Sliver Overlord and Sliver Hive

Asked by OdeToChaos 2 years ago

I built an EDH deck with Slivers and the text on Sliver Overlord reads Tap 3: Add a Sliver card to your hand. My question is: since it doesn't specify Sliver creature does that mean you can use it to grab Sliver Hive even though it's a land?

Unfortunately, no. What Sliver Overlord means it "search your library for a card with the Sliver type". You can find a card's type in the box between the abilities and art.

In the future, the "Rules Q&A" on the top of the page (or in the drop-down list from the three lines on mobile) is the place for this sort of thing. Thanks!

griffstick that wasn't that useful... telling someone something without explaining why is like giving a man a fish instead of teaching him to fish

I wanted to say no real quick I was just about to write alot saying it can grab a card that has changeling. For instance it can grab Ego Erasure, Blades of Velis Vel, Nameless Inversion, Shields of Velis Vel, Crib Swap, and Wings of Velis Vel.
