I'm liking it. I ended up ditching the Firemind Vessel in my version for Scroll Rack If you combine that with Reliquary Tower you can fish out an infinite combo card. I also put Omniscience with Enter the Infinite and Thassa's Oracle for an alternative win-con.

Firstly 31 lands with an average cmc of 3.62 is way too low. Run 34 or 35 lands. Switch out Firemind Vessel , its way too slow. Add Commander's Sphere or Mind Stone instead. Quicker to get out and give an added bonus of getting you a card if need be.

Hey, good version of Overlord on a budget.

Unclaimed Territory is another budget Rainbow land with Slivers, it could replace Rupture Spire . The Battle lands would be budget upgrades since there's 18 basic lands to activate a Battle land.

• Cinder Glade --> Rugged Highlands
• Smoldering Marsh --> Bloodfell Caves
• Prairie Stream --> Wind-Scarred Crag
• Sunken Hollow --> Gateway Plaza

By adding the Battle lands then Farseek is two drop land ramp spell that can search for a dual land and it could replace Circuitous Route . Playing Tri lands with Bounce lands can be problematic when having to bounce a Tri land. Consider playing only the Tri lands and cutting the Bounce lands? Some budget Pain lands could replace the Bounce lands.

• Caves of Koilos --> Orzhov Basilica
• Shivan Reef --> Izzet Boilerworks
• Battlefield Forge --> Boros Garrison

These potential land upgrades can speed up game play since increasing the amount of lands that can ETB untapped and cutting ones that always ETB tapped. Crop Rotation is a budget land tutor that get any land and put it onto the battlefield and it's helpful when playing lots of basic lands. Faeburrow Elder is powerful in five color decks with so many possibilities from Slivers of having different colored permanents. Elder could replace Firemind Vessel .

Some other budget upgrades to consider:

• Necrotic Sliver ($0.25) --> Mortify
• Winged Sliver --> Shadow Sliver
• Dormant Sliver ($0.25) or Beast Whisperer --> First Sliver's Chosen
• Realmwalker --> Telekinetic Sliver
• Pact of the Serpent --> Prophetic Prism
• Preordain --> Ponder
• Victimize --> Return from Extinction

Shadow Sliver can be a problem not being able to block with Slivers. Dormant Sliver is repeatable draw, but Slivers can't attack until you remove it. Beast Whisperer can be a alternative to Dormant if not being able to attack is something you don't want to worry about. Preordain with scry 2 before draw is better than Ponder and it's less than $1.

Good luck with your deck.

Hey, sure, consider cutting cards that are single effects such as sorceries for cards that have repeatable effects? It's not just Priest that's good with repeatable token sources also Korvold, Pitiless Plunderer / Ruthless Knave , Butcher of Malakir , etc. therefore expanding on tokens helps all these cards.

Some cards to consider cutting:

• Price of Betrayal
• Pillage
• Angrath's Rampage
• Clinging Mists
• Severed Strands
• Reclaim
• Pulse of Murasa
• Haunted Cloak

Some cards that are okay, but could be upgraded with budget options:

• Winding Way
• Relentless Pursuit
• Firemind Vessel
• Scaretiller
• Return to Nature
• Arboreal Grazer
• Gatecreeper Vine
• Llanowar Scout
• Torch Fiend
• Gilded Goose

Some budget land changes to consider:

• Command Tower --> Gruul Guildgate
• Exotic Orchard --> Bloodfell Caves
• Llanowar Wastes --> Foul Orchard
• Cinder Glade --> Rugged Highlands
• Smoldering Marsh --> Akoum Refuge
• Savage Lands --> Fertile Thicket
• Path of Ancestry --> Dormant Volcano

Okay so, this comment is kinda unreadable, and I'mma clean this up a bit, order cards together, give my personal thoughts and then repost it, but here's the dump version also so I can work off it myself

Dragon Tempest, Lightning Greaves, Caged Sun, Thran Dynamo, Aura of Silence, Austere Command, Archangel of Thune, Aurelia, the Warleader, Doom Whisperer, Rakdos, Lord of Riots, Sword of the Animist, Dragon's Hoard, Price of Fame, Ob Nixilis, Unshackled, Angel of Serenity, Kaalia of the Vast, Magus of the Moat, Herald of War, Primevals' Glorious Rebirth, Hazoret's Monument, Firemind Vessel, Worn Powerstone, Thundermaw Hellkite, Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury, Lathliss, the Dragon Queen, Karmic Guide, Sower of Discord, Angel of Condemnation, Blade of Selves, Gilded Lotus, Bolas's Citadel, Tainted Remedy, True Conviction, Deafening Silence, Grasp of Fate, Everflowing Chalice, Grafdigger's Cage

Something you could also be doing is go for more of a reanimator style deck, running stuff like Faithless Looting, and Cathartic Reunion.

So as far as ramp cards I can give you, I have:

Mind Stone - Worn Powerstone - Dowsing Dagger  ^Flip - Prismatic Lens - Darksteel Ingot - Arcane Signet - Boros Signet - Heraldic Banner - Hedron Archive - Talisman of Conviction - Coldsteel Heart - Dreamstone Hedron - Burnished Hart - Commander's Sphere

---

Cards I don't have that you may want to consider:

Sword of the Animist - Wayfarer's Bauble - Gilded Lotus - Nyx Lotus - Thran Dynamo - Fire Diamond - Marble Diamond - Solemn Simulacrum (can be thrown with Brion!) - Star Compass - Sisay's Ring - Ur-Golem's Eye - Firemind Vessel - Cloud Key - Empowered Autogenerator - Lavabrink Floodgates - Guardian Idol

I really like Gilded Lotus and Thran Dynamo a lot. This really is a deck where you want to get to 8+ mana.

I would recommend at least ten pieces of ramp, perhaps even twelve. Definitely no fewer than ten in my opinion. Perhaps six that add 1 mana and four than add 2+ mana? Something like that. Getting Brion out a turn early, while not vital, can be convenient as he can pad your life total.

I would recommend 36-38 lands.
