About Bant

Bant, Plane — alara, designed by Michael Komarck first released in Sep, 2009 in the set Planechase Planes and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.

A deck that focuses on attacking with a single powerful creature would benefit from using the Bant card, as the exalted ability boosts the creature's power significantly. However, there are potentially better cards that offer similar effects more efficiently, such as Rafiq of the Many or Finest Hour. Whether Bant should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as well as the overall power level of the format it is being played in.

Rules

07/01/13

A creature with a divinity counter put on it due to the chaos ability retains indestructible even after Bant stops being the face-up plane card.

10/01/09

A plane card is treated as if its text box included “When you roll , put this card on the bottom of its owner’s planar deck face down, then move the top card of your planar deck off that planar deck and turn it face up.” This is called the “planeswalking ability.”

10/01/09

Exalted abilities will resolve before blockers are declared.

10/01/09

Exalted bonuses last until the turn ends. If an effect creates an additional combat phase during your turn, a creature that attacked alone during the first combat phase will still have its exalted bonuses in that new phase. If a creature attacks alone during the second combat phase, all your exalted abilities will trigger again.

10/01/09

If you declare exactly one creature as an attacker, each exalted ability on each permanent you control (including, perhaps, the attacking creature itself) will trigger. Note that if a creature has multiple instances of exalted, each one triggers separately. The bonuses are given to the attacking creature, not to the permanent with exalted. Ultimately, the attacking creature will wind up with +1/+1 for each of your exalted abilities.

10/01/09

The controller of a face-up plane card is the player designated as the “planar controller.” Normally, the planar controller is whoever the active player is. However, if the current planar controller would leave the game, instead the next player in turn order that wouldn’t leave the game becomes the planar controller, then the old planar controller leaves the game. The new planar controller retains that designation until they leave the game or a different player becomes the active player, whichever comes first.
