@ Ferlord Please, just don't. Don't compare this and Blade Splicer. The splicer was four P/T and card advantage for three mana. In a standard environment rife with way to abuse the EtB. This is a Regal Unicorn with tribal relevancy.

Pretty awful compared with Plated Sliver. 2 mana for +1/+1? No thanks.

I really like the art for this one, even if it doesn't scream "Sliver" to me. Toughness, I'm cool with.

I'm going to have to hope that this cards RIDICULOUSLY low rating (seriously, its lower than freaking cyclops tyrant as I write this) is due to the hate for the new slivers and not its actual usefulness.
You have no idea how useful this guy is in a sliver deck. People say this is only a defensive ability but it helps a tonne on the offense too.
You: Turn 2, Predatory sliver
Them: Turn 2, Random bear
You: ***... well I'm not trading my sliver for that... oh wait, Steelform Sliver says I don't have to. Bash
Them: Why didn't I shock when I had the chance.
Its obviously not the greatest sliver out there, but the Veteran Armorer effect always has been and always will be very useful. Very easy 3/5

Probably the worst of the M14 slivers. Even Veteran Armorsmith was a common, and it cost .

Honestly, the art looks similar to some kind of Phyrexian thing from New Phyrexia. It's body kind of reminds me of Blade Splicer, which is kind of ironic: They both are boosters of a mediocre sub-type in the set.

There are so many better slivers than this in this set. There's not really ever going to be a reason to run this.

I hope we all realize, we've rated this worse than Sliver Construct. Which means the community would rather a 2/2 sliver that does absolutely nothing for 3 than one that boosts your entire team.
Not that I'm saying I like it. It's one of my least favorites. But, come on, guys ;)
