Raubahn, Bull of Ala Mhigo

Legendary Creature — Human Warrior1 generic manaRed mana

Equipment decks have always fought the same structural problem: the payoff creature and the gear it wants rarely arrive in the same motion, and the turn spent equipping is a turn not spent attacking. This two-drop folds those steps together. The attack trigger reattaches an Equipment you already control to any attacking creature, so the swing itself doubles as the equip step, with no mana sunk into re-suiting up. Because the trigger resolves in the declare-attackers step, the move happens before blockers commit: you are not reacting to a chump-blocker, you are pre-loading your best attacker with the gear that matters and forcing the opponent to block into it. The self-referential Ward is the wrinkle worth sitting with, because it scales with the body doing the aggression. At a base 2/2 the tax is modest, but pile on the very Equipment this card exists to move and the power climbs, dragging the ward cost up with it: the more threatening it becomes, the more life an opponent must burn to point removal at it. That is an uncommon case of a defensive keyword growing along the same axis the card wins on, rather than sitting beside it as a flat number. The result is less a beater than a routing engine for gear, a red take on the equipment-shuffler role that usually lives in white, built so the combat step alone does the work two separate actions used to require.
