And yes I know this deck is crap, but I still like playing it. So far it's had a modestly decent track record against goblins, and can sometimes stand up against many other upper tier decks. Duress and lightning bolt are likely needed here. All advice, and/or insults are welcome.

This deck seriously looks like you put sliver in the contains box and pressed the green arrow. Then proceeded to add all slivers known to man.

Slivers can be slightly viable if you know what your doing, I reccomend completely starting over from scratch, heres a sliver deck thats decent vs goblins etc. Its similiar to threshold but it doesnt rely on graveyard.

Land (17)

1 plains
1 forest
1 island
3 flooded strand
3 windswept heath
4 tundra
3 tropical island
1 savannah

creatures (17)

4 crystalline sliver
4 muscle sliver
4 plated sliver
2 talon sliver
2 harmonic sliver
1 winged sliver

Draw ( Cool

4 brainstorm
4 serum visions

Removal (5)

4 Swords to Plowshares
1 Umezawwas Jitte

Permission (11)

4 Daze
4 Force of Will
3 Counterspell

Random (1)

1 Worship

sideboard (15)

1 Umezawwas Jitte
1 Worship
4 meddling mage
3 Tormods Crypt
2 harmonic sliver
2 tivadar's crusade
2 Rule of Law

Not the best deck in the world but can hold its own.

I was hoping GRAH would say something like that. My track record against GRAH using slivers is currently 1-0. This was with my old ugw aggro build I played maybe 4 months ago, and he was playing burn too Laughing

You remember don't you? You won the first round, and then I had the upper hand afterwards due to essence sliver, and post board chills.

Anyways, counter slivers still has decisive advantages over aggro slivers, but I just don't find it as fun to play.

well than trash half of your deck, your welcome to play aggro vial slivers, just play some aggresive non creature spells too.

my suggestion is keep the essential creatures and run disruption and removal. it doesnt have to be counters, but duress bolt helix jitte therapy sword to plowshares... etc. are all valid choices instead of running 30 creatures.
