About Volunteer Reserves

Volunteer Reserves, Creature — human soldier, designed by Kev Walker first released in Jun, 1997 in the set Weatherlight and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.54.

This Volunteer Reserves card could be beneficial in a white weenie or aggro deck looking to build a strong offensive presence with banding mechanics. However, due to its cumulative upkeep cost, it may not be the most efficient choice compared to other low-cost creatures with similar abilities like Benalish Hero or White Knight, which offer more immediate impact without the upkeep drawback. Overall, while Volunteer Reserves has its niche uses, it may not see widespread play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks.

Rules

10/01/09

If a creature in combat has banding, its controller assigns damage for creatures blocking or blocked by it. That player can ignore the damage assignment order when making this assignment.

10/01/08

Creatures in the same band must all attack the same player or planeswalker.

10/01/08

If a creature with banding attacks, it can team up with any number of other attacking creatures with banding (and up to one nonbanding creature) and attack as a unit called a “band.” The band can be blocked by any creature that could block a single creature in the band. Blocking any creature in a band blocks the entire band. If a creature with banding is blocked, the attacking player chooses how the blockers’ damage is assigned.
