Awesome land card. Throw in Enchanted Evening and it becomes godly. I personally use this in an Angel/Enchantments Deck that I play just for fun. The deck consists of 4 Sigil of the Empty Thrones with some cheap cost enchants such as Serra's Hymn , Serra's Blessing , Angelic Renewal , and Aura of Silence. Works great thanks to Serra's Sanctum I can pay the heavy cost of Sigil of the Empty Throne during early game.
Great card. I rate a 5.

I run four of these along side four Deserted Temples in my Enchantment/Pegasus deck.

@ jilting_joker
I also have an Angel/Enchantment deck although I also run Luminarch Ascension in addition to the Sigils. Serra's Sanctum would be awesome in that deck, if only I could find some...

open a new tab/window and search for "opal". no, seriously, do it RIGHT NOW! then click on this link for Replenish. god, what a pain in the bum deck. then there's green/white enchantress decks, ugh! just because it's not Tolarian Academy or Gaea's Cradle doesn't mean it's not insanely overpowered.

"Hey, Wizards development team, let's make another colour-cycle!"
"Yeah!"
"...but not finish it!"
"BRILLIANT!"
It's okay, though. Black later got Cabal Coffers, and red... well, red has some very nice direct damage spells.
*cough, cough*

Serra's Sanctum is the Ringo Starr of Magic.

MasterOfEtherium, if the art is totally unique, how can another card look like it?
Anywho, it may be the worst of the 3 busted lands, but it's still insanely good. It's too bad that any deck running it tends to look more or less the same :/

Yep, thanks guys, I see it now.
Still, in a 60 card deck containing 4 Serra's Sanctum, 4 Opalescence, and 33 Leylines (seems risky to have 4 of the singularity one in light of the legend rule), the probability of drawing that chicken dinner of an opening hand is about .000234 or a little more than 1 every 5 thousand hands, if my math is right. And what you'd do with those other 19 cards of constructed space is beyond me. So, it works, but it's extremely inefficient. And, as someone said, the deck would be trash without the perfect hand or a favorable 1st or second turn draw.

Can power a first-turn win with Leylines and Opalescence.
