Tribal Eldrazi loves this. Combine with Brood Warden to make some seriously pumped up spawns with Awakening Zones.
Also, the Soul Foundry, Doubling Season, Clock of Omens, and the imprinted Ornithopter loves this even harder.

I have a scenario I need help with.
I had coat of arms out, i also had 6 elf shamans out. and my opponent had 6 goblin shaman. I assume that all my elves as well as his goblins +11 +11 for all of them being shaman, but do my elves also get another +5 each for the other elves as well as his goblins get +5 +5 for the other goblins, my main confusion is, does this card count each creature type the creature has and gives it a bonus accordingly.
Example: Civic Wayfinder is an Elf Warrior Druid, does coat of arms check for all elves, then give him a bonus, then all warriors and then give him a bonus and then druids and then give him a bonus, or does it just check one and stop there.

@OpenSeasonNoobs
Simple solution: if you're playing another tribal deck, sideboard Coat of Arms. If you didn't know beforehand you'll most likely be able to tell by the time you have enough mana to play it, so don't play it.
@Kirbyguy91
No, it counts creatures, not creature types. The elves/goblins that were counted as shaman will not be counted again as elves/goblins.
I use this in my elf deck with Hunting Triad, Elvish Promenade and Rhys the Redeemed. I can easily get 15+ tokens, then play Overwhelming Stampede for lolz.

No one has even mentioned myrs yet.... I completely broke this card the other day, prototype portal imprinting this, and then using etherium sculptor to bounce myr battlesphere creating a near endless supply of tokens.... It was freaking hilarious.

Elves love wearing matching outfits.

Rhys, the redeemed, Awaking Zone, Creakwood Liege, Overrun, Overwhelming Stampede. And that were just some for green...

You guys are thinking too small. Myr Incubator lets you have an army of 40 or so 40/40 creatures, more with artifact lands. Wrath of God is an issue, of course, but if you can pull it off, just imagine your opponent's face.

I was playing a 3 way game one day...one person had kors , i had allies , and the other guy had slivers...we expected the guy with kors to have artifacts , as always...and he did....he unfortunately played this card...all hell broke loose.

TheRebel: from rulings: "Sharing multiple creature types doesn't give an additional bonus. Coat of Arms counts creatures, not creature types.", so the changing would get +1/+1 for each other creature on the battlefield, regardless of type, as it's every type. It would, however, ensure that every other creature on the battlefield got at least +1/+1, too. Very good for any tribal deck, especially a Green or White creature-heavy deck.
