Winged Sliver was known for being excellent! This is significantly better.
I'd say strictly better if there wasn't the rarity gap.

Hehehe. I guess now I know why the new slivers look so humanoid: They now live within an "us" versus "them" paradigm within their own kind ~ a very human quality.

This card is not strictly better than Winged Sliver especially in the environment you would have to make a decision between the two. Being a two drop actually makes it so that you don't waste a turn with Aether Vial and you get that beloved 2 counters it wants to have most of the time.
Now in terms of this or a reprint of Winged obviously this is better but why would you really want to splash U and hold this in hand when you have the choice to go with an aggressive GRW aggro in modern or standard. Don't get me wrong this is an amazing card to be added into any collection but it is taking too much attention from other things it seems.

You didn't want to, but now you HAVE to splash Blue into your Slivers. No regrets

I don't understand why blue devotion decks aren't playing with 4x this instead of 4x Cloudfin Raptor. The reason I ask is that they're all running 4x Mutavault, and when those decks also sport Master of Waves...well I just think that Cloudfin is looking weak.

@Jhyrryl until you realize that when Master of Waves enters the battlefield, making 5+ tokens, Cloudfin Raptor becomes a 6/7 flier, since all of the tokens trigger evolve simultaneously.
