Slagwurm Armor

Pure defense in Equipment form: no power boost, no evasion, no keyword, just a wall of toughness bolted onto whatever creature can hold it. The +0/+6 is enormous for the era it landed in, enough to brick most attackers and survive most burn, but the design pays for none of that with offense. A blocker wearing this stops chip damage indefinitely while contributing nothing to the clock. The friction is the equip tax: at three to attach (and only at sorcery speed), the armor is a slow commitment, useless as a reactive trick and easy to play around in any deck with bounce or removal aimed at the wearer. What makes the toughness-only equipment a recurring design experiment is the question of whether durability alone justifies a slot, and the answer here leans toward no for any deck trying to win rather than survive. It reads as a flavor-forward piece (creature dons hide, becomes hard to kill) more than a competitive tool, and it sits in the part of the Equipment design space that later cards mostly abandoned in favor of bonuses that also help close games.
