My first EDH deck, I've been working on it for almost 3 years. Awesome toolbox feel with a lot of combos. The main pieces to most of them are Sliver Overlord, Sliver Queen and Mana Echoes/Intruder Alarm. With these in play, you can generate a lot of mana (using Gemhide/Manaweft and Heart/Firewake slivers), and abuse the abilities of all of your slivers (in short, you win). With Sliver Queen, Heart/Firewake Sliver, Manaweft/Gemhide Sliver, and Basal Sliver (super broken, turns a sliver into a pseudo black lotus), the Slivers can endlessly multiply on their own as well.

Non-Sliver Creatures:

Birds of Paradise- The deck is heavy green, and this offers ramp and perfect fixing.

Deathrite Shaman- Same deal as BoP, plus it acts as GY hate, which is something that the deck was missing.

Bloom Tender- Fixing and heavy ramp. With Overlord out, it taps for WUBRG, enough to tutor and cast a number of important slivers (Heart, Manaweft/Gemhide, Crystalline, Hibernation, Quick, etc.).

Seedborn Muse- Originally this slot went to Prophet of Kruphix, but after the ban, Seedborn Muse was clearly the next best option. Paired with Quick Sliver, it works better than PoK did, as Seedborn Muse also untaps your artifacts.

Sun Titan- This is the best recursion spell for the deck, it's even better than Patriarch's Bidding. I have chosen to run Sun Titan instead because I can more reliably tutor for Sun Titan, and unlike Patriach's Bidding, Sun Titan is not a dead card if no one wipes the board. Patriarch's Bidding is a card that is good when you are losing. Sun Titan is good when you are losing, when you are ahead, and pretty much whenever you have 6 mana. It gets back a number of combo creatures, as well as value/combo enchantments, and can get back lands if needed. It can also win a game on its own if not answered.

Lands:

Fetches, Duals and Shocks- Perfect fixing, must have for the deck. Ideally, I will be running 10 Fetches, 10 OG Duals, and 7 Shocks (Temple Garden, Breeding Pool, Overgrown Tomb, Stomping Ground, Hallowed Fountain, Sacred Foundry, Watery Grave)

5C Lands - Perfect Fixing. In the case of Sliver Hive and Cavern of Souls, there is also added utility value.

Gaea's Cradle- Ramps like nothing else, and this deck is heavily creature-based already, makes sense. Taps for my most important color and can make tutoring with Sliver Overlord seem much cheaper.

Crystal Quarry- My only "colorless" land. In Magical Christmas Land, it can cast Sliver Overlord on T2 (Land, CQ, Sol Ring, Mana Crypt).

Volrath's Stonghold (To Be Cut)- Excellent recursion land. I find I've never used it.

Yavimaya Hollow (To Be Cut)- Excellent regen land, althought Crypt/Sedge Sliver covers this.

Ancient Ziggurat (Cut)- Excellent fixing piece, but I don't like the "only creatures" restriction. I've had to tutor, or play a combo-enchantment, and haven't had the appropriate mana, or even ENOUGH mana, because of this card before.
