Banner for the Breed
Vanquisher's Banner is a compact anthem and card advantage engine that earns its keep in tribal Commander lists. As it enters the battlefield you pick a creature type and from that moment creatures of that tribe grow by one in both power and toughness. The effect is passive and immediate which makes the Banner a reliable curve filler for decks that want a steady boost without committing a slot to auras or permanents that tax your board state.
Beyond the stat bonus the Banner replaces itself when you cast a creature that matches the chosen type. That interaction rewards casting multiple creatures across the game and smooths out draws in long multiplayer matches. In practical play you string together early creatures and then leverage the Banner to keep threats relevant while refilling your hand. Fit it into lists that want consistent incremental advantage and the occasional surprise blow out in late game board stalls.
