DECK Considerations:

• Equipment Synergies: This card would be at home in an Equipment-Focused deck, where its conditional ability can asily be with.
• VOLTRON DECKS: In a deck designed to stack Equipment and other bonuses on a single creature ("Voltron" strategy), this card would be a good fit.
• Artifact Synergies: As an artifact, it has synergies with cards that care about artifacts, potentially fitting into an artifact-themed deck.

Flavor and Art:

• Flavor: Brass Knuckles Seems Like It would give a Gritty, Street-Fighting Edge to Any Creature Lucky Enough to Be Equipped with It.
• Artist: Given Yeong-Hao Han's Previous Work, The Art would Likely Emphasize The Power and Danger of these Brass Knuckles, Perhaps Showing Theme in Action or As A Detailed Close-Up.

Overall impression:

Brass Knuckles sacrifices an intriguing design space, coupling a self-duplicating ability with a conditional but powerful combat ability. While it requires a bit of setup to fully utilize, in the right deck it could be Become a Formidable Force. The Low Equip Cost also adds Flexibility, Allowing for Tactical Reassignment of Equipment Turning the Game.
