Bane Aristocrats is a very unique style of a very common archetype. Being in Esper he brings a lot of cards and colors to the table and even a few synergies and combos that are unique to him. He may not be as powerful as Yawgmoth but he can bring just as much value to the table with a twist that makes games more interesting for both you and your opponents. I think that some people have had the wrong take on this commander such as Mitch from the commander's quarters who believed that your opponents would always let you draw a card, I believe that is not the correct way to look at it. Bane gives you access to fun political plays and gives your opponents something to think about when targeted for his abilities. Overall my experience with bane has led to a lot of fun for you and your opponents as well as gameplay that is fun and unique with synergies that are exclusive to Bane.
