Favorite way to kill Banes?

Bane Knights, Thralls, or Ponies, what's your favorite way to kill Banes?

Not necessarily a tactica post (though definitely post tips if you've got them) but more of a search for the most satisfying way to kill the stupid things.

For me, I've really enjoyed using Battle Mage melee attacks. Had a game earlier this week vs. Goreshade2 where my opponent ended up cycling through like 25 or so banes by the end. Killed all but 3 thanks to the mighty mittens. 2 attacks with Beat Back in a 5 point, 6 man unit is pretty great.
