Banishing Slash is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
Destroy up to one target artifact, enchantment, or tapped creature. Then if you control an artifact and an enchantment, create a 2/2 white Samurai creature token with vigilance.
How it works : Banishing Slash
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If you control an artifact that is also an enchantment as Banishing Slash resolves, you will create a Samurai token.
Card named in this ruling
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
You may cast Banishing Slash without choosing a target. If you do, and you control both an artifact and an enchantment as it resolves, you'll just create a Samurai token. However, if you do choose a target and that target is an illegal target as Banishing Slash tries to resolve, Banishing Slash won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. The illegal target won't be destroyed and you won't create a Samurai token.
