hey i building into my first sliver deck (sliver of the foo) and wanted to know if
A) i shouldn't run a enchantment protection
B) what do you guys think
C) suggestions?
So if my creatures are indestructable they can't be board wiped?

Depends on the boardwipe in question. Supreme Verdict , your creatures are fine. Black Sun's Zenith , they're gone.

could you recommend any other standards indestructable cards?

Boros Charm can also make your creatures indestructible, plus it has a few more very relevant options.

How competitive do you want the deck to be? Friday Night Magic-competitive or kitchen table?
No matter what, your deck should have a clear focus, how it looks right now makes both sides (Sliver aggro and protection through Sphere of Safety ) weaker than individually.
The Sliver part can be upgraded by adding one more Predatory Sliver and possibly Galerider Sliver . Galerider is blue, but is a phenomenal onedrop for the sliver deck. It also helps get the slivers through for damage. Mutavault is great in Sliver decks, since it's all creature types and thus gets boosts from all your slivers.I'd say the mana base for great sliver decks needs to be really flexible. You have great slivers available to you in Thorncaster Sliver and Galerider Sliver , if you want to splash for it.
I'd probably also cut Groundshaker Sliver , since it's too costly for the effect. Gideon, Champion of Justice isn't really that amazing and is downright boring in an aggro deck. The Collective Blessing are also a bit slow but gives a tremendous bonus.
Maybe what you need is a few Hive Stirrings and some rootborn defences. One of the biggest issues with Sliver decks is mass removal which KILLS the deck. Their tempo comes from the inherent synergy and if that fails, the deck does too.
