legendofa I know my friend's deck uses Sensei's Divining Top, Omniscience, and Enter the Infinite, so I could get one of my combo pieces, or steal one of their combo pieces.

Oh, I just realized it said creature card, I'm blind lol. Being removed right now.

Crash Through would be very good if I am running Narset, Enlightened Exile as my commander, or have Jeskai Ascendancy out.

I'm switching Jace, Architect of Thought and Bribery out.

As for whether unblockable or trample is better, probably unblockable, as here are the current common decks:

My friend: a Merry, Warden of Isengard and Pippin, Warden of Isengard token deck, or Sliver Hivelord slivers deck.

My mom: Kykar, Wind's Fury deck, or a Krenko, Mob Boss krenko deck.

My dad runs a Hazel of the Rootbloom token deck, a Tergrid, God of Fright  ^Flip discard deck. Sometimes a Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix *f-etch* and Thrasios, Triton Hero draw deck.

legendofa sorry I was reading an article.

I just got a job, so I'm willing to spend up to $10 on a single card, up to about $60 dollars of improvements at a time.

I usually play against combo decks. Here's my common opponent decks:

A Tergrid, God of Fright  ^Flip control deck.

A Kykar, Wind's Fury combo deck.

A Rhys the Redeemed token deck, sometimes headed by Ghalta and Mavren tho.

A Hazel of the Rootbloom token deck.

a Sharae of Numbing Depths control/stun deck.

And a very budget Sliver Hivelord sliver deck.

I usually play Baird, Steward of Control, Me, The Mighty, or Valduk, Keeper of Equipment.

GeminiSpartanX There are many ways for Slivers to go infinite in mana, creatures or damage. I will start by listing 3 of the most common ones you will generally see to get you started. The rest I will leave for you to discover through play.

1. Sliver Queen+Mana Echoes: The classic, will generate infinite mana and Sliver tokens, combine with a haste sliver for an infinite attack or use Lavabelly Sliver for infinite target damage and life.

2. Basal Sliver+Sliver Queen+Lavabelly Sliver: Infinite target damage and life gain.

3. Intruder Alarm+The First Sliver: Not truly an infinite combo on it's own but can be with the right setup or hit's off cascade triggers. Intruder Alarm combos with a ham sandwich so not hard to make infinite with mana/haste slivers and Hibernation Sliver and Darkheart Sliver.

Bonus: The most important cards to consider for combos. Sliver Queen, Basal Sliver, Lavabelly Sliver, Hibernation Sliver, The First Sliver, Gemhide Sliver, Manaweft Sliver, Heart Sliver, Cloudshredder Sliver, Firewake Sliver, Darkheart Sliver, Cautery Sliver, Sliver Overlord, Homing Sliver, Mana Echoes, Intruder Alarm, Faces of the Past.

Support Cards: The most important cards to protect your combos. Crystalline Sliver, Root Sliver, Sliver Hivelord, Quick Sliver, Ward Sliver, Force of Will, Patriarch's Bidding.

Also if you are on the Tappedout Discord, I am over there as well with the same name. If you ever wanna just chat or talk about other MTG stuff. I have been on and off of this game since I started playing in the Time Spiral Block in 2006. I just recently got into the game again at the insistence of my wife. She said I needed something to do outside the house and needed to learn to be an individual again. She has even looked at buying me cards for my birthday this year. I don't know what she got, but if I had to guess, it is something to help my first deck which is everyone's hated creature "Slivers". I haven't published my deck yet because I am still working on making that one the way I like it. It does have Sliver Hivelord as the commander.

Thank you for your recommendations, I could have sworn I already put Sliver Hivelord in there.

Looks like a pretty solid sliver list. You might consider adding Sliver Hivelord as a way to protect your slivers from board wipes, which are their biggest weakness. I know it's difficult to find space for non-slivers but you could also include Patriarch's Bidding and Kindred Dominance as a way to rebuild or a one sided board wipe. I also really like Heirloom Blade in tribal decks that commit this hard to the board.

Greetings fellow denizen of the Hive,

Well its not very often you seen Sliver Hivelord as a commander, usually its just one of the 99. Good stuff.

So before I look further into it, can ask what is the overall gameplan, is it good wide? Go tall?

Also, an idea of budget might be useful purely so I can give good card selections. +1 from a fellow servant of the Sliver Queen... Long may she rule.
