Shefet Monitor
Creature — Lizard
Cycling (, Discard this card: Draw a card.)
When you cycle Shefet Monitor, you may search your library for a basic land card or a Desert card, put it onto the battlefield, then shuffle your library.

THE FIRST SLIVER EVOLUTION 【Primer&VorthosThings!】
8 months ago
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

Max_Hammer on Legality Question About Zirda

I'm working on this EDH deck where you've got Zacama, Primal Calamity as your commander and Zirda, the Dawnwaker as your companion for some spammy nonsense.
I figured, well, Illusionist's Bracers should work great in here, giving me double value on Zacama, or whatever else I happen to want.
Well, it's showing up as red/not legal for some reason. Tapped Out does yell at you when something isn't legal for your companion, but the bracers are equipment, and therefore have an activated ability.
I checked and they're not banned from EDH nor is there any weird errata I wasn't aware of, so I'm pretty sure this is just a glitch with Tapped Out.
Same thing was happening with Shefet Monitor before I took it out, even though cycling is an activated ability legal for Zirda. Plus, I have other cycling cards and other equipment in the deck.

Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile is the only way yet to play WUBRG Lurrus of the Dream-Den. This should definitely be noted.
There are propably like 10 deserts that work with Hazezon. This isn't great, but it can be done. Shefet Monitor, Crop Rotation and Tempt with Discovery really need to be in there, as well as multiple ways to recover those deserts.
Words of Whatever is definitely fun with Shanna. I have no current ideas here.

Thanks ClockworkSwordfish!
I thought about using the Krosan Tusker over Shefet Monitor but I like that Monitor can grab deserts as well as basic lands and that's really handy to grab the Hashep Oasis so I can buff my Yidaro when it comes in. However I am still in the testing stages of this deck so I could swap them out and see which one I like better, and I like your idea of swapping out Beneath the Sands for Krosan Tusker so I will give that a test too.
Somehow I didn't actually see Drannith Healer when I was putting this deck together but you're right, that is a way better card for early-game survivability so I think I'll put Drannith Stinger in the side board and put that in its place.
I did also think about putting in more ETB creatures to combo with the Astral Drift but I would have to remove some cards with cycling to fit them in and I don't wanna lose the cycling synergy the deck has, otherwise I would.
Thanks for all the suggestions, I really appreciate them! :D
ClockworkSwordfish on What are some ways to …

Three mana to bring a guy back is a little hefty, but if you're really looking for options you can run guys with Cycling (or Landcycling) to redirect your card advantage into something else. Deadshot Minotaur is a soft piece of removal and is easy to cycle at one hybrid mana. Undead Gladiator improves your card filtering by letting you trade other cards for him while you're at it. (Anger, anyone?) Igneous Pouncer and Valley Rannet let you grab shocklands or other nonbasics like Dryad Arbor or Witch's Cottage. Some critters tack an extra ability onto their being cycled, such as Jund Sojourners, Sanctuary Smasher and Void Beckoner - giving you a mana-intensive but reliable option each turn if you have nothing else to bring back.
Perhaps the best example is Krosan Tusker, who grabs you another card and a land when you cycle him, putting you up another card each time. Shefet Monitor requires even more mana but puts the land right into play untapped, giving you a reliable way to ramp and draw cards during a standstill.

Filigree Familiar is great in Muldrotha. Cast it from the graveyard as either an artifact or creature that benefits you on entry and death. Sinister Concoction is decent cheap removal. I like creatures like Caustic Caterpillar, Thrashing Brontodon for their utility uses and unless they get exiled you can continue to cast and sac as needed. Cycle Shefet Monitor early game for a land and card draw and then cast him from GY later. Desecrated Tomb is fun with Muldrotha. Might as well play Mirage Mirror too.
