Winged Boots

Two cheap functions bolted onto one Equipment, and the combination is sharper than either half. Flying turns an evasion-light board into a clock, but the ward is the part doing the structural work: it reframes the Equipment as protection rather than just a stat boost. Most evasion-granting Equipment leaves the carrier exposed to spot removal the moment it matters; here, an opponent who wants to kill or bounce your chosen attacker has to pay a four-mana tax on top of whatever the answer already costs. That tax is steep enough to blank cheap removal entirely and to make midrange interaction a losing trade on tempo. The equip cost of keeps the whole package mobile, so the boots can chase whichever creature is currently the threat, peeling protection off a spent body and reattaching it to a fresh one for next to nothing. It is a quiet design lesson in how ward changes the math of a "give my guy evasion" effect: the evasion sells the aggression, and the ward is what keeps the aggression from getting answered the turn it lands.
