Megantic costs too much for what it does, steelform does nothing for you.
I play standard slivers, it's hyper aggressive, do it that way XD

+1 sentinel
+1 striking
-2 manaweft (you dont absolutely need these to win)

Take cromatic lantern into account for mana fixing too

And mutavaults if you have them, they are slivers

Well isn't it just basically 3 {Predatory Sliver} put together? I thought it would be good, especially late game, if control drags out the game.

If you're letting control drag out the game to turn 5/6 if they haven't missed a land drop you can almost say good bye to your chances

How so? I wouldn't exactly be letting them... If it got to that point, putting down the pressure with {Megantic Sliver} especially if it isn't countered would do nothing but help in that situation.

Mostly because you only have 2 Boros Charms and they have 4 Supreme Verdicts, 1-2 Elspeth, 4 Detention Spheres, Azorius Charms... Yeah.

Ah... So I guess a {Legion's Initiative} or 2 would work there? As well as no Megantic?
