No, no...
It really does say that Slivers can't be the targets of spells or abilities...
...which, of course, is why it sucks. I mean, when you make your slivers untargetable, your opponent will just sit back and laugh. No one ever uses creature removal or anything that targets, and now you...
Well, there's Strip Mine though...
...and Sinkhole is much more potent (in monoblack) than something like Pillage...

Yep, sarcastic! That's what it is. Crystalline Sliver really sucks and I would trade it for a Snowfall. It's absolutely useless since it counteracts the totally awesome Magma Sliver, so why would anyone use it? :rolleyes:

So I don't see why you would need to build some insane deck just to show your friend...
Although I did do that with proxy cards...
But then again the one guy still plays with...
Yeah, I mean, if there were no moxes of any sort, no Sol Rings, Mana Vaults, Grim Monoliths, Strokes, Braingeysers, MoMas, Candelabras, etc. Tolarian Academy wouldn't be so good...
Correctness? But Crystalline Sliver is easily the best sliver there is...
I guess Muscle Sliver or Wing are somewhat close, but Crystalline is still definitely the best.
Jokulhaups and a deck that can empty its hand, or maybe a deck that uses mainly lands as the only permanent, then casts Argmaggedon after the Cheese is out. And there's also Kaevek's Spite, but that is a bit of mana because you have to use both cards during the same main phase (cast Cheese and...
Okay, I guess I do believe it. I mean, it is possible to kill someone with a Walking Sponge. Although why you would pay two mana for a 1/1 with no abilities (okay, so it has an ability, but it's a very pathetic one) instead of the standard one is beyond my understanding.
