Ever since I started playing Magic, I have loved Slivers. They were one of the first theme decks I received as a kid, and since then, I've always had one Sliver deck or another. Now, with EDH, these guys tend to shine more than ever.

This deck is fairly versatile, provided you get moving early. Tutoring with Sliver Overlord is absolutely key to winning games. Play him, then search for whatever you need to keep yourself going or to deal with cards as you see fit. If and when your combos fall apart, you always have the option to begin a sliver-oriented beatdown!

Most of my games usually go something like this:

1) Play your hand out to turn 5, then drop our commander, the Sliver Overlord.

2) If you don't already have a mana-producing sliver out, tutor for Gemhide Sliver or Manaweft Sliver. If you do, search for something to protect yourself, like Ward Sliver, Sliver Hivelord, and Crystalline Sliver. Play them and pillow up as necessary. If you can lay down some beats at this point, feel free!

3) Once you're embedded and feeling pretty snug and protected, start searching for ways to combo out. I'll include the options here below. All of them work off of Sliver Queen, so make sure to keep her alive and well.

THE COMBOS:

With Training Grounds or Heartstone in play:

Mana Echoes + Purphoros, God of the Forge + Sliver Queen OR Impact Tremors + Mana Echoes + Sliver Queen = Infinite dudes dealing infinite damage.

Goblin Bombardment + Mana Echoes + Sliver Queen = Infinite sac outlet dealing infinite damage.

With Ashnod's Altar in play:

Blood Artist + Sliver Queen = Sac for two colorless, make a dude, deal one damage and gain a life; Sac for two colorless, make a dude, deal one damage and gain a life; ect, ect, ect. This combo also works with Zulaport Cutthroat.

ANY of the above with Intruder Alarm + Manaweft Sliver/Gemhide Sliver + Heart Sliver/Blur Sliver.

Also, although not an infinite combo, Telekinetic Sliver + Winter Orb can be VERY annoying for your opponents. Combined with some of the others mentioned above, you can shut down the entire game.

As with my other decks, the lands need some work. I'm working with what I've got for the time, until I can replace them with more efficient ones.
