If it's Commander, you'll have a bunch.  Check out the premium Sliver Deck:

{Gemhide Sliver} would be highly important.

Gemhide for sure!

"{Gemhide Sliver}.. I'll play my whole hand!" î,,

Also, {Might Sliver},
{Muscle Sliver},
{Watcher Sliver},
{Sinew Sliver},
{Plated Sliver},
{Armor Sliver},
{Crystalline Sliver},
{Blade Sliver},
{Bonesplitter Sliver},
{Brood Sliver}...

Sliver Pumpers! Minus the Crystalline, but he's just a badass.

Dude, almost none of the Slivers are bad. Just don't use {Metallic Sliver}, unless you need to.

He actually wouldn't be too bad, given that you have plenty of pumpers suggested, he would be pretty big and can still block a creature with intimidate of needed.
Tho of course there are plenty more artifact removals out there to take him down.

What's the one that gives them all flying, he should go in for sure.

{Winged Sliver}

If you ARE able to get a {Sliver Queen}, then {Mana Echoes} is killer.

I love {Crystalline Sliver}, but sometimes it can be a double-edged sword.  Like if you have {Magma Sliver}.

You'll need plenty of color-fixing.  {Cryptic Gateway} is stoopid-awesome.  {Dragon Arch} isn't too shabby either.

{Harmonic Sliver} is potent in many Metas.

blah, blah, blah

{Ward Sliver} can be extremely good sometimes, although he can have a downside like Crystalline, just a little less severe.

There's a sliver out there where slivers can only be blocked by other slivers.

{Adaptive Automaton}. "I. Am. Robo-Sliver. Beep. Beep. ERROR."

Some changelings might be fun too. {Chameleon Colossus}, {Changeling Titan}, {Mirror Entity} could be quite absurd in a sliver deck. Even though when it comes to the sliver benefits, much like my ex girlfriend, they are mostly just receiving, and not doing much giving.

You would for sure want {Eldrazi Monument}. Mass creature removal is pretty popular in EDH. It really sucks to be playing slivers, drop your whole hand, then have someone wipe the board.
