Really. That's what they call it...

You know, I've had a revelation, recently.  Planeswalkers are an inherently powerful card type, providing awesome advantage when protected well.  Since they're powerful, they need to be balanced.  So, WotC uses the Planeswalker Uniqueness rule as a balancing factor.  To limit the power of "Superfriends"-style decks, they create multiple cards of the same character.  Think about it - If Ajani, Mentor of Heroes and Ajani, Steadfast were actually different character, and had different Subtypes, they could potentially be really powerful together.

It's just how the balance it.

Sliver Hivelord.



That is all.

Shoulda been a 7/7.  0/10 would play for that flavor fail.

10/10 would play in actual Sliver decks.

It could be a 1/1 for all I care. The article says that they tried it as 7/7 but it was too strong. Also, they were concerned that control decks would run it, because with pain lands, you might as well run {Mana Confluence} and a 7/7 indestructible is an amazing finisher.

Makes complete sense, but it still saddens me.

Oh maaaaan! Slivers: go away! But now they can't! Ugh, I've always cringed at this subtype/deck type (while still tipping hat at them).

Looks like Flaagha from Metroid Prime...

I'm glad they look like the old school slivers.. Not predators.

Anyone else have M15 lands from the Chicago GP and notice quite a difference in the card stock? Feels thinner and a bit flimsy. Light test shows a very different pattern in the paper.
