smiten, you can't ban a card - much less a entire, popular tribe - just because you keep getting beaten by them.
Sliver decks are extra-weak to removal because of how they work. Just keep breaking them down before they have a chance to build up. Mass removal is also a must for those times when they outpace you (or get a Crystalline Sliver out there).
As long as you know you're facing a sliver deck it's easy enough to combat them. If you destroy aggressively and never let them establish a foothold (Which they do very very fast) then you can beat them.

Why is this common? Even by itself it can produce any kind of mana. This is just cruel

This card is over the top, esp for a common.

I lol'd.
Utopia tree does not compare. And in most cases this still beats BoP. Seeing as other slivers buff it and it can easily gain haste, Tapping down the same turn. It's a staple for slivers.

Very good Sliver. Mana-Fixing solution and ramps into Sliver Legend on turn 3

When you play slivers you want to drop this asap.
When you play against slivers you need to kill this asap.
And even without more of his kin this is Birds of Paradise and you can't really go wrong with more mana ramp/fix.

This has one me so many games... probably the best sliver (not includng the would-be mythics) , and defenitely the best sliver common.
