Overlord's Lanterns is a EDH deck commanded by Sliver Overlord. It's not really sliver tribal, at least in the traditional sense. Instead, it is fair EDH control deck borrowing concepts from Modern Lantern Control, Legacy Miracles, and some other good stuff. It features:
- Top deck manipulation via Lantern of Insight and mill effects to deny opponents bombs/combo pieces
- Miracles and Counterbalance alongside deck manipulation for control and value
- Slight stax elements with Winter Orb and Static Orb
The singleton nature of EDH makes a direct port of either Miracles or Lantern Control difficult, at best. By shifting the mindset to a control shell with blended aspects from both, however, the plan becomes more feasible. I've attempted this idea before with Circu, Jeleva, and Mairsil, and while each of those has their own pros and cons, they didn't feel right. Cue Sliver Overlord.
Overlord offers a unique spin. In addition to being a nice 7/7 body and opening up all colors, it can tutor the deck's two other slivers: Screeching Sliver and Telekinetic Sliver. The former is a little millstone and the latter a piece of redundancy for Opposition.
Wincons for the deck are incidental damage/mill from cards already playing other roles. Duskmantle Seer, Deathrite Shaman, Blind Obedience, Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver, and Keranos, God of Storms are all examples of cards that are doing other things while simultaneously acting as inevitability. The Overlord himself is a three-turn clock on an opponent if necessary.
There are a few noteworthy interactions in this list. Trinket Mage can mana fix by fetching up artifact lands. Expedition Map has numerous targets, but Sliver Hive is the card that generates a sliver every turn. There's Land Tax and Scroll Rack that are good alone and great together. And of course, there's Counterbalance and Sensei's Divining Top along with a slew of other cards that manipulate the top card!
