It may be tough for a three colour mana base, but {Mutavault} is a sliver

I thought about it, but I don't want to drop the cash when it is about to rotate. I probably would if not for that. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Yeah, it is quite expensive. No offence intended, but why is prophet in this? It just doesn't seem to fit.

Mutavault is also played in modern. Might be a good investment

Prophet is in probably so he can untap for his root born defenses when someone attempt a wipe, or negate it.  Also so at EOT, he can sphinx rev for an absolute .butt.ton.

Edit: also sliver hive is nice even if he doesn't have anything to cast

It will be an investment after it drops $10...buying right now would just be throwing away money.

With the Prophet, Anoobas is right on, that and flash, flash is incredible epecially when i can flash in slivers to take out creatures with {Constricting Sliver} or a {Megantic Sliver} after blocks and just win.

The {Sliver Hivelord} is a great add to the deck. I am going to test this:

-4x {Rootborn Defense}s
-1x {Hallowed Fountain}
-1x {Temple Garden}
-1x {Forest}

+3x {Mana Confluence}
+4x {Sliver Hivelord}

I'd suggest at least 2 {Chord of Callings} easily can get out that Lord!! Also with Sentinel you can swing X then before damage Chord for 6 and get a Megantic!!!

The same can be done with {Prophet of Kruphix} and {Megantic Sliver}, that is why Megantic is in the deck.

I might try it,  because I can chord for Prophet and Manaweft too if I need to.

Way back when you started talking about this build I've built my own versions just never tested them but chord is great!!
