Scavenged Blade

Most equipment splits its investment across two payments: the mana cost to cast it, then a separate equip cost to actually strap it onto something, which usually leaves a dead turn between the two. This one folds the first attach into casting; it enters and immediately bolts onto a creature, so two mana buys +2/+0 on the spot with no follow-up. That collapses it into something between an Aura and a proper Equipment, a pump spell that happens to persist as a permanent. The wrinkle sits in the reattach cost, which runs steeper than the initial deployment: relocating the blade after its host dies asks for more than you spent casting it. That asymmetry is what shapes how the card wants to be played. Cheap to land, expensive to move, it should be cast onto a creature you intend to protect and left there, not shuttled across a board of expendable attackers the way a bargain equip cost invites. Equipment that gets ferried between bodies rewards a wide, disposable board; this rewards a durable one. The bonus is modest and purely offensive (no toughness, no evasion, no keyword), so it lives or dies on the assumption that the creature it lands on is worth doubling down on. That is a narrower design than the flexible-toolbox equipment reputation suggests: it is built to commit, not to hedge.
