Naban, Dean of Iteration, Legendary creature — human wizard, designed by Ryan Alexander Lee first released in Apr, 2018 in the set Dominaria Promos and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 1 combos.
Naban, Dean of Iteration would be a great addition to a Wizard tribal deck in Magic: the Gathering, where the focus is on maximizing the triggered abilities of Wizard creatures. This card can create powerful synergies with cards like Azami, Lady of Scrolls or Riptide Laboratory, allowing for extra card draw or protection. While Naban is a strong choice for this type of deck, some players may opt for cards like Panharmonicon, which has a broader application and can double the triggered abilities of any creature entering the battlefield. Ultimately, Naban should see play in dedicated Wizard decks looking to maximize their synergies and trigger abilities.

Abilities that apply “as [this creature] enters the battlefield,” such as choosing a card name with Meddling Mage, are unaffected.

If a triggered ability is linked to a second ability, additional instances of that triggered ability are also linked to that second ability. If the second ability refers to “the exiled card,” it refers to all cards exiled by instances of the triggered ability.

If you somehow control two Nabans, a Wizard entering the battlefield causes abilities to trigger three times, not four. A third Naban causes abilities to trigger four times, a fourth causes abilities to trigger five times, and so on.

Naban affects a Wizard’s own enters-the-battlefield triggered abilities as well as other triggered abilities that trigger when that Wizard enters the battlefield. Such triggered abilities start with “when” or “whenever.”

The trigger event doesn’t have to specifically refer to “Wizards.” For example, an ability that triggers “whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control” would trigger twice if the entering creature is a Wizard.
