Equip

Equip is a keyword ability found on artifacts with the subtype "Equipment". By paying the equip cost, you can attach the artifact to a creature you control, which is referred to in the text as the "equipped creature".
==Description==
Equipping can only be activated at sorcery speed. When an equipped creature leaves the battlefield, unlike Auras, the equipment remains on the battlefield. 
The first cards with equip appeared in Mirrodin. It was so flavorful and so popular, that it went evergreen immediately. Ninth Edition was the first core set to feature the keyword.
While most equipment designs modify equip timing, costs, and "resting" state, Streets of New Capenna brings a new equip form of "equip Planeswalker" that acts uniquely within the rules.
<c>Cryptic Coat</c> uniquely is an equipment that has no activated equipping ability, using a self-bounce activated ability to re-cloak and equip with a triggered ability. Its equipped ability, while potent, is less powerful than its repeated ability to cloak.
<c>The Aetherspark</c>, the first Equipment Planeswalker, has many firsts. It has no "Equip" ability but instead has a loyalty ability that attaches it.

====Equip planeswalker====
 from Streets of New Capenna use a noncreature permanent as the quality. The rules only qualify what happens with equipping this particular type, in that the planeswalker can be targeted and attached with Luxior's ability as though it was a creature. Luxior's second static ability will then change the planeswalker to a creature, allowing it to remain equipped.
