Red Mage's Rapier

Most cheap Equipment sits idle at the moment it resolves, waiting on a body to justify the cast. This one arrives pre-wielded: the Job select trigger conjures a token bearer and attaches the rapier in the same breath, so the two-drop starts as a functional attacker rather than a durdle on the stack. The token is small, but the sword rewrites what that body is for. Every noncreature spell fires a temporary +2/+0, and the wielder gains the Wizard type, quietly threading it into any spells-matter shell that keys off that line. The equip cost is the lever the design turns on. Reassigning the buff is deliberately expensive, so the incentive points inward, toward developing the bearer the rapier made rather than shuffling the weapon around the board turn after turn. That pins the payoff to the specific creature it created instead of treating the sword as a mobile threat. Because the pump resets each turn and stacks per spell, the reward is bursty rather than cumulative: the game-swinging turn is the one where a chain of cheap instants and sorceries inflates a modest body into a lopsided attacker, not a slow accrual of permanent stats. It reads as a spells-matter engine dressed as an aggressive weapon, and it only earns its slot in a deck built to pour noncreature spells through it.
