Yes, it's best with other Slivers around. But fun fact: this is the ONLY 2-drop 2/2 vigilant creature in Magic's entire history that requires only one mana of a specific color. All the others cost 2 specific colored mana or have only 1 toughness. Look it up.
That makes this little guy pretty darn good, I'd say. 3.5/5 for general decks, probably 4/5 with other Slivers.

I'm surprised this guy hasn't garnered more attention. A 2/2 for 2 with a good ability seems like exactly what Slivers need (too many of their best abilities either cost too much or are on a bad bodies). The art does seem far too generic and a bit ugly, though. And exactly how big is this guy supposed to be? He looks like a giant there.

Excited for this set, my pauper sliver deck is getting some love with this card and Predatory Sliver, which will join the ranks of Sinew Sliver and Muscle Sliver. I can already taste my opponent's tears. Bwhahaha

@majinara Doesn't make them kill your opponent faster? Who wouldn't want to attack with all their slivers and then tap them later (via Manaweft Sliver or Gemhide Sliver) to summon even more slivers? And he's a 2/2. Wouldn't play 4 of in a deck but 2 is still very good.

Even if your slivers don't have tap abilities, it still helps you kill quicker, since it means you can always afford to attack with everything. Plus, of course, he's another warm body for your other slivers to boost, at a low cost.

Everything about this little dude is awesome. The art is one of the best new Slivers, he's a 2/2 vigilant for 2 ON HIS OWN and soon you will be able to send forth your horde without fear of retaliation. How amazing this guy is!

New slivers look stupid. Art direction seems to have forgotten that the Platonic Form of Sliver had already been established. I refuse to run these. My sliver deck is degenerate, but Her Majesty has standards, and this just won't do. Great card, though. 4/5

For limited he is early pick even as a lone sliver. And for constructed? Every sliver deck will play him.
(What is wrong with ratings, I see him at 2,8 it must be some awkward mistake)
