No it isn't Tier 1 or anything, but I've exclusively played this deck for years in the Modern Format to great results. It is surprisingly powerful, always underestimated, and extremely fun to play, if not just for seeing your opponents reaction when you declare Slivers on your Cavern of Souls.

I've always wanted to show people how the deck works, and for the last year or so I've entertained the idea of making an in-depth video on the decklist itself. Finally, I've come around to finishing all the editing.

This is my current iteration of Modern Slivers, a decklist that has gone through many major changes since I first stumbled across these creatures. The deck has its issues, but ever since Unclaimed Territory and Assassin's Trophy saw print I've gone into each match up with more confidence. In the video I explain my reasoning for each individual pick, as well as what else you may want to consider.

Update #2 — May 27, 2019

Went 1-1 at a local modern night (showed up late to the first round, unfortunately).

Game 1 was against Tron, and it went exactly as I expected it to, being Slivers' worst matchup imo. Even though I managed to kill a Tron land with Necrotic before they hit all three, they still hit Tron a turn or two later, meaning I wasn't able to keep up. Round two was going great until Emrakul, The Promised End was played against me, and I miiight have left a Darkheart Sliver up before they took my turn for me...

Game 2 was against Burn, and while I mistakenly kept a 1 land mulligan at 6 to lose game 1, game 2 and 3 went fine once I was able to build a board state. I managed to hit Darkheart on both of the second games, giving me just enough time to come back around.

No changes to the mainboard as of now, however the last Assassin's Trophy has been removed from the side and replaced with Warping Wail.
