Minecraft Banner Ideas and Designs

5. Templar Banner

Banner Code: /give @p minecraft:red_banner{BlockEntityTag:{Patterns:[{Pattern:cr,Color:0},{Pattern:sc,Color:14},{Pattern:bo,Color:0}]}} 1

This first Minecraft banner design is incredibly simple, yet it looks awesome. You only need four different patterns, and the Templar flag that it creates looks great! If you’re an Assassin’s Creed fan or a history buff, you’ll love this Templar banner.

4. Hiragana Banner

Banner Code: /give @p minecraft:black_banner{BlockEntityTag:{Patterns:[{Pattern:bri,Color:0},{Pattern:cs,Color:0},{Pattern:bo,Color:0},{Pattern:bl,Color:0},{Pattern:glb,Color:0}]}} 1

Okay, okay, this obviously isn’t early Hiragana. However, it’s the closest we’re going to get on a Minecraft banner. Japanese-style builds are incredibly popular, so what better way to complement those koi ponds and Samurai temples than with a Hiragana-looking banner?

3. Hylian Crest Minecraft Banner

Banner Code: /give @p minecraft:blue_banner{BlockEntityTag:{Patterns:[{Pattern:flo,Color:14},{Pattern:hh,Color:11},{Pattern:tt,Color:4},{Pattern:ts,Color:11},{Pattern:cbo,Color:8}]}} 1

It speaks volumes about just how impressive Minecraft’s design system is that you can put together an accurate-looking Hylian Crest.

Obviously, this banner is perfect for Legend of Zelda fans. Whether you’re working on a Zelda-inspired world or not, if you’re a fan of the series, you should have this banner at hand. You could even through it on a shield, if that’s the way you wanted to go.

2. Pokeball Banner

Banner Code: /give @p minecraft:white_banner{BlockEntityTag:{Patterns:[{Pattern:hh,Color:14},{Pattern:mr,Color:15},{Pattern:ts,Color:14},{Pattern:bs,Color:0},{Pattern:ms,Color:15},{Pattern:mc,Color:0}]}} 1

From one fan-favorite Nintendo series to another with this Pokeball banner. This one is super simple to create, and it looks pretty true-to-form compared to an actual Pokeball design.

Don’t feel limited by only having a regular Pokeball design, though, because it’s also possible to make Ultraball, Greatball, and Masterball designs on Minecraft banners, too.

1. Bowl of Rice Banner

Banner Code: /give @p minecraft:black_banner{BlockEntityTag:{Patterns:[{Pattern:dls,Color:12},{Pattern:dls,Color:15},{Pattern:mc,Color:0},{Pattern:hhb,Color:14},{Pattern:cbo,Color:15},{Pattern:bs,Color:15}]}} 1

Lastly, we have this simple bowl of rice banner. This isn’t from any franchise, and it’s not trying too hard, which is what makes it such a nice-looking banner. It’s plain and simple, which lends itself to the design very well. This wouldn’t look out of place in any kitchen or ramen shop, so make a point of making one!
