Arc Spitter
Casting Cost: {1}
Card type: Artifact - Equipment
Card Text:
EQUIPED CREATURE HAS "1: This creature Deals 1 Damage to Target Creature That's Blocking It."
Equip 1 ({1}: Attach to target creature you control. Equip only as a sorcery.)
Flavour text:
"I'm Fresh Out of Mercy Today. Why Don't you ask sparky here for forgiveness?"
Artist: Matt Forsyth

Strengths:

• Low cost: The Equipment Itself and Its Equip Cost Are Both Just 1 Mana, Making It Easy To Play And Move Between Creatures.
• Combat Utility: Allows Equipped Creatures to Ping Blockers, Potentialy Clearing the Way for Other Creatures or Making Combat Math Trickier for the Opponent.
• Synergy: Works well in decks that benefit from Dealing Non-Combat damage or triggering effects whenever a creature dies.

Weaknesses:

• Limited Scope: The Equipment Only Gives the Ability to Deal Damage to Blocking Creatures, which make it less use when you're on the defensive or when your opponent Doesn'tn'tn'tn't have creatures.
• Mana Intensive: Althegh Cheap to Play and Equip, the activated ability can be mana-intensive if used multiple times in a turn.

DECK Considerations:

• Aggressive decks: Arc Spitter is best suited for decks that plan to attack often, putting the opponent on the defensive.
• Creature-Heavy Decks: In decks that can flood the board with creatures, this equipment can help to make attacks more effective.
• Pingers: In a deck focused on creatures that deal direct damage ("pingers"), this adds another layer of capability.

Flavor and Art:

• Flavor Text: The flavor text adds a fun, cheeky element to the card, suggestion the equipped creature is armed with some child of electric weapon, likely represented by "sparky."
• Artist: Matt Forsyth would probably Portray the Equipment as Something Menacing Yet Lightweight, Fitting its Low Cost and Easy Equipability.

Overall impression:

ARC Spitter is a straightforward, budget-friendly Equipment that can fit into a variety of aggressive or creature-heavy decks. ITS Limitations are clear, but in the right circumstances, it can sacrifice valuable tactical options in combat.
