For the swarm!

Slivers are the Zerg of Magic the Gathering. The First Sliver is perfect because he allows for a rush of slivers. A basic starting hand would be as many lands as possible. The goal is WUBRG. Once First is out it's just a wave of sliver after sliver. Plenty of sliver combos too. I usually win by just becoming unblockable and swinging for the win with damage.

Many of the rocks were cut out to reduce cascade stops. Even Sol Ring because it's a 1 drop. One secret tech in this deck is the use of 0 CMC suspend spells and rocks. Mox Tantalite , Lotus Bloom , Ancestral Vision , Wheel of Fate , Living End , Summoner's Pact . Cascade can cast them right away. So when I cast a 2 drop sliver, I know I'll hit one of these spells.

I'm working on making the land base better. But the budget has held me back on some of the choices. It's evolving.

One of my oldest decks. It's grown over the years. Feedback is always welcome. Good with the bad.
