Just so you know for each Virulent Sliver and Sidewinder Sliver in play they'll stack, so two Virulent Sliver's in play for example each sliver will do normal dmg and 2 poison counters, same with multiple sidewinders stacking.
Even after the printing of Predatory Sliver, Slivers has only ever had a very moderate level of success in the format. It's too easy for the control decks of the format to pick it apart with removal on the key Slivers and there are faster aggressive strategies around like Stompy, Cyclops, and Delver that do much better in this regard.
It's about on the same level as White Weenie in terms of competitiveness. Both are decks that can occasionally do well in Dailies but they haven't been dominate any time recently (and unless something new is printed or bannings take place I don't see that changing anytime soon).
Also Thrill of the Hunt is a pretty good card in Slivers if you haven't tried it.

Idk hasn't been my experience, even mono black control I believe is 50/50 with my version in my experience, I <snip> UW enchantment control, delver, burn, Tron, white weenie, infect, green stompy most the time. I haven't met a deck in pauper I feel in just a terrible match up in the last 8 months playing pauper online and in Seattle.
Use of rape in that context is completely inappropriate. - Rai

Call me skeptical, but if the deck was as good as you claim it is it would cash Daily Events far more often than it does. Looking at posted results it hasn't had a 3-1 or better record since the end of November and struggles to get even one per month. A lot of those decks you mentioned are barely played - UW enchantment control (assuming you mean Acid Trip), White Weenie, Infect, Burn. What of your record against Esper Familiar, or UR control, or Nivix Cyclops/Kiln Fiend Combo, or Affinity, or Hexproof?
I've played against the deck before, and it's okay but certainly not on the same level as the top decks of the format.
I really need to get Magic Online, and stop playing on Cockatrice lol, I mostly want to get into modern and pauper daily's... Against kiln fiend I feel slightly favored, affinity wins usually off a atog+fling otherwise i feel good about fighting them. UR Control, Mono Black control, and the familar deck I do feel they are slightly favored, 60/40-50/50 depending, uninterrupted I usually threaten a turn 4 kill or a turn 5, it's whether familar goes off. Hexproof I need to fight more, but I've won and lost to them. Those are just my thoughts on these decks from experience playing against them on Cockatrice and a few of them in real life.
Mtgo is a really great experience compared to Cockatrice, no jokes. And it's really not that expensive to play Pauper, unless you're buying Pyro/Hydroblasts. It's generally more competitive as well, which is nice.
Honestly Cockatrice is even less competitive than the Tournament practice room on MTGO. Never mind going into a Daily Event where the average player will be much better than the average user on Cockatrice.
Don't get me wrong I used to play on Cockatrice and it's nice that it's free but if you're serious about being a competitive player MTGO is way better (even if the program kind of sucks).
