I hate how they turned slivers into humans. Art on the old slivers is SO much better than the new

Still don't like the new sliver appearance. :/

I'm really disappointed with the new design for Slivers. The old look was iconic and different. It was one of those creatures that you connected to MTG, but now they just look like generic videogame monsters with dangly bits.

Well, this thing definately likes Sliver Queen. Well, all Slivers like Sliver Queen, but this one even more.
Just a shame that it's a 2/2 for five. Otherwise, it would be a bit too good though, I guess. 3/5

This was the Sliver that kind of helped me connect the new ones to the older Slivers. Older Slivers were pretty much squiggly lines, and we liked that. However, the new ones do still look like squiggly lines, it's just that now they're composed of a bunch of lines, not just a single line. You can see the resemblance to the older ones if you look for it. I just wish they still had the nose...

That's not a sliver.

R&D at once wanted and didn't want a new Sliver-specific Hellrider effect. In the end, they've printed what amounts to unplayable trash because they couldn't decide how to balance him properly. (Protip: Costing him outside the playable range, nerfing his P/T and making him Rare make him bad, not "fair".)
On the flipside, EDH Slivers have a new toy. I think that and Limited are about the only formats where he'll actually make a splash.
1.5 out of 5.

Should have been 'You're Screwed Sliver'

I saw someone run a G/R slivers deach with this, blur sliver and bow of nylea. then I realised what it did and got decimated by it.

Has it been explained as to why the slivers look humanoid now?
