It doesn't seem like anyone has mentioned him yet, but Ajani, Mentor of Heroes is fantastic at putting more walkers into your hand. Plus you can't really go wrong with an extra hundred life if you happen to have enough for his ultimate.

Also, don't know if you had this in there, but Ashnod's Altar + Grave Pact with your commander clears every opponent's board whenever you want...

Thank you for your suggestions!
@redking1027 I see your point on Humility - I'll reconsider.
@Signal Pest Yeah, but I don't want to take that route primarily because it requires way too many pieces to work, that has no synergy with the rest of the deck, secondarily because I allready run a sliver deck with infinite combos named Sliverfinity Overlord
@mbern thanks for pointing that out. Manalith is not even in the deck - I've corrected the error in the description:)
Ashnod's Altar + Grave Pact is a great combo, but I don't think there is enough synergy with any of the card, to include it in the deck.
@ElendVenture: I think Ajani, Mentor of Heroes only virtue is that he generate (almost certain) card advantage. The two other abilities won't do much. I'd rather run Sarkhan Unbroken, but I can't find room for him either (mainly because his ulti is useless).

You know, unless I'm wrong, when you proliferate it doubles ALL counters on target permanant or player. So, if you proliferate with plans walkers out, say with Narset, you get 12 counters on her if you proliferate, and with continuing engine, you litterally quadruple every counter on them.
July 23, 2015 3:08 p.m.
trollslayer, proliferate only puts one more of each counter. So narset will go to 7 from 6.

Doubling Season doubles the counters and tokens for everything that enters the battlefield after it
and if you had Inexorable Tide it would add an extra token, loyalty counter or 1+1 counter again

@MrHighscore Yea, the site used to tell me every single time someone mentioned the card Signal Pest. It was quite amusing to be perfectly honest. The only reason I can see for you running Enchanted Evening is if you are also running something along the lines of Cleansing Meditation or Calming Verse or Primeval Light or Spring Cleaning

@Signal Pest I was thinking of Enchanted Evening in combination with Sterling Grove, Privileged Position and Sphere of Safety :)
Not too powerfull, but worth a thought.

I haven't seen any mention of Jace, Vryn's Prodigy Flip. He helps filter through your deck, and after he flips he either lets you recast your board wipes and tutors or gives you a win condition.

Ajani, Mentor of Heroes is a little lackluster but on a second look his 2nd +1 ability could help you cycle through your deck a lot faster to help you find what you need. And his ulti is funny, basically I feel that you need an Ajani in this deck.
Also look at Ajani Vengeant I feel he is the best Ajani. His +1 is a blue ability, his -2 is Lightning Helix, and his ulti is very cruel and can ruin friendships.

What about Wheel of Sun and Moon? I believe it combos with your jaces ultimate if you have doubling season out, and early game if you lose something you always have a chance of getting it back.

Why use Sliver Queen for your commander? Just curious why her of all the WUBRG creatures. Progenitus is typically the go-to guy for Super Friends.

Thank you all for your comments and feedback.
@ztheart: So far I'm not fond of the flipwalkers. They will never get the Doubling Season ETB bonus and I don't like flipping cards in the sleves (or having doubles).
@ManicMayhem: I think Ajani, Mentor of Heroes only virtue is that he generate (almost certain) card advantage. The two other abilities won't do much. I'd rather run Sarkhan Unbroken, but I can't find room for him either (mainly because his ulti is useless). I don't think that Ajani Vengeant is EDH material, but I do see your point on having an Ajani in the deck. I'll give Ajani Steadfast another thought, even though he has been found too light before.
@Unlife: Wheel of Sun and Moon shuts down my (limited) graveyard reuse, so I'll skip on that for this deck. I like the card though, I just don't think it is good enough to tutor for.
@JaceNordark: I've updated the dec description with my reasoning for choosing Sliver Queen
Cheers

How about Mana Echoes? It is a one card combo with the Queen that will generate infinite mana and infinite 1/1 slivers.

Thank you for your suggestions! :)
I am considering Prismatic Omen over Chromatic Lantern because of it's synergy with other enchantments, but I'm still considering if I can afford the ramp downgrade.
I acknowledge the combo (and I use it in Sliverfinity Overlord) but I can't spare the slot in this deck.

Neat list! In your "primer", you have included Demonic Tutor in the Board Wipe section for some reason.

@suislecalme Thank you! I've corrected the mistake. I guess the primer needs a thorough clenaup when I've consolidated the list.
Cheers

Did you know there is an infinite mana combo here too?
August 29, 2015 8:44 a.m.
MrHighscore says... #24
@Guardians Thank you for the suggestion, but I strongly dislike all flip cards, so I'll pass.
What combo are we talking about (I'm assuming you are not talking about Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth that's mentioned in the primer)?
Cheers

MrHighscore says... #25
I'm considering the following changes, to tip the balance of enchantment synergy
- Chromatic Lantern --> Prismatic Omen
- Sensei's Divining Top -> Mirri's Guile
- Celestial Colonnade --> Exploration
I'm also considering swapping out all man lands for basics and adding Land Tax (not sure what to drop for that, but I'll think of something if I really want it... could even be Exploration).
Thoughts?

The Manalith + Rings of Brighthearth combo you described isn't actually a combo. For infinite colored mana in your colors you'd want Bloom Tender + Freed from the Real , and for infinite colorless mana you'd want Basalt Monolith + Rings of Brighthearth .
