This is one of the stronger slivers, its like vigor, but less unfair.

Problem is, most slivers are fairly fragile. Now if only we could get an indestructible sliver...

what happens if this sliver attacks and is blocked by a 1/3 first strike creature

if it was blocked by a 1/3 first striker it would take 1 dmg, get a +1/+1 counter and kill the 1/3 with normal damage. All in all I'v been disappointed by this card. it just doesn't seem worth it's cmc or rarity to me. most of the time I'd rather have a muscle sliver.

This card served is functions just fine. First, it hearkened back to Fungusaur. Second, it did sliver-y things. Third, it had the same name and creature type.
Interaction with infect? If this puts +1/+1 counters on after infect damage, it would be real nice for sliver decks going against infect decks.

@Chrisknack The first strike damage resolves. Before normal damage the ability triggers and Fungus Sliver gets a counter, then "second strike" happens and the now 3/3 sliver kills the first striker.

Hmmm... This could improve Walls a nice amount, for Blocking.
Indomitable Ancients would probably love this card too.
Can you imagine the CMC they'd make an indestructible sliver?
It'd be so nuts though, you're right I'd love to see that.

To shorten:
The 1/3 dies.
