cards. It's a decently strong build too. I just have a concern with a few things. This deck is missing piercing power. You have huge creatures but nothing to actually guarantee damage to the opponent other than thorncaster sliver. A bunch of 2/2's can completely shut down your attacks. I would suggest grabbing galerider to add flying for 1 blue mana and groundshaker sliver for trample. Groundshaker is a little expensive cmc-wise but with manaweft sliver in play you can potentially get it out on turn 4. This will significantly help in terms of getting damage through. Also I would suggest adding in blur sliver for haste so that you can attack right away. Seismic stomp might be a good addition too if you add the galerider. Lay of the land might also help with fixing your land situation if you don't have what you need. Path of bravery could significantly help your life gaining, as well as boosting your creatures a little bit. If you want to add a planeswalker, you could consider Garruk, Caller of beasts. The ultimate ability is really good for getting the sliver you need to win the game and the +1 ability will keep your hand full of slivers to cast. Imposing Sovereign could also help you against creature decks especially with blur sliver in play. These are all M14 cards. Obviously playing with just that set is a little limiting, but I think these cards mentioned give you a few more options when dealing with different types of decks. Just my thoughts :)

I was thinking of adding Galerider but I didn't really want to go 5 colors and with it probably being the only blue card in the deck if i do add it the chances of dropping it on turn 1 are slim. Groundshaker was a pretty hard cut and now the more I play the more I want him in here lol. I think i might cut red and black all together, toss out the into the wilds and add those Path of Bravery and by going to two colors it opens up to be a more reliable deck. I'd love to toss the new Garruk in but I've made this deck with cards that I've opened and Garruk has been the only Plansewalker to eluded me

Lol that's unfortunate about Garruk. Hopefully you find yourself one. It would be a great addition. Also, I would suggest keeping the other colours. I quite like 5 colour sliver decks because it adds so much in terms of flexibility. Even 3 colours is better than 2. However if you do decide to go G/W, I would suggest a couple of other things.

Windstorm - get rid of the opponents' pesky fliers that you can't defend against
Add a couple extra Door of Destinies
Get rid of Manaweft Sliver - you won't need the extra coloured mana
Maybe add Primeval Bounty - I know it's for beasts but it's still a creature multiplier and can help you gain life and grow your creatures
Maybe Giant Growth
Maybe Savage Summoning - cast an uncounterable creature with an additional +1/+1 counter
Maybe add Ring of Three Wishes to find the cards you need to win
Maybe Sliver Construct - weak and fairly expensive cmc-wise, but it's still a sliver that benefits from your other ones
Ajani, Caller of the Pride - will help grow your creatures and temporarily gives flying and double strike
Celestial Flare - to attempt to get rid of a creature that's screwing with you
Congregate - for more life gain
Fortify - for attacking or defending
I would still put in Imposing Sovereign

On a sidenote, if you do decide to add all this gain life ability, you may want to add Archangel of Thune - not a sliver but helps all of your creatures grow. Needless to say this deck would definitely need the Groundshaker Slivers if you go through with this lol.

As I said, I would expand on the colours to include at least 3. I can give you some other suggestions if you'd like when you decide what direction you want to go with this. Also, if you want to include cards from other sets I can give you some other suggestions as well. I love slivers myself; always have. I have one of my own as well but it's really old so it wouldn't apply to you lol. It's posted on this website if you want to take a look.

Wow, what a very cohesive lineup of creatures. What do you do to avoid being rushed while building your wall of "Fuck you I have slivers"?

OK mostly Green/ White I feel where your coming from. I'm not so sure about Into the Wilds. Considering you have 23 land and the 4 Manawefts, do you really think mana will be an issue? One card that I find can be quite useful for getting your creatures through is Glaring Spotlight. Other than that, I feel like you should take some suggestions from Undead Cow. I especially like the idea of Garruk, Caller of beasts. I can't believe I didn't think of that! XD

where is the mana sliver? if you run collective blessing and door of destinies you need him
run 4x sentinel sliver,
steelform sliver is mediocre at best

I feel as if groundshaker sliver is too expensive for such a mediocre return. You could probably add some card draw or creature production in the form of any of the currently standard Garruks. Just to giver yourself a mid to late game if you get board wiped or something.
