Strategy
Go-Shintai of Boundless Vigor is a shrine-focused commander that turns your collection of enchantments into an ever-growing army. The plan is straightforward: play multiple shrines, then use Go-Shintai's triggered ability to dump counters onto them each turn. Since Go-Shintai counts itself, you'll grow at least one shrine by 1 each turn, and with more shrines in play, that growth accelerates exponentially. You're essentially building a counter engine that turns modest enchantments into monstrous threats.
Win conditions center on either swinging for massive combat damage with your shrine army or using Go-Shintai itself as a commander damage threat. The deck is naturally defensive in early turns since shrines are passive and you're not racing anyone, so you can hold up mana and grow your board undisturbed. By mid-game, your shrines should be hitting hard. Most games won't need combo pieces—just patience and shrine density.
