(Sean) Do you hear that? The air is filled with cracks and snaps. It’s probably nothing. #MTGM14
just heard something weird on Twitter. A clicking, chittering sound from somewhere out of sight. Did anyone else hear that?
The Mogglings invented a great new ball game over the weekend. Wait… what’s that sound?
(Sean) We bred living shields over the weekend in anticipation for #MTGM14. Now we’re having a hard time keeping them all in one place.
The official Wizards Magic: the Gathering feed is currently posting several tweets directly inferring the flavor text of several Slivers while using the tag for M2014 including Muscle Sliver:
"The air was filled with the cracks and snaps of flesh hardening as the new sliver joined the battle."

Doctor, my eyes, tell me what you see. I hear their cries... just say if it's too late for me.
Doctor, my eyes...cannot see the sky. Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry?

Oh yeah!!, I hope slivers are back, I´ve been waiting for some time for new slivers, hope they update the Crystaline into some awsome hexproof sliver, and an unduying sliver,, and awsome slivers!
The return of Slivers is going to drive the price of Cavern of Souls even higher, and the chances of it being itself in M14 is probably fairly high. I'll be interested to see what people do with superb manafixing and 5 colors worth of slivers to play around with.
I'm more or less hoping Slivers is a Modern Masters thing more than an M14 thing.
Seriously.

Playing in Type 2...BGRJundHearted
Well, I just bought a copy of Sliver Queen for me Sliver Overlord deck, but if they would decide to **** the reserve list printing her, I dont care!, I love slivers.
It also raises another question: In directly quoting two multicolor Slivers, does this mean M14 will possibly be the first set we get gold cards in?
Technically, M13 was the first to have gold cards, namely Nicol Bolas. But yes, that was one of my thoughts, though they may have just picked it as a familiar flavor text, seeing as crystalline was one of the few to see competitive play.
Regardless, it seems very very likely we'll be getting slivers as the returning 'mechanic' this time. And logically, a core set block is the best way to bring back slivers, since you don't have to come up with as rigorous a storyline reason for why they're back from the dead for the 32nd time or accommodate them in your entire block, but instead you just get to mess with them for one set. My big question is whether it's going to be the classic sliver template, or if they're going to update it to "you control".
As far as Sliver Queen, it's likely a shot of the Sliver Queen oversized commander card, and meant to be another clue, not a reprint. If it is a reprint, they'll definitely have to accompany it with an explanation of why it's able to come back.

They've also tweeted similarly inferring the flavor texts of Hibernation Sliver, Crystalline Sliver and Heart Sliver.
Confirmed: No Sliver Queen Reprint:

(Sean) And no, sorry, no reprint on Sliver Queen. She'll be getting some new friends, though.

I'd be very surprised if slivers weren't in the pipes.

7/10
Given where creatures are these days, the return of slivers like Crystalline and Muscle aren't out of the question.

How will this balance out in limited? Enough printed to where its a thing, or too less to where its just an afterthought?
Either way, GLAD TO SEE IT BACK

Wouldn't be the first set, as Nicol Bolas was in M13.
But yeah, we'll see. Hopefully a new, mythic awesome sliver?

Also super excited about Slivers coming back. Will make me happy to play with creatures.
And by that I mean, they can always make a new one.
