LITERAL SLIVER SWARM COMMANDER DECK.

This "Sliver Swarm" commander deck is literally built to swarm the battlefield and go wide with Slivers. Sliver Overlord is usually a common pick over the classic, but expensive Sliver Queen *oversized* because having a tutor with legs that can smack opponents and creatures is good.

As mentioned, the deck focuses on creature swarm, while also functioning as a sort of toolbox using Sliver Overlord. The goal is to flood the board with slivers and strike fast or heavy with a swarm beatdown. If that does not seem to work, the swarm can go for either control-midrange or combo out to infinite Sliver tokens.

PROTECTION

Going wide with the swarm comes with a great risk of getting board wiped, which is a common thing in commander. Hence, these spells helps defend the swarm just in case Sliver Hivelord or Crystalline Sliver is not out yet.

Boros Charmfoil, Heroic Intervention, and Flawless Maneuver

Clever Concealment - because sometimes, indestructible, hexproof or shroud may not be enough

RECURSION

Sadly, board wipes can get through, which is a harsh reality. Luckily, we can bring back the swarm and swing again using Patriarch's Bidding, Eerie Ultimatum, or encore them back using Sliver Gravemother.

NOTABLE COMBOS

While the deck was built to be aggro in nature, playing control-midrange or a long game is also a possibility. Notably, the deck is good 1 vs 1, but can also adapt as necessary during multiplayer games (although it can't be helped that the table may go after you just because you are playing slivers). The following are the deck's notable combos:

Lavabelly Sliver + Patriarch's Bidding or Eerie Ultimatum or encore triggers - the ETB trigger will greatly damage, if not kill opponents right away, provided if your graveyard is full after a board wipe. Just pray that your opponents does not have graveyard hate.

Sliver Queen *oversized* + Basal Sliver + Lavabelly Sliver - go infinite damage lifegain if Lavabelly is in play, or attack with infinite Sliver tokens to kill the entire table.


That's it for now. I will continue to experiment with any other possibilities, such as Telekinetic Sliver + Sentinel Sliver which allows me to attack, and then during opponent's upkeep, tap all their lands to slow them down.
