The left part of the card says when this creature enters the battlefield and then you execute the ETB effect on the right
To which I say: who cares
The equip ability on its own, without outside help from cards like Leonin Shikari, cannot be activated at instant speed, so if you play an Artificers Hex on an equipment thats already attached to a creature, they will not be able to remove that equipment before they are in their main phase, guaranteeing you a dead creature
Ellie and Alan, Paleontologists Its really cool this legendary creature represents Ellie Sattler, as played by Laura Dern, and Alan Grant, as played by Sam Neil
[14] She later falls in love with Wakka, [15] and helps Yuna destroy Sin
Theres a stark contrast between having this commander be your finisher (encouraging cheating in large single enchantments) and something like Sythis, despite both being very close in theme
