Firion wants a deck that arms its creatures with weapons and armor. It also suits a deck that plays cheap creatures and attacks from the first turns.

Equipped creatures you control have haste.
Whenever a nontoken Equipment you control enters, create a token that's a copy of it, except it has "This Equipment's equip abilities cost less to activate." Sacrifice that token at the beginning of the next upkeep.
Picked for what they do in Firion's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Firion's color identity.Mana ValueThe total amount of mana a card costs, all added up. A card costing two generic and one green has a mana value of three. Wizards renamed this from "converted mana cost" in 2021, so older cards and articles may still use the old name.Open the full glossary

Most rulings are written by Wizards of the Coast, the company that makes Magic, and a few are notes from Scryfall, the card database Magic players use. A ruling explains a card. It does not change what the card says.Open the full glossary

If the copied Equipment has {X} in its mana cost, X is 0.

If the copied Equipment is copying something else, then the token enters as whatever that Equipment copied, with the listed exception.
Wizards of the Coast6 Jun 2025
If the Equipment copied by the token had any "when [this permanent] enters" abilities, the token also has those abilities, and they'll trigger when it's created. Similarly, any "as [this permanent] enters" or "[this permanent] enters with" abilities that the token has copied will also work.

The token copies exactly what was printed on the original Equipment, with the listed exception (unless that Equipment is copying something else; see below). It doesn't copy whether that Equipment is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or any Auras or Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its types, color, power and toughness, and so on.
Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryRPlayers write colors as letters: R for red.EquipmentEquipment decks attach artifacts called Equipment to their creatures to make them bigger and harder to stop. You pay a cost to equip each one, and it stays on the battlefield when the creature dies, ready to move to the next.Open the Equipment pageEquipment PayoffRewards you for casting or attaching Equipment: drawing cards, attaching for free, or attaching at instant speed. Puresteel Paladin, Sigarda's AidOpen the Equipment Payoff pageEquipmentAn artifact that attaches to one of your creatures and makes it stronger. You attach it by paying its equip cost, which you can only do during your own turn when nothing else is happening, so a new Equipment does nothing until you pay. It stays behind when the creature dies, and you pay the equip cost again each time you move it. SkullclampOpen the Equipment pageStatic BuffGives creatures a lasting bonus to power and toughness while it remains on the battlefield, rather than a boost that wears off at end of turn. Garruk's Uprising, Patchwork BannerOpen the Static Buff pageAggroAggro decks play cheap creatures early and attack every turn, trying to knock opponents out before their bigger plans come together.Open the Aggro pageHaste EnablerLets your creatures attack or use tap abilities the turn they arrive, instead of waiting out summoning sickness. Rhythm of the Wild, AngerOpen the Haste Enabler pageToken EngineMakes tokens again and again rather than once. A token is a creature or other permanent created by a card, with no card of its own. Something that makes one token gives you a body; something that makes them every turn gives you a board you can keep rebuilding after it is cleared. Grave Titan, Bitterblossom, OphiomancerOpen the Token Engine pageClonesClone decks copy the best creature on the battlefield, whoever owns it, so they always have one of the strongest things on the table. A copy also gets the original's 'when this enters' ability, so each clone can bring a fresh effect too.Open the Clones pageCloneCopies a creature or another permanent already on the battlefield. Copying the best thing on the table is often cheaper than casting something equally strong. Phyrexian Metamorph, Helm of the HostOpen the Clone pageToken MakerCreates one or more tokens. Different cards make very different ones: creatures Grave Titan, Treasures Smothering Tithe, Clues Tireless Tracker or Food Gilded Goose. This is one of our largest tags, so pair it with an archetype or theme when you are hunting a specific kind.Open the Token Maker pageEquipment / Hammer TimeEquipment, plus cards that attach it for free. That lets even Equipment with a huge equip cost, like Colossus Hammer, go to work right away.Open the Equipment / Hammer Time page
