Where it came from
Battering Sliver was originally introduced in the 2007 Time Spiral set as part of Wizards of the Coast's exploration of the sliver hive-mind mechanic. The card was designed to grant the trample ability to all sliver creatures on the battlefield, reflecting the evolutionary nature of the creature type where each individual contributes a specific trait to the collective whole. This design emphasized the aggressive swarm strategy that defines sliver-based decks.
The version presented in Time Spiral Remastered, released in 2021, features artwork by Pete Venters. As a long-time illustrator for the Magic: The Gathering franchise, Venters was instrumental in establishing the visual identity of the slivers, characterized by their biomechanical and alien anatomy. This remastered edition was curated to celebrate the legacy of the Time Spiral block, reprinting fan-favorite cards with updated card frames and modernized foil treatments for collectors.
