how does the card {assault suit} work? Do you equip your creature, then that creature can't attack everyone you doesn't have it? Or do you equip their creature then that can't attack you?

You equip your creature a 1/1 infect elf that's indestructible.

Each upkeep an opponent has, you may pass it to them to encourage swinging at another player as it cannot attack you.

Then during the next players upkeep, you can choose to pass that creature to another player.

during the second opponents upkeep, I think you who control the equip still choose to move it, not the last opponent, correct?

Remember, you can't equip an oppenent's creature with equipment.

Yeah this one took someone to explain to me too...but it is a pretty cool idea for multiplayer games....once I understood it

^ you can't equip a creature you don't control. If I equip my opponents commander with {lightning greaves} after gaining control of it, when it goes back to them it's still has shroud and haste..correct?
Yes, but you still control the equipment, you can move it.

Ah yes, I thought I might say that wrong. Can't equip creature you don't control...that's better clarified, thank you!

Great way to ditch creatures for a Zedru deck
Equip it with suit
Donate it
Unequip suit

Assuming you have something like {Lionin Shikari}.  Here's how Assault Suit works: You equip it to a creature you control.  On an opponent's Upkeep, you have the choice to scoot it over to that player, but you keep control of the equipment.  If they choose to attack with it, they can't attack you or a planeswalker you control, because you still control the Suit.  At the end of the turn, during the Clean-Up step, you regain control of your creature, since the control effect lasts until end of turn.  If the next turn is also an opponent's, the process repeats.  Just remember you get it back, however briefly, at the end of each turn.

The suit makes your creature into a mercenary that is loyal to you alone.  So in a 4 person game, your ulamog with this suit could swing each turn and all against your opponents.  Just careful for the decks running {restoration angel} effects ;)

So I can equip my biggest baddest creature, and then get everyone else to kill themselves with it? That's awesome! thanks for the clarification everyone!
