Deck Description

I've always wanted to make an equipment deck, but I don't have the money to get into Legacy. This is an attempt to make an equipment deck that's competitive in modern. The goal is to synergize with equipment without depending too heavily on them.

I'm still working to put it together IRL, so we'll see how it goes.

How to Play

TL;DR: Play knights, equip, swing

Mainboard
====================

## Puresteel Paladin
This guy maximizes your gain from playing artifacts, giving you extra draws and increasing the utility of your equipments.

## Mirran Crusader, Etched Champion, Indomitable Archangel
These are your strikers, all with solid evasion to abuse equipment. The Crusader abuses Swords with double strike. Protection on the Champion makes it both a great attacker and blocker, a perfect target for the Shield. The Archangel has a big body with wings making it a great finisher.

## Knight Exemplar, Indomitable Archangel
These guys provide a lot of defense utility. The Exemplar keeps your other knights alive, and the Archangel protects your equipment. Remember to equip Etched Champion before playing the Archangel.

## Darksteel Citadel, Mox Opal, Accorder's Shield
These 0 mana cost artifacts let you gain metalcraft in a hurry.

## Accorder's Shield, Cranial Plating, Swords of X and Y
The equipment are the main tactical tools. The Shield on the Paladin and the Exemplar protects the synergy. The swords are especially good on the Crusader.

## Steelshaper's GIft
Lets you tutor Equipment. In the early game, it's a good idea to nab a Shield to help get metalcraft and protect your creatures. In the late game, choose a sword that provides relevant protection.

## Brave the Elements, Dispatch
Use these defensively to slow down the game as you buff your creatures.


Sideboard
====================

## Ethersworn Canonist
Shuts down storm decks and other combos

## Dryad Militant
Helps with Snapcaster and Tarmagoyf

## Kor Firewalker
Say no to burn

## Rest in Peace
Stops Tarmagoyf, reanimater, and delve
