I'm not very good with Slivers; but this is how I'd make that deck:

[4] Magma Sliver
[2] Hunter Sliver
[4] Winged Sliver
[4] Muscle Sliver
[4] Crystalline Sliver
[4] Victual Sliver
[4] Mnemonic Sliver
[4] Metallic Sliver

[4] Aluren
[4] Recycle
[4] Wayfarer's Bauble

[4] City of Brass
[2] Treva's Ruins
[2] Rith's Grove
[5] Forest
[3] Mountain
[3] Island
[3] Swamp

The mana-base needs altering...along with a lot of stuff... but it's still a not-bad off-the-top-of-the-head fix. I'm sure others will give you better ones, though.

Thanks for the fix Polidoom, I'm not too sure about the Aluren though, sure it'll give my slivers some speed but itll also allow the opponent to whip off their creatures as fast as I can.

Yeah but if your opponent isn'tplaying cards with 3 or lower casting-cost, then you will have the advantage. But even is he/she is, then you'll have Recycle to continually fuel your hand.

hmm, my friend runs a similar deck to this, isn't very competative though, he uses crystal quarry, you might want to try that

Now that I take a closer look, your idea isnt all that shabby Polidoom. Perhaps I could use couple Acidics somewhere in there instead of Hunter or somethin.

It's not as shabby as yours. =/

Slivers are, in general, a bad idea. They're an unreliable creature type, and dependant on too many colors to try to function. Plus, there really aren't many great Slivers.

Not to mention how badly popular cards like Mutilate kill you.

The two most successful sliver decks i've ever seen are a) the standard infinite combo sliver deck (sliver queen + ashnod's alter + heartstone), and my friends creature kill sliver deck
4x toxin sliver
4x talon sliver
4x hunter sliver

(firststrike+provoke+instant kill = pissed off opponent)

thats the main combo, it was 3 color and he had dead even mana ratio with 4 spells from each color, and 4 backup slivers for each color, the rest of the deck is:

4x heartsliver
4x plated sliver
4x crypt sliver

spells

4x lightning bolt
4x disenchant
4x diabolic tutor

4x chromatic sphere

land

7x plains
7x swamp
7x mountain

this deck was ruthless, looking back though, he could have used some better spells. this deck was VERY consistant
