About Shopkeeper's Bane
Shopkeeper's Bane, Creature — badger pest, designed by Filipe Pagliuso first released in Apr, 2026 in the set Secrets of Strixhaven.
**Shopkeeper’s Bane** (2G for a trampling creature that gains you 2 life whenever it attacks) would fit best in a **green-based midrange or aggressive deck** that wants efficient creatures and incremental life gain to win creature combat or stabilize against other aggro decks. Trample helps push damage through blockers, and repeated life gain can swing races, making it most appealing in creature-heavy “stompy” strategies or possibly in lifegain-synergy builds. However, in most competitive formats, there are likely stronger three-mana green options—cards like **Steel Leaf Champion**, **Old-Growth Troll**, or **Briarbridge Tracker** (depending on format) offer higher power, stronger stats, or better value without requiring combat triggers.
