How To Fight Sliver Decks?

Slivers come out super fast and with cards like Door of Destinies and Megantic Sliver , they can get pretty big. How should I stop them using a Jund midrange deck? would adding more spot removal help?
Slivers depends entirely on synergy and critical mass. As long as you pack enough interaction it's pretty easy to pick apart. Save your removal for the important P/T pumping ones, and they are left with a bunch of unimpressive 1/1s and such.
One thing to keep in mind is that the static abilities they grant can also be played against them. An Anger of the Gods might not seem like it kills a bunch of 4/4 slivers, but as long as that Predatory Sliver dies they all get shrunk and die because damage doesn't go away until the end of the turn. Or an attack might seem profitable with Bonescythe Sliver , but killing it after they declare attacks lets you line up a bunch of nice blocks.
