quick question , how does this card work with changelings as they are all creature types . i dont have the time to sit here and print all the creature types in the game but to me it seems like this + changeling + changeling = 2 99+/99+ monsters ??

There may be a sliver specific version of this card, but it won't matter too much unless your opponent is running tribal too, in which case they already probably have one. This one of course costs colorless mana.
Sliver Legion doesn't deserve mythic status.

In addition to the problem of boosting your opponents' creatures too (and if you're not careful you can easily end up giving away more benefit than you're getting), this also has another big disadvantage: It's really annoying to have to count up the bonus separately for each creature. Even if you're both playing tribal, it gets complicated due to most creatures having multiple types: Sure, all of your Soldiers share a creature type, but these two are also Humans, and share a creature type with three of your enemy's Allies, and oh, this one's a Goblin, that matches that dude over there, and wait, I've got a Changeling out, that gets all the bonuses, and...
And then you have to recalculate everything every time a new creature comes in, or one dies. Too much of a headache. Just use Door of Destinies instead; it's a lot simpler to keep track of (in addition to only helping you).

if i was to play this but had a Eladamri, Lord of Leaves in play or bring 1 into play afterwards. would the effect of coat of arms be canceled by the shroud the elves would have? is the effect of a coat of arms considered an ability?

actually, i made a sliver deck with the entire land base able to produce all colors, grand colliseum, the vivids, gemstone mine, thran quarry, reflecting pool, etc. So sliver legion is as easy to play as this :p, also, can you have more than two legends on the field at the same time (like a legion and a sliver queen)?

I used to think this was overpowered. Before I learned to put board sweepers in my deck.

An extremely valuable card for creature-specialised decks that summons alot of creatures or tokens sharing the same creature type (martial coup or conqueror's pledge).. The only bad thing is that it also buffs your opponent's creatures as well
With martial coup (X mana paid: 5)= five 6/6 soldiers= 30 combat damage
With conqueror's pledge (not kicked)= six 7/7 soldiers= 42 combat damage
With conqueror's pledge (kicked)=twelve 13/13 solders!!= 156 combat damage (Costs 18 mana)

I always play tribal decks, i have very few others... this was a staple in my rat deck, with Marrow Gnawer i got 600,000 rats on the field and then slammed down one of these... it was beautiful XD

@TheRebel:
"Each creature gets +1/+1 for each other creature on the battlefield that shares at least one creature type with it."
So the changelings would only get +1/+1 from each other, since they have at least one creature type in common.
The cruelest deck you could run this card in would be a Changeling deck, followed by Slivers.
