The sliver deck you did sliver hivelord I still have and just changed a little but here and there. I now run a different commander and less field wipes but it basically has the skeleton design. I say skeleton because when I build decks, I like to start of on a list and then transform the decks to how I would like to play. But my friends love the deck, sure the hate slivers but because isn't not top tier expensive deck they like it. So I wanna say thank you for showing us fun and easy deck list that many play groups enjoy. :)

Cascade seems like a fairly budget friendly type of deck given that a lot of budget is just playing cards that aren't as efficient mana wise, dropping a six mana sliver doesn't seem that good until that sliver cascades.

@AidanWR 4 жыл бұрын

Mmm, I have a guy in my play group that plays First Sliver, and I know how powerful it can be, but this deck is a little underwhelming because there are a lot of 2 and 3 CMC slivers, so you would most likely only get 1 or 2 triggers per cast, even with the higher CMC slivers. I know that most slivers are 2/3 CMC, but there are high cost slivers that do the same as the cheaper costed slivers that would still work just for the cascade triggers

I intentionally don't run any 1 mana spells in my first sliver deck except virulent sliver so basically guarantee I get it early in the game. If I cast any two mana sliver or cascade into one, then I know I'm getting virulent and that way I can typically take at least one player that turn or the next. Unfortunately since it's not true infect, the clock isn't as fast as I'd like, but it still works. Another fun little-known card that I run is Ancestral Knowledge which lets me stack the next ten cards in my library so I can make sure I can cascade through a few creatures and not jump from a 5 CMC to a 2 CMC and miss the 3-4 drops or cascade into a non-sliver.

Syphon sliver and Boros charm are also really good, I'm just not sure what I'd take out for them however. For a deck that wants lots of lands, Edge of autumn is pretty bad. if you draw it after turn 4, its dead card, you can't cast it. I suggest kodama's reach instead. it does cost one more to cast, but isn't conditional. I love this deck, I've wanted a sliver commander for a long time and I was thinking about the new Silver overlord they are reprinting in those lair boxes, not sure if I'm gonna get one, but this is just fine.

I think Morophon should be somewhere in here, likely as a reasonable upgrade. It combos stupidly well with Hibernation Sliver and The First Sliver. Not to mention, it's not only an anthem effect, not only basically ramp, but also just about all the color "fixing" you'd ever need.

@TraeKryzer Жыл бұрын

@@Goldenracer2 This is a comment from three years ago, when Morophon could be gotten for $5 to $10. Just check the price history. Even still, I would totally stand by this comment if we're talking about adding a $20 to a $50 deck. I would consider a reasonable upgrade something that's less than half the original price of the deck. Especially if you want to splurge for some insane synergy. (As many free cascades every turn as you like for only 2 life each. Aka, play your entire deck as soon as you play this card.) Sure, your $20 in upgrades down the line are probably better spent on multiple cards, but I thought this would be a fun mention. I'm really not sure where you're getting double the price of the deck.
