DESCRIPTION
don't laugh, it works.
look carefully, no really carefully, get past the fact that it uses slivers, and you'll see why it has one of the best matchups vs. x w control of almost any deck in the current format. it gets a pretty respectable win ratio against non-sarnia affinity(although defense grid in the sb can help there), and its match vs. goblin bidding is fairly even.
this build is much improved over my original version from my scg article was. you can find that article here

below is a link to a forum that is pretty much the internet capital for b r slivers. anyone who will take take the time to read it through, and wants to offer ideas or playtesting results is more than welcome

i hope you enjoy the deck. its seriously fun to play with, and very well prepared for the metagame as well
btw, ensnaring bridge is just broodstar+greaves tech, culling scales is for affinity utility artifacts, cop red, isochron etc., and patriarch's bidding does not fit in this build at all
