Lifecrafter's Bestiary
Artifact
At the beginning of your upkeep, scry 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it on the top or bottom of your library.)
Whenever you cast a creature spell, you may pay . If you do, draw a card.

This looks awesome; +1! I'd really recommend Aura Shards though; it's such a great control-tool in a deck like this. In its current form the deck also contains few draw-resources. Some ideas on this front would be Idol of Oblivion, Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Halo Fountain, Slate of Ancestry and Shamanic Revelation.

Greetings good sir! Thank you for the idea.
Guardian Project is a very good suggestion. The reason I run Lifecrafter's Bestiary is for the scry as it works with things like Herald's Horn.
Rhystic Study (along with Guardian Project) are somethings I run in other decks so I'm keen to diversify. Black Market Connections also ramps with the treasure and makes shapeshifting Slivers so I do like it.
Obilterate is a card I've always had a affinity for so that's why it's in over another wrath effect. Plus it's foil and can't be countered.
Virulent Sliver is there for the incidental poison and also because I need cheap early Slivers to turn into mana dorks(same with Muscle Sliver).
Intruder Alarm is something a few people have suggested and may just have to be added. I keep Chromatic Lantern out (it was in before) because the mana base is already good and I don't like rocks that can be easily destroyed. Harmonic Sliver can be a double-edged sword.
Coat of Arms is something I've recently thought about taking out for sure. It stays because it came with the original box and is easy to cast. (Call it nostalgia).
Sedge Sliver is an excellent suggestion. I'll be making space for that (might be Coat of Arms tbh).
Thank you for the suggestions. I'll take them on board and go check out your deck.

Hi there...
So logged onto Tapped Out, and another Sliver Overlord deck (your's in case you didnt guess) caught my eye. This pleases the Hive.
So firstly, will alway be a +1 for Sliver decks.
If I may, a couple of suggestions.
-
Lifecrafter's Bestiary swap for Guardian Project or The Great Henge You can get your draw then, without sacrificing green mana to allow the draw.
-
Black Market Connections (its a large life cost for very little gain swap for Rhystic Study Gives you repeatable draw WITHOUT sacrificing life.
-
Obliterate swap for Jokulhaups Its a just a cheaper better wrath honestly lol. Can keep your draw enchantments up too and Cryptolith Rite if you have it, giving massive mana advantage.
-
Virulent Sliver (honestly, 1 poison counter is not worth it lol) + Intruder Alarm Intruder Alarm will give you another way to combo out and put every sliver you have into play tutoring with Sliver Overlord. If you can make infinite tokens (from Sliver Queen) will combo with Lavabelly Sliver for the win.
-
Muscle Sliver swap for Chromatic Lantern Having played slivers for many many years, trample is so marginally important. You have total evasion with Shifting Sliver, Cloudshredder Sliver et al. Trample is just not that important. What is important... having available as often as possible.
-
Coat of Arms swap for Shared Animosity Means your attack bonuses only effect you
-
Predatory Sliver swap for Sedge Sliver If you have a Swamp you can regenerate, and you get the +1/+1... so strictly better
Hope you dont mind me putting my 2 pence/cents/whatever currency. If you would like to look at my deck, please just head over to my hive: Sliver Overlord - Predatory Super-Organisms

It's been a couple of years, and the Hydra horde have matured!
Thanks for all your great suggestions while I've been away. I can see that the deck could need an overhaul with all the wonderful new cards
The following are now under consideration
- Vivien Reid: all her abilities seems useful
- Unbound Flourishing: Wait what? More doubling! Sign me up, double time.
- Traverse the Outlands: Prune deck for all lands AND put them into play? Awesomesauce!
- The Great Henge: Seems alrigt. Not sure it's worth a slot, but ramp and card draw.
- Shadowspear: Trample and some other nice stuff
- Selvala, Heart of the Wilds: Very good alternate commander. Will clearly be better than Polukranos, World Eater, but I'm not sure I can have an Elf Scout piloting a Hydra deck? Or can I? If so, I for sure need
- Umbral Mantle to go full retard on the board
- Rishkar's Expertise may be quite a good draw spell, but I hate to discard
- Nissa, Who Shakes the World: Lots of more mana. Would never +1 her, but if she comes out under Doubling Season, the -8 emblem sounds pretty sexy.
- Monstrous Onslaught: There is a hydra on the card. Nuff said
- Lifecrafter's Bestiary: Could be alright to draw some cards. But makes X one less. not sure
- Karametra's Acolyte: bonkers ramp
- Invigorating Surge: double +2 counters on a hydra. Could be fine?
- Infiltration Lens: Fixes draw for cheap! In this deck it surely beats Skullclamp
- Garruk's Uprising: Pretty good draw engine for the hydrating hydras
- Emerald Medallion: Okay is. Not sure it's good enough compared to the more expensive options
- Branching Evolution: Wait what? Yet another doubler? How are you doing?
New Hydras to make room for:

I count only 2 draw option:
So I would add at least another 5 draw options. Maybe:
Also I count only 2 ramp spells. Maybe also 5 other ones:
Also I would include Mirror Entity: Nice synergy and a good win option.
With the high number of tappers I would also include Siren's Call
Also the number of Mass Removal is to low. Some options:

A few updates just from playtesting. Some of the cards were neat to see but not necessarily needed so I made some adjustments.
IN : Lifecrafter's Bestiary we need more card draw. This should help since most of the creatures are low CMC.
OUT: Descendants' Path Nice in thought but just really terrible in practice. Not enough creatures to make it worth while.
