Sideboard


SLIVERS BOIIIIThis is my take on Budget-Ish Sliver Tribal. A casual deck is never complete unless it has an infinite combo, so to provide we have Sliver Queen, Gemhide Sliver or Manaweft Sliver, Heart Sliver, and Training Grounds, basically an infinite amount of sliver tokens. To make this even spicier play Coat of Arms to swing at someone for infinity squared or if you have two out, than that number gets even more ridiculous. That combo may look like an insurmountable thing to achieve in a game, but the combo CONSISTENTLY happens before turn 8. Turn one is a land drop, turn 2 gemhide or manaweft, turn 3 can be you emptying out your hand and playing aggressively or a Homing Sliver. Homing sliver is what we are going to use to help tutor our creatures, the sacrifice ability is concerning, but to deal with that you can tutor Pulmonic Sliver to make sure that you don't lose any cards you wouldn't want to. If you're in a hurry you can tutor Sliver Overlord or any of the combo cards. Diabolic Tutor is fantastic. It allows you to look for Training Grounds to tutor that, Coat of Arms to keep decks that focus on large creatures at bay. Sideboard ReasoningNow I know I could have put in other things that could have helped like removal, but I didn't feel it would be right to do so unless I did it in a sliver-esque way. Necrotic Sliver is amazing, look how it says "target permanent", not "nonland permanent" but permanent. The power to trade a creature for land is definitely no laughing matter especially when we have infinite slivers that can allow us to wipe their board clean for the rest of the game, if you're hesitant about sacrificing such high impact creatures than Pulmonic Sliver will be your best friend, fighting against control we have Root Sliver to allow us to get creatures out without fear of counters, Ward Sliver cuts down most mass removal cards, Darkheart Sliver is built to counter burn decks because burst damage from instants and sorceries can't necessarily be countered. Other notes regarding the deckIf the deck wasn't budget, than I would totally be running Cavern of Souls instead of City of Ass and then it would be modern legalThe infinite sliver combo CONSISTENTLY happens before turn 8I tried to stick true to slivers as much as I can, so no stapes such as Path to Exile, i never intended to make tournaments with this deck anyway
