All of the Banneret's are good in their own decks, but I think this may be my favorite. Simple, Elegant, Utilitarian, and Islandwalk fits snuggly with it's merfolk brethren. 4.5/5

of the 5 Bannetets, this is the most effective as most merfolk are wizards already.

4/1/2008 A spell you cast that's both creature types costs {1} less to cast, not {2} less.

Helps make Wizard Tribal more viable.

Essentail to any Merfolk deck. The added Islandwalk is a nice touch.

God damn WotC wants that Wizard Tribal to work. Pretty sad their own namesake gets trampled by elfs, tackled by gobbos, gutted by soldiers, and even eviscerated by fairie/rogues.
I'm waiting for them to start printing cards to hose wizards in the delusion that they are a threat.

Merfolk Wizards only cost one less but does the ability stack for multiple Bannerets? Also, might they stack on say a Merfolk Wizard where the first Banneret lowers the cost by 1 because its a Merfolk and the second one lowers the cost of the same spell by 1 because its a wizard? Also, does this ability work spells like Merrow Commerce and Summon the School?

I don't get it... You guys are saying that wizards are trying to make wizards more viable... When they are already terrifying... I have a wizard deck that I'm building... Would anybody like to donate a Patron Wizard, because wizard tribal is just so bad? No? Didn't think so.

I really want to run a playset of this in my faerie deck. Everything bar Scion of Oona is a wizard, so I'm hoping it might make it a little faster.

Works really well with Snapcaster Mage. Flashback any instant/sorcery for just an additional blue mana! 5/5
