And They Shall Know No Fear

Instant

Choose a creature type. Creatures you control of the chosen type get +1/+0 and gain indestructible until end of turn.

Sorin, Solemn Visitor and Reconnaissance are 2 really good cards here. Recon allows you to attack with EVERYONE safely, deal combat damage in most situations, and have every one of those creatures untapped by the end of combat. Sorin's +1 is until your next turn and WILL catch off guard when they forget (and combined with Recon is kinda gross).

Also consider And They Shall Know No Fear over rootborn defenses. It's much easier to hold up 2 mana in an aggro deck than holding up 3 for defensive purposes.

In case you aren't familiar with Recon, creatures are considered "attacking" until the end of combat step ends. You can untap after damage has been dealt for pseudo vigilance or even untap after first strike but before regular damage to make combat entirely one sided. It's especially gross with Stromkirk Captain or Stensia Masquerade.

Feel free to check out my list for ideas and the deck description for a better explanation for Recon. Upvotes on any of my decks are appreciated. Edgar's Dega Vampires

Thank you for the feedback! I am planning on adding Teferi's Protection as soon as I can. I realize you can play Flawless Maneuver for free if Edgar is out on the board. However, could And They Shall Know No Fear work in that role as well?

I wanted to grow my board by way of Invasion of New Capenna but I may just swap that for Purphoros now that the cost has dropped since I last built Edgar.

I completely forgot about Plumb! I'll pick that up today along with Boros Charm.

Brood Sliver can be pretty spectacular in an aggro-sliver deck in that it helps to explode your army size quickly. Leeching Sliver is also wonderful; your sliver attacks won't even have to hit in order for you to deal damage.

One of the main concerns a sliver deck faces, is getting wiped. Stuff like Heroic Intervention, And They Shall Know No Fear, Teferi's Protection or Rootborn Defenses can all help to reduce the risk of falling prey to that. And when you still do, spells like Thrilling Encore or Patriarch's Bidding can help a great deal to recover quickly.

Have fun with the build.

would something like And They Shall Know No Fear or Ajani's Presence be beneficial in this deck? I'm thinking especially for the purpose of keeping Polyraptor on the battlefield as long as possible?

If your budget allows, consider those swaps:

If you're willing to streamline your creatures to be all Samurai, these are some good picks:

Also, Mythos of Snapdax and Cleansing Nova stumble on your many artifacts. Consider those swaps:

Hi, and thank you for posting! And They Shall Know No Fear seems interesting, but it doesn't beat Flawless Maneuver. With my commander on the field while being tapped out (pun intended) it's the ultimate bait to waste a removal spell. Despite that, I feel the deck has a pretty robust interaction suite where I feel like there isn't much need for more protection. But i'll definitely keep that card in mind for other decks though, thanks for suggesting it. Profet93, good suggestion regarding Heroic Intervention. I remember when that card was less than $5! I should have stocked up with a playset. But like I said, I think i'm good on protection and interaction - but if there's a need for change or to make room i'll definitely find a way to slot it in.

Tyvar's flavor being about beatdown while his passive and +1 leading themselves to tap abilities is kinda off

Kinda annoyed if Nissa dies, if only because Vivian and mono-green Garuk are mechanically indistinguishable.

Rhuk: For Mirrodin!-tribal I guess.

Not a fan of the mechanical eyestalks that Serum Sovereign and Jace (and Ajani in one version) have, looks too sci-fi

Hoping against hope that Ertai, the Corrupted gets a non-Secret Lair reprint, he's neat.

IDK if they could have skipped creating Mites and just kept going with Germs

Staff of the Storyteller: I've been down on recent white draw enginge attempts, but this is pretty good if you got a deck where the token is relevant so you're not just paying 2+1 mana to draw your first car

Mesmerizing Dose: Kinda misleading art?

Vanish into Eternity: I hope they're not killing of too many cool planes.

Capricious Hellraiser: Not bad EDH mono-red Dragon tribal if you include some rummaging.

Me as usual complaining that things aren't more pushed: Kinzu seems overall worse than Hofri Ghostforge, even if her tokens are basically 4/1s in EDH. I hope there's some cool "corrupted" cards for her to take advantage of.

Annoyed by Mite Overseer because AFAIK white still doesn't have straightforward weenie makers that are as efficient as green's Jade Mage & Ant Queen

Kinda find Atraxa disapointing, her ETB would have been neat as just a stand-alone sorcery

I wish Staff of Compleation cost 1 less life on all of its tap abilities, not as easily abuseable as Staff of Domination anyway.

Roar of Resistance's triggered ability could just cost to make politicking smoother

Clever Concealment: Booo, when are we getting a straightforward Heroic Intervention color shift? (Don't talk to me about Grand Crescendo or And They Shall Know No Fear, they are not the same.)

Otharri: Yeah this is much more appropritate for the color combination than Kalemne, Disciple of Iroas, but unlike the rest of the original experience commanders there's still not a lot of ways to get multiple counters quickly

Necrogen Rotpriest: with e.g. Goliath Hatchery in mind, I don't see why this couldn't just give out Toxic 1 as an anthem.

Resistance Reuinted: Kinda sad that you can basically counter the anti-board wipe part by removing the targeted creature.

Hi Mortlocke!

I was wondering if you've considered And They Shall Know No Fear a as possible inclusion in the deck? It could be a decent protection against board-wipe if the meta start to get a bit too heavy on that front while doubling as a possible surprise cover for a free attack turn while The First Sliver is of the board.
