Sliver Overlord
Use Sliver Overlord to tutor key keyword-granting and stat-boosting Slivers to create an unstoppable, evasive army while holding up anti-board-wipe spells to protect your board state.
Asked for“Sliver tribal deck led by Sliver Overlord, using the shared-keyword lords to make the whole board huge, with protection against board wipes.”
Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.

The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
