Deck overview

This deck is a five-color Enchantress and Shrine engine helmed by Esika, God of the Tree, played almost exclusively as The Prismatic Bridge. The primary game plan accelerates mana on Turns 1 through 3 to resolve the Bridge on Turn 4. Starting on Turn 5, the Bridge cheats game-ending bombs like Sphinx of the Second Sun, Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Atraxa, Grand Unifier, and Aurora Awakener directly onto the battlefield without paying mana costs. In parallel, the deck builds a dense web of Shrines led by Sanctum of All and Go-Shintai of Life's Origin, which drain life totals and draw cards every upkeep. A formidable pillowfort shell consisting of Sphere of Safety, Ghostly Prison, Propaganda, Greater Auramancy, and Sterling Grove shields the board and prevents incoming combat damage. The deck finishes games by compounding Shrine triggers and animating enchantments with Starfield of Nyx and Destiny Spinner to close the table on Turn 7.
