I'm what happens when a bunch of poorly-disguised slivers hiding in a hat and trench coat become radicalized by the Machine Orthodoxy and wish to spread the good word of Phyrexia to all non-compleat.

I enjoy obsessing over and constantly updating my curated decks, blogging about how their archetypes and functions may change as new cards are spoiled from each new set Wizards releases. Additionally, I enjoy using CSS to customize my deck pages adding Easter eggs and memes for added flavor and (mostly my) amusement. Please feel free to make a post on my user page, or any of my deck pages if you wish to talk magic - especially when it pertains to any of my format specialties.

I love the idea. My main problem right now is that my time is chunked out kind of weird. Like, I have half an hour free, then two hours booked, then an hour free, then an hour booked. So it's not that I don't have free time, it's that I don't have big blocks of free time.

Let me know a day and time that works for you and I'll see if I can get it to work. I'm on PST, so nine hours behind Central European time. And if more people get on board, even better.

And would you be open to Cockatrice over Spelltable? I have to admit I'm better set up for Cockatrice right now. Sorry for dumping all these problems, I'm trying to get everything sorted out and help make something happen.

legendofa,

I'd love to get spelltable games in, but it'll need to be sometime next week if that's okay with you. Maybe we can rope in some more folks from Tappedout?

I haven't taken the time to take you up on your EDH deck bracket testing offer for Clear Waters, but with the update from a few days ago, I think it's solidly Bracket 4, just on a lower budget. I was showing the list around a little bit, and that was the consensus: budget Bracket 4. I'd still like to give it some live testing, so if the offer's still open, I'd like to take you up on it when I get a chance.

Hey all,

I never seem to find a moment to just sit down and answer comments, so sorry for the wait. Doombeard1984, I've been noticing a trend at more competitive tables that players are favoring non-basics over just regular islands. I'd contemplate cutting Carpet of Flowers for another interaction piece like Flusterstormfoil or the aforementioned Aura Shards. I'd have to give it some thought on what would be a good replacement. Nature's Claim has to stay in though, as it's interaction without any caveats which is my personal preference, plus that sweet TimeSpiral Remastered old border foil just gets my neurons going.

And Mother Sliver Queen's Blessings upon you as well. May you generate many Slivers.

Hi Daevied. I do believe the deck could be downgraded to a Bracket 3 deck with the simple removal of all but maybe 3 game changers. The identity of the deck lies in the curated list of Slivers - the rest is just to ensure your opponents can't thwart your plans. I highly encourage you to try your hand at your own iteration of the deck, some spells i'd suggest including would be:

That's just a list of spells i'd consider - nothing definitive mind you. If you do follow through with your decklist please send me a link to the page. I always like to see what other Hives are brewing.
