Cliffhaven Kitesail

Grant flying to a creature, and do it for a total of one mana on the turn it lands: the enters trigger auto-attaches, so this Equipment plays more like a one-shot Aura that happens to survive its host. That distinction is the whole reason to reach for it over the cheaper sorcery-speed flying enchantments. When the equipped creature dies, the Kitesail stays on the battlefield, and the equip cost of lets it hop onto the next threat rather than dying with the first. That resilience is the trade: a permanent that resists removal-based two-for-ones costs more to move than it did to cast. Evasion enablers this cheap tend to be single-use spells; putting the effect on a piece of equipment converts a temporary buff into a reusable one, at the price of a slower reattach. The card asks a narrow question of a board: is there a creature here whose only obstacle to profitable combat is a blocker in the way? When the answer is yes, one mana buys flight now and keeps the option of buying it again later, which is a different bargain from the enchantment version even when the immediate effect looks identical.
