Hey Venum,

I think the whole new slivers incoming!? was for sure 90% of the hype behind Thrumming Hivepool. Despite that I went and acquired a copy anyway- because Slivers. But upon closer inspection I won't even slot it into this deck, it just lacks that "oomph" (see my whole rant about the card on my deck update). The closest thing to the card I wanted Thrumming Hivepool to be was Chronicle of Victory. Slivers overall need more - more concrete lore that firmly establishes their point of origin and their connection to Phyrexia (due to Volrath getting his grubby humanoid hands on the Sliver Queen *oversized*, forcing her to be his minion). Also, we need more Slivers who can provide interesting and varied options for play - e.g.

• a Legendary Sliver that says all slivers gain each opponent mills a card equal to this creature's power
• a Legendary Sliver that can end the turn for a cost and gives all Slivers myriad

Something fresh, but also powerful. What new takes on Slivers would you like to see? (really this is for anyone, not just you Venum)

I run Trouble in Pairs in my vampire deck The Nobility Are Athirst and it can be hit or miss. Not a home run by any means, but not so terrible i'd cut it. Honestly, it's the closest thing to a Rhystic StudyGC monowhite is ever going to get, so by all means i'll run it there - but since this deck has access to blue, why bother running it? Study and Mystic Remora are all I need for my tax n' draw requirements.

Fist of Suns + Morophon, the Boundless + Yawgmoth's Will seems neat but you'll need another piece of the engine that keeps the cards flowing. Getting access to your graveyard is only good when it's full of powerful spells - because anything you cast that turn will go to exile. I can't say it's a combo worth having unless you can reliably keep a full grip. What was your intention with the combo?

I have a question for you (or really, anyone reading this) - do you think Slivers will make an appearance in the future Reality Fracture set? OR will they show up in Star Trek? Or both?
