Life's Origin is such a strong commander. Back a few years ago, you could let people have their commanders on the battlefield for a bit so they could have fun, but some of these new commanders are absolutely Kill on Sight.
On match 3, last turn, if you had activated your commander during upkeep to get the sanctum of all on the board, you gotten three shrines, gone up to 10 total, and would have had lethal when the stone fangs double-proc'd at precombat main. They conceded regardless, but sometimes it's worth it to get another shrine on the board before the sanctums trigger.
At 41:08, another option I think is to mill yourself, giving you more potential Life's Origin reanimation targets. I love the deck and the video though, and keep up the good work!
Quality content as always. I made the slivers deck from a while back and greatly enjoy it, but seeing this is sparking a desire to play it. You're killing my wildcards bud 🤣🤣.
I remember when the first Kamigawa block came out and I tried to make a 5 color shrine deck. It rarely got off the ground lol. So I love seeing this one work even though I don't play anymore
First- All the love to LVD and another high-quality Brawl vid. These tend to be my favorites and you continue to improve (Banter, Deck tech, Editing, etc.) **/chef's kiss** B) This commander bothers me. The deck is All Over the format. Probably close to the most played, currently... and for good reason. If your investments are not answered (Fast!) the value is overwhelming and you quickly win. I find the design to be lazy and too powerful. Shrines were already a viable deck behind Kyodai, Jegantha, Kenrith or, to a lesser extent, Tazri, but you had to work for them! This is just easy, brute force shrineageddon that requires every other deck to have both plenty of creature answers and exile effects for non-creatures (or at least graveyard hate). Perhaps if the tokens were 1/1 vanilla OR if every subsequent shrine didn't proc new token(s) it would be a less bitter pill, for me. With all of that stated, it is one of the most satisfying decks to play against and win. The more savage the beating the better :D
In match 7 there is an argument for milling yourself with go-shintai of lost wisdom since you can return back found shrines with your commander. Idk if its better or worse
Cool deck! I will eventually build an EDH deck in paper, but I've been leery to build Sythis deck. We have a modern enchantress deck that I'd feel like would be a little too much overlap. But 5 color shrines might have enough variety, while still having a ton of the insane enchantment synergy. Zur would be another interesting option.
Given the amount of ramp and the addition with time warp/synergies with end step, I would think it's safe to remove a land for "Alrunds Epiphany" as well. Taking two turns in a row with shrines will usually end the game.
Go shintai edh deck loves song of creation to just dig through my deck and drop any of the replenish effects. Then you get gross stuff like omniscience, cleansing dawn/blood moon combo, or one turn with 17 shines
This list runs the sub-par Shrines and I feel the need to replace them with one-sided board wipes and counter magic. But, overall, a great list with an even great Pilot 👍
the omnipresence of both this Commander and Miirym in Historic Brawl is frankly a bit annoying and monotonous. but always appreciate Legend Brawl content regardless.
@@xendros31 yea, theyre kinda like the kamigawa equipment creatures, where theyre that because only equipment can be equiped, and not because its a creature type
For those of you running into trouble with the matchup, try Barrier Breach and Back to Nature. First exiles up to 3 enchantments and an be cycled, second destroys them all. Perfect for ruining a Go-shin players day!
I've been running up against this a lot the last few weeks. It's super boring and if you don't have an answer to the commander, multiple times, you just lose. The tokens being shrines also is just too strong. They should switch them to spirits.
as far as i know, its more or less the state of reaching enlightenment in buddhism. zen buddhism is historically a japanese philosophy and a these shrines are from kamigawa, which is the mtg equivalent of mythological japan. so this deck allows you to transcend the suffering that comes from losing... or something, lol.
Destiny Spinner vs the merfolk was just brutal
Frilled Mystic in shambles
OH IVE BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS ONE
26:30 If you're running Sisay, you might run 1 or 2 legendary lands for this scenario
Good point!
Yeah eiganjo or any of the other kamigalalala lands would be neat

Shoutout to the opponent shrine player being named "Lil Urza Vert" that's top tier haha
Thank you very much for time and masterful gameplay, master LegenVD.
5 Color Shrines just keeps getting better and better. Outstanding.
I’d love an updated version of this.

Always love your MVP card choice, especially this one since the token really do a lot from going face to just buffing the other shrine

Never liked commander that much, but this deck is the real MVP!
Keep it up!
Pulling Destiny Spinner against that poor merfolk deck... that was just brutal!
34:40 That was smooth, not pausing a beat, acknowledging auto tapper and manual tapping
Shrine decks are so flashy when they go off, it's beautiful

Awesome video. I don't play any of the 5C Commanders really but this deck is pretty sweet. Thanks.

The shrine deck was already busted. This is just insane!
I see this deck in 75% of matches these days.
It's always a good day when LVDaddy hits us with a new Historic Brawl!

I love shrines... I hope that they will be viable in Standard in near future again. Beautiful deck.
The opponent not spit flaming the ornithopter was huge lol
Yesssss more brawl, I love it!
Would like to see your deckbuilding approach to a Volo, Guide to Monsters brawl deck :)
It's been one the Patreon poll before!
YES! Favourite commander
Is Shorikai in arena yet? I've been wanting to make a vehicle deck but I suck at using Greasefang
Man, this deck smells of teen spirit.
Little comment to boost the algorithm, love the content.

This is awesome.

Did I miss why Weaver of Harmony didn't make the cut?

I think Shrine are like Slivoid: you know what's going on but they are no stop into this train.
Too bad you're on the road of those deck
Been waiting for this commander since they announced it and finally getting to see shrines have their spot is just glorious!
What are the weaknesses of this deck? Pure aggro? Since there are not many enchantment boardwipes in Historic Brawl.
Showing this to my friend so he knows it's normal if he doesn't want to keep playing while I'm running Shrines on paper.
I declare this deck unbeatable except to itself.
Ugin appear last game so cute lol
My game glitches sometimes but once I played 2 lands without anything on the battlefield.
My game froze and crashed because I tried to Scry 1 with a Silver Raven. How this game still works is a mystery.
@@KiuhKobold wotc is a small indie company
Shrine is a creature type right? Like for a maskwood nexus or other changleings? Might be a replacement for the rares I’m missing if it works
I believe it's not a creature type but an enchantment subtype only.
@@LegenVD that’s unfortunate. Those kamigawa shrines are creatures so they should make it a creature type as well
Fantastic video as always!
Thoughts on Weaver of Harmony in this deck?
It was in the previous build, definitely a good card, but tends to be a magnet for removal in a deck that otherwise doesn't care too much about it.
Certified paid actors: the deck 😏
I can't get the Jumpstart horizons cards how do I get those?
Craft them
I am cursed with a penchant for fair decks when this is what you find in brawl.
I see lvd been watching much abrew about nothing. Nice!
Can I get an Alesha, Who Smiles at Death video?
That mono blue player felt so terrible
the omnipresence of both this Commander and Miirym in Historic Brawl is frankly a bit annoying and monotonous.
but always appreciate Legend Brawl content regardless.
A maskwood nexus could be good in this deck. That way every creature you would have in play would also count as shrines.
shrine is an enchantment type, not a creature type.
@@zackestin1368 ok i thaught that it would work because of the shrine creatures thanks for letting me know :)
@@xendros31 yea, theyre kinda like the kamigawa equipment creatures, where theyre that because only equipment can be equiped, and not because its a creature type
I’ve got my own list and it’s nasty. Kind of curious if we went the same way
Not looking forward to going up against your decks on arena now lol 😭
Time to load up on enchantment destruction. Craft the new destroy all enchantments card from the new anthology
@@pr0fess0rbadass lol I think I have it, but still shrine decks are annoying 🤣
38:03 lmao
No double mana of the same type of a card? Get that companion in there
Time Warp!
For those of you running into trouble with the matchup, try Barrier Breach and Back to Nature. First exiles up to 3 enchantments and an be cycled, second destroys them all. Perfect for ruining a Go-shin players day!

4th or 3rd
I loathe the shrines deck. It's incredibly boring to play against. I auto concede to it on arena at this point.
yup, auto quit, and find a match against someone who isn't a d-bag
I agree...wasn't a fan when they spoiled this commander.
Yo
Shrines should have been instantly all permanently banned from all formats years ago. It’s absurd how someone can sit there afk and win.
I’ve been destroying these with jhoria
