5 Sliver uncommons I believe is what we are expecting. Thats at least what was gleamed from the article saying we get some slivers in M15
I just hope 1 is playable...

I still harbor hopes of getting slivers with infect, hexproof, and indestructible.
Oh, and while we're at it, a 7/7 legend that taps for killing an opponent.
Darksteel Sliver is the dream!

Here is our white uncommon. Essentially, it turns your slivers into Banishing Light. While its cost is high, its not strictly the worse. Issue is that in 5 colors, we have ways to remove stuff. Its a pass, but I could see a more controlly version playing it.
Also, because im a derp, there is also supposed to be a rare/mythic new sliver as well.
Agreed, the art is nothing short of fantabulous. Looks like a hydralisk-ravener-lictor-trygon from hell.
lol one of the best things I've read on here in a long time. I'm happy that my nerd cred is high enough to where I get what all of those things are lol

Already updated both decklists to make room for it.
Reading the thread in Rumor Mill people don't seem to understand why they only made this a 5/5. If it was a 7/7 for 5, control decks would wreck with it in Modern. A 5/5 that can be destroyed for 5 mana is already ahead of the curve. lol

I think you meant "can't?" Anyways, yes this card is fantastic as is, especially in the word of singleton magic.

5 color control is a thing in Modern? Well not that it concerns me I am just curious. I can understand the nerf for it being a 5/5 rather than a 7/7 since it is Indestructible. But aside from that... OH MAN DO I LOVE THIS GUY! Definitely will blow mad money to get him foiled.7

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.

It's possible with something like a 7/7 indestructible. You may only run cards to get this guy out. Not necessarily cards in all 5 colors.
Apparently testing showed that a 7/7 indestructible was too strong and made it a finisher for non-sliver decks.

After the initial shock, my two cents... for Modern, it may be nice. I mean, I can envision someone concocting an aggro deck that abuses this fellow. But sliver aggro builds, in my humble experience, don't fare well on a multiplayer environment. On 1v1 it may be a different story, with fewer targets to deal with and a lower life total to chip away at.
Would the effects of multiple copies of this sliver stack?

Did some asking around. For this sliver's ability to stack, the wording should say something like: "Slivers you control have 'when this creature attacks, defending player loses 1 life.'"

The way I read it if you attack with 50 slivers, they still only lose 1 life.
Is that wrong?

I *think* that if you were to attack with 50 slivers then the defender would lose 50 life.
My doubt was whether controlling two copies of this terror would cause the defender to lose 2 life for each attacking sliver instead of 1.
You are probably right about the multiple life, but wording has me thinking you could read into it differently. I don't think cloning it would double up the life lost though.

It does, it gets multiple instances that stack, like exalted and dethrone.
