  Sliver Overlord

• 

  Wilfred Mott

  This deck is built around +1/+1 counters, with cards like Sky Knight Squire and Fortune's Loyal Steed that benefit from additional creatures entering the battlefield. The deck aims to take advantage of ETB triggers, life gain, and +1/+1 counters.

• 

  Teval, the Balanced Scale

  The strategy for this deck wasn't fully revealed, but the player noted that it focuses on graveyard interactions, potentially using milling and reanimation strategies, possibly to create a horde of zombie tokens.

• 

  The Infamous Cruelclaw

  This deck aims to discard dragons into the graveyard and then reanimate them, potentially leading up to a massive Dragonstorm play for the win.
