Its also wrong to say a sliver cant use it's abilities, depending upon what the ability is. Remember there are Activated, Static, and Triggered abilities. So for example a sliver that says "all slivers have: tap deal one damage to attacking or defending creature" has only a static ability printed on it. It also inherently has an activated ability granted by said static ability that it could not use if pithing needle was on it, but other slivers would still be granted the same activated ability as the static ability ("all slivers have____") is not being prevented in any way.

The guy in the art clearly decided to disable Brain Stem's ability Tap: Cogitate.

Slivers, lands, etc aside, this card is one of the most versatile sideboard cards ever. I have trouble thinking of another card that can be sideboarded in any deck like this card.

The only problem i have with it is the art, it reminds me of Kamigawa block, which was a block that got a big "meh" from me.

The guy saying that basic lands have no activated abilities is wrong. Of course they have activated abilities. Just check out the templates of the old lands, where they still read "tap: add somemana to your mana pool". But they're mana abilities (obviously) so naming "forest" won't help here. Well, unless someone put a squirrel nes or something on a forest. Then the ability granted to the forest by the nest can't be played anymore.

Anyway, this is a nice card all in all. Good to shut off planeswalkers or whatever annoys you.
