Provenance

Where it came from

The First Sliver was originally introduced in the Modern Horizons set in 2019, marking a significant return for the iconic Sliver creature type in Magic: The Gathering. As the legendary progenitor of the hive, the card was designed to anchor Sliver-themed decks by allowing players to cascade into additional creatures, emphasizing the evolutionary and swarm-based nature of the tribe.

This specific variant, appearing as card number 3 in the MagicFest 2025 promotional series, features updated aesthetics consistent with the event's commemorative offerings. The illustration continues the tradition of the creature's bioluminescent, multi-limbed design, intended to evoke the alien and hive-mind identity that has defined the Sliver aesthetic since its debut in the Tempest block.
