---

Mostly standard (budget) sliver aggro, using Sliver Queen in place of Sliver Overlord because it functions as a sinkhole I can dump any leftover mana into with immediate effect, and as a result, even though it is less reliable than Overlord, it allows for greater board presence once the other slivers have hit the field.

Homing Sliver, Gemhide Sliver, and Manaweft Sliver are the primary targets for tutor effects. Afterwards Dormant Sliver, Hibernation Sliver and the various slivers that grant keyword abilities are good choices. Avoid pulling slivers with power and toughness buffs until it is time to attack or defend, especially Megantic Sliver, as they will affect what you can tutor with Wild Pair. Basal Sliver is the real MVP in a Queen deck, allowing to infinitely spawn and sacrifice tokens. Alongside the Queen, Gemhide Sliver, and Blur Sliver, it grants you infinite mana in any combination of colors. If the field isn't set up to go infinite it still has uses; it allows you to use sliver tokens as psuedo mana storage (albeit black mana) to fuel other activated abilities, and you can sacrifice any tapped tokens to recreate untapped versions for defending. There is a small degree of protection and resurrection, but the defensive strategy is to use Hibernation Sliver, Crypt Sliver, and Crystalline Sliver to prevent your important creatures from being targeted or board wiped in the first place.
