This seems to follow the increasingly likely possibility that slivers are only in Naya colors in M14. Another reason why they're lame compared to the originals.

The alternate, equally as plausible, explanation is that the reason we only have Naya slivers revealed so far is that 100% of the sliver spoilers have come from the naya coloured sliver deck in DotP.
I still don't believe that they would forgo the 5 coloured nature of slivers.
I'm sad that there are no unlockable old slivers. This will definitely be fairly subpar compared to other sliver decks...but they do have to balance the game for online play.

Sometimes I feel like the word "interactivity" around here is akin to the word "electrolytes" in sports drinks. The public doesn't really know what it means, but they figure it's a good thing to have.
Path to Exile is in the deck...Could they reprint it in M14? Part of me really hopes it is, but then the other half of me remembers how unfair Esper will be in Standard...and with Esper also getting Doom Blade and they already have Devour Flesh and Far//Away...they'll have WAY too many spot removal cards.

This is directly from the article, "Because slivers are found in all five colors, to really take advantage of them you need to run as many colors as possible."
I take that to mean there will be Slivers in all five colors in M14.
Someone mentioned in the other thread that the sliver deck might be 3 colors only because a 5 color sliver deck would be really clunky. Note too that naya is the 3 'starter' colors (the colors beginners typically like).

ever thought about the thing, that they could be only naya now, and the rest of the colors comes in theros?
Doesn't make sense for black sliver to exist in a set where every other sliver is white, green or red.
which means there'll be more black slivers and blue ones too

Lots of old cards listed in the unlockable list (e.g. Armageddon).
Winning a game will give you one card at a time for free.
Or, you can pay to unlock all cards in a deck at once.

Also, this could be wishful thinking on my part, but the fourth image here
http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/arcana/1247
looks like a black sliver to me.
Given the new benchmark for sliver look, I can neither confirm nor deny (any image).
Looks more like a White Sliver to me. It could be black, but it does seem to have the same basic visual design as the White neo-Slivers.
43/111, approximately 39% complete. Over a third done.

Yeah, that should really be a red mod note on every post stating a thread about DotP spoilers
And yeah,
That definitely looks like a black Sliver. If it were anything else, they would've been more specific and less vague in the Arcana.

What if it was in it's color???
Still likely a no, since R&D is very against good land destruction.

Not to mention, it would almost certainly be in the DotP deck if it were in those colors.

That seems really weird to me, as these are Shandalaran (Spelling?) Slivers. They aren't from Theros.
