How about a Cruel Control sort of approach? Instead of spellslinging and pinging, focus more on card draw (learning new spells) and control/disruption (the piles of utility spells that let the D&D wizard make everything a little easier) until you finish with some big dramatic effect like Cruel Ultimatum or Magma Opus (high-level spells). Without seeing the sorcerer deck, it seems like it's using a lot of small spells for offensive pressure. This would make it more distinct as spellslinger control vs. spellslinger aggro.
I had a similar idea a while back, going for a cube instead of separate Commander decks. My wizard set was support and control, with Narset Transcendent and Merieke Ri Berit as the centerpieces (not wizards, but they had the right flavor and ability). Is that something you would consider?

Nice List!
I'm building one First Sliver commander too.
Link: Sliver Falls
I would like to suggest using high costed ramp with alternative costs like Road / Ruin, Spring / Mind, Magma Opus, Creative Outburst, Elemental Masterpiece, Beanstalk Giant, Shefet Monitor and Greater Tanuki as ramp that can be dodged by cascade so the cascade won't get interrupted by ramp spells after you already have the mana, becoming more likely to find slivers to have more cascade triggers.
Also, there are some new slivers for commander that might be interesting for your list. Consider Lazotep Sliver, Hatchery Sliver and Sliver Gravemother

Creative Outburst and Magma Opus are also good adds both early and late game.

My opponent controls Thalia, Guardian of Thraben. I resolve Torrential Gearhulk targeting Magma Opus in my graveyard. Do I have to pay 1 mana for Opus because of Thalia or can I ignore the tax because the spell is free?

I have a real loathing for all the "kitchen sink" cards that have been cropping up more and more lately - the type that give you a ton of fiddly little incremental advantages. Strixhaven was especially bad for this. Things like Magma Opus, Culmination of Studies, Multiple Choice, Pestilent Cauldron Flip, Scale the Heights... there's being versatile, then there's being overdesigned and obnoxious.
The same goes for creatures with a number of "might as well" abilities that are likely to never come up in actual gameplay. Questing Beast is perhaps the worst offender, but Moritte of the Frost, Vadrok, Apex of Thunder, Koma, Cosmos Serpent, Graveyard Trespasser Flip, Orvar, the All-Form, any double-sided creature... these things aren't even fun to read.
