Deck genesis story
I’ve always loved the Hondens from Champions of Kamigawa.(2004)
I was inspired by a patron Michael Borchik (@MBorchik) to build a Kenrith deck, specifically with a less than perfect mana base. I decided to go ahead and make it a 5-color enchantress deck, with all 5 of the Hondens in it.
This solved a couple of problems the Kenrith deck had.
I had to run too many tutors to reliably find the shrines
Kenrith didn’t really interact well with the shrines
Talk about how cool Sisay is, and how she does all the things a shrine deck would want.
I sent email to myself to look at Sisay in the morning. Also, I included Kethis, Enduring Renewal, Estrid’s Invocation, Mirage Mirror, Sterling Grove, Privileged Position, Fountain Watch, Teshar (this was wrong, I was thinking of Shalai, and that’s also wrong) and Captain Sisay. Many of these didn’t make the final cut.
I was just planning on updating my Kenrith Deck, and adding in the 6 new Shrines, but one night I was drifting off to sleep, and I had an idea. Sisay, Weatherlight Captain!
The Shrines all scale as you get more shrines, kinda like the Slivers of enchantments. This will give you inevitability if the game goes long enough, and if there aren’t many “destroy all enchantments” effects.
Do this live
Let’s rank the original Hondens from worst to first in Commander
Do this live
Let’s do the same thing with the new Sanctums
So, what makes this deck so cool?
Protection
Sterling Grove
Privileged Position
Greater Auramancy
Fountain Watch
Creeping Renaissance
NOTE: Technically, you do NOT need to run these, because Sanctum of Tranquil Light is a single mana, and fetchable with Sisay before she is pumped up.
Sword of the Chosen
Shadowspear
Sword of the Animist
Blackblade Reforged
Okina, Temple to the Grandfathers
Sisay Enablers
Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain (gonna be nuts in this deck)
Niambi, Esteemed Speaker
Various Enchantresses
Card Draw
Jhoira's Familiar
Honor-Worn Shaku
Ramp
Captain Sisay
Primeval’s Glorious Rebirth (Discuss if Eerie Ultimatum is just better?)
Urza’s Ruinous Blast
Legends Matter
Raff Capashen, Ship’s Mage
Thran Temporal Gateway
Weatherlight
Historic Matters
Meishin, the Mind Cage
Profane Procession
Search for Azcanta
Teferi's Ageless Insight
Oath of Kaya
Other cool Legendary Cards
Vernal Equinox
Paradox Haze (Doesn’t work with 5/6 of the new Sanctums, but really cool with 1 of the 6!)
Other cards
Other Categories of cards
Main Topic -Sisay Shrines Deck Tech
What a cool deck! Full of awesome interactions, and legendary cards. Also, it’s totally on point Flavor-wise (I mean there are THREE weatherlight Captains in this list…). To audience land, what cards would you put in here? Is this the kinda deck you would play?
