Feel like copy/pasting for those who can't access the mothership from work? :-P

I was really hoping they would print some of the harder to find rare slivers. This list is a shiny version of what most sliver players already have.

Yeah, that's a pretty sad list.

Oh look! FIRE! Group: Members Posts: 2,858 Member No.: 127 Joined: 5-February 07	i am disappointed in the list, however i will be looking to trade for at least the shiny rootbound crag, as by picking up one i will have a full playset of them. the list is almost horribly bad, i think my sliver EDH deck is significantly better, and i don't run stupid things like coat of arms (i have better things to do with my 5 mana) additionally, there aren't that many slivers that even get to pimp out my EDH deck i'll list them muscle sliver crystalline sliver brood sliver (dang it i just got a non foil one of these lol, its not actually in yet) heart sliver gemhide sliver fury sliver homing sliver necrotic sliver quick sliver virulent sliver winged sliver and sliver overlord the hibernation might make it in, as he's a cheaper version of my pulmonic/frenetic save my slivers plan. argh why is there no horned sliver? or shifting sliver or synapse sliver or GOOD SLIVERS? glad i'm only buying one now....

Commander and Chief Group: Members Posts: 928 Member No.: 121 Joined: 23-January 07	The list is pretty sad so in two years from now they can announce the "Better all-foil Sliver Deck - with Zendikar basic lands!!!" for $79.95 msrp.

Jury & Executioner too! Group: Members Posts: 1,461 Member No.: 308 Joined: 7-April 08	The fact that this thing includes a "foil deck box" is kind of neat, however. Too bad they didn't figure out a way to foil the spindown, too. EDIT: Or did they? The feature article on the mothership mentions a "metallic" spindown...
