It will be interesting to see what people do with little Sancho here.
He makes several horrible equipment cards at least playable in casual games. Like Heartseeker.
Now who can I find to represent Don Quixote de la Mancha?...
edit: Pay the equip cost to put an accorder's shield on him the turn after he comes out. Then after he attacks, tap him to equip that ogre's cleaver you cast earlier. Suddenly Sancho's a 6/6 swinging on turn 4.

Enabled me to play and equip Argentum Armor in the same turn several times at the pre-release and shifting things like protection from X and first strike around at instant speed are great in limited and potentially have applications in constructed.
He has to compete with the Kor Outfitter, but repeatability and fast effects possibly make him worth the extra cost and further delay from it being an activated rather than triggered effect plus vulnerability from being an artifact...maybe, in the right deck...
Too bad he isn't a knight.

I would buy a plush of this thing. It's so huggable and adorable.

Way too cute for the amount of kicking a$$ he does.

Interesting card. There's a reason equipment can only be used as a sorcery.

The Phyrexians'll be so busy thinking how adorable he is that they won't notice the giant weapon that's gonna be used to kill them.

SO GOOD. I, too got this guy and Argentum Armor at the prerelease. I also got Piston Sledge, which is kinda painful to equip without the squire. Moving equipment around for free at instant speed is great.

The pre-release are mostly won with equipments, and this dude works well with the Piston Sledge Hammer.
