Shrine (Japanese: 祭殿; rōmaji: saiden) is an enchantment type.
Description
Shrines encourage multicolor decks, because they are all legendary, and do something during your upkeep for each shrine you control.
History
Shrines were introduced in Champions of Kamigawa. There were five shrines printed in as an uncommon cycle of Hondens. A Honden is actually the inner part of the shrine to a kami. The name of each Honden corresponds to the name of a legendary spirit—Myojin—in the set.[1]
Many years later, Core Set 2021 featured six new Shrines named Sanctums.[2] These were also depicted on Kamigawa.
Honden cycle
- Honden of Cleansing Fire () — Gain two life for each shrine you control.
- Honden of Seeing Winds () — Draw a card for each shrine you control.
- Honden of Night's Reach () — Target opponent discards a card for each shrine you control.
- Honden of Infinite Rage () — Deal damage to target creature or player equal to the number of shrines you control.
- Honden of Life's Web () — Put a 1/1 colorless Spirit token into play for each shrine you control.
Sanctum cycle
- Sanctum of Tranquil Light () —
: Tap target creature. This costs 
less for each Shrine you control. - Sanctum of Calm Waters () — May draw a card for each shrine you control, then discard a card if you did.
- Sanctum of Stone Fangs () — Each opponent loses life and you gain life equal to the number of shrines you control.
- Sanctum of Shattered Heights () — , Discard a land or Shrine card: Deals damage to target creature or planeswalker equal to the number of shrines you control.
- Sanctum of Fruitful Harvest () — Add mana of any one color equal to the number of shrines you control
- Sanctum of All () — Searches Shrines and puts them onto the battlefield. It doubles Shrine triggers if you control six or more.
Trivia
- Each of the mono-colored Sanctums has flavor text formatted and written as a Haiku.
