I Know, I am a bit MONOTHEMATIC.


Sac 4 slivers (other than Basal Sliver) and play Army of the Damned to get 13 new zombie slivers, then sac 5 of them to pay the flashback cost and get another 13 zombie slivers onto the batterfield.
Thus, you can have a total of 21 sliver tokens and, of course, the possibility to sac them for 42 black mana.


More fun with:


- Gravecrawler: infinite black mana/ infinite storm.


- Gravecrawler + Gemhide Sliver: infinite any color from the next turn.


- Gravecrawler + Psionic Sliver: infinite damage from the next turn.

Hate to rain on your parade, but Gravecrawler refers to zombies, not slivers. You'd need to play Conspiracy calling zombies first and then play Hivestone, allowing for dual typing.

Actually Hivestone makes them slivers in addition to their other types, so it would work.

@Boyachi: as DracoJai6C4mtg stated, Hivestone makes them slivers in addition to their zombie type.

@DracoJai6C4mtg: Nice profile picture :-)

boyachi-i realize your point. im assuming the gravecrawler combos occur after army of damned is cast, because gravecrawler is pointless with slivers otherwise.

as for those combos you need one of the haste slivers in play to make #2 and #3 work

You assume correctly, Gericault5. I know that Gravecrawler can be played from gy only if I control another zombie creature. Of course the "for fun" part is in addition to the combo and not instead of it.

I saw the Basal Slivers and my brain stopped working completely. My apologies. I don't understand what made me realize Hivestone would work after Conspiracy when it was already working correctly to begin with Gravecrawler by its lonesome.
