Relic Seeker
A tutor with a clock attached, and the clock runs the wrong way for the player who wants to sit back. The Equipment search never fires on cast: it waits behind the first connection, so the 2/2 has to swing, survive, and land a hit before it grows to a 3/3 and pulls any Equipment straight to hand. That conditional structure keeps the rate honest. An unconditional two-mana Equipment tutor stapled to a body would be far above the curve; gating the fetch behind combat math means the payoff arrives a turn late, and only against an opponent who declines to trade into the early attack. The design logic underneath is tidy. An Equipment shell wants a cheap, white-aligned creature that both carries a weapon and finds one, and a body eager to attack in the first place happens to be the ideal candidate to hold the sword it fetches. The renown counter and the retrieved gear compound: a bigger body plus a buff-granting weapon turns the next attack step into a faster kill, which shortens the same combat that powered the tutor. Outside a deck built around what the fetch delivers, the second ability is dead text, and that is the trade the design accepts. This is a build-around enabler, not a standalone threat; the fetched card is meant to matter more than the creature that fetched it.
