Sanctum Spirit
Creature — Spirit
Lifelink
Discard a historic card: Sanctum Spirit gains indestructible until end of turn. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)

@ Omniscience_is_life I understand, as I also struggle with cutting! And in a lot of ways it also depends on what you find yourself playing against. As a notorious recovering durdle player, I've found it helpful to evaluate a card by means of if it's proactive in doing what your decks wants to do or winning. For example, in your current list, Sanctum Spirit I've found to be underwhelming as well as Darksteel Pendant . But it could work for you if you find yourself playing against a lot of aggressive decks or sweepers! Gift of Immortality Works towards the same goal of sweeper protection, and opens up additional toolbox plays with your other spirits, so that would be my suggestion!
Also, minor land suggestion! Drownyard Temple and High Market . Drownyard Temple is a minor consistent way of ramping after your pony smashes lands, and is another card that is ok chucking to the bin if someone wheels. High Market also opens up a cheeky Yosei, the Morning Star lock when paired with Emeria, The Sky Ruin to lock down a single opponent, which seems to be in the salty spirit of the deck!

I like this deck and have been playing around with Standard Spirits myself. Instead of running Sanctum Spirit I run Mirror Image as it can be copies 5-8 of Supreme Phantom or Departed Deckhand. Great to see Slaughter the Strong, I think a lot of people are sleeping on how strong that card can be.
Drakorya on BRAWL: Teshar?

It's possible to try to combo with Teshar, Ancestor's Apostle, but because Brawl is a singleton format it becomes pretty convoluted and difficult.
The combo would involve having Teshar on the battlefield with Scrap Trawler and Sanctum Spirit. You would also need Metalwork Colossus in your hand or graveyard, and either a Mox Amber or an Ornithopter in hand.
You can then discard the Metalwork Colossus to Sanctum Spirit, cast the Ornithopter (or Mox Amber) and sacrifice it and Scrap Trawler to return Metalwork Colossus to your hand. Use the Scrap Trawler's trigger to return Ornithopter to your hand, then cast it and use Teshar's trigger to return Scrap Trawler to play.
You can repeat this process ad infinitum. Then if you have an Aetherflux Reservoir or Bontu's Monument on the battlefield you can win from the triggers.
All that being said, it's probably way to convoluted to be a reliable win condition. And it would involve adding quite a few cards to the deck. But I thought I'd mention it just in case you're a fan of janky combo wins like I am.

Good effort on the deck. Some ideas: I kind of feel like you need more 4 ofs to make the deck more consistent if you want to get aggressive, but this is difficult due to the legendary rule. Hence, is your deck aiming to win quickly by beating down with Champion of the flame, Serra Disciple, Cartouche of zeal and Frenzied rage - maybe add Inventor's Apprentice and Toolcraft Exemplar? - or is it more midrange and grindy with Sram, Blackblade and Tragic poet (who i would cut or move to the sideboard - Restoration Specialist might be more consistent than poet or Tiana). Overall I think the cards available look more midrange, so maybe add Seal Away or Thopter Arrest. Consider cutting Squee who even though is hard to kill offers poor synergies (other than being a legend). Consider Board the Weatherlight for card selection/draw. Teshar, Ancestor’s Apostle fulfills a similar role. For your sideboard consider Cataclysmic Gearhulk as you should be able to get good value leaving behind one of each type whilst your opponent will not. Also, Sanctum Spirit might have a role somewhere? Good luck!
