haha, no, Homelands was by far worse than Fallen Empires...
Goblin Grenade, High Tide, Hymn to Tourach, Breeding Pit, both the pumpable orders, Soul exchange, goblin war drums.
Now, Homelands... crap, well, you have Merchant Scroll
And on the note of Homelands, came across this little gem... Soraya the Falconer, haha

But without homelands you would miss out on great cards like:
joven
or his ferrets
not to mention NARWHAL!
I did see a few decent cards: Giant Oyster its not awesome but its probabbly one of the bests in the set. And thats not saying much. DrPaintThinner fucked around with this message on 04-19-2005 at 07:56 AM.
An-Zerrin Ruins would be really nice against theme decks like goblins or soldiers.

Was that sarcasm? 
Anyways, yeah, slivers work, slivers work real well. Crystaline sliver is the keystone to it all, you run them, other slivers and counters. Your creatures are all immune to any targetted removal and you keep a counter lock on your opponent's wipes and combo pieces and just beat him down with flying beatsticks that keep getting better as the game goes on. All hinges on Crystalline.

I mean has anybody HERE tried one out. I've heard it both ways, but never from anybody who'd actually used one.

Had a guy who was an obsessive magic player.. had a deck for every situation (including a sliver deck.) He'd play a hand (5way, more fun that way), see what we were all running, then pull a deck out of his footlocker while we simply reshuffled ours, then obliterate us all (All of us) in <20 turns or so. We banned him from playing with us unless he swore to only bring one deck (No sidebar that's essentially another deck) for the entire night.
Yes, slivers are as horrible as you think, and work as well as people say they do.

My favorite deck is my sliver deck. Vorago is right, Crystalline is a vastly important part of it if you're against a deck that bounces your creatures or destroys them. Talon is also nice for completely eradicating any chance of the opponent attacking and not losing creatures, And as soon as Sliver queen and coat of arms is in play, you basically win unless the opponent gets lucky.

They made new Slivers in the Legions set, very powerful slivers in common, uncommon and rare in all 5 colors.
Sliver decks are a powerful prescence in casual play now.

That would kind of suck.
A single deck over a whole night of playing would get boring.
