Can somebody please explain this concept in layman's terms?  I'm not sure how to equip it to another creature other than the dumb germ

BadLuckIrish

{Sickleslicer} when u cast this u get a 0/0 black germ token and u eqiup the living to it immediantly. Then its a regular equipment and once u equip it to something else the germ dies

TJKoer

You pay the equip cost of the equipment and put it where you want it to go.

What those two said. It's a kind of odd and roundabout way of getting a creature on the board right away.  So you play {sickle slicer} or {flayer husk}, get your 1/1 or 2/2 body now, and then move that bonus onto other creatures later.

*psst* Use it with {Intangible Virtue} or better yet {Essence of the Wild}.  ;)

Essence Of the wild would make the germ 6/6 right?  Plus whatever the equipment is?

Essence of the wild + Gravecrawler. Can you keep bringing back a 6/6 so long as there is a zombie under your control?

BadLuckIrish

Yes when {Gravecrawler} dies he turns back into him. Then u cast him and he becomes a 6/6 again

Eh. {Thraben Doomsayer} would be better. The humans would become 6/6 when they enter

I made a deck and put it up here with living weapons and the essence guy.
I've tested it a few times on cockatrice vs my other decks. It looks like it would work but for the price of all the cards, I decided against investing just yet.
The deck is called "it moves on its own!" under standard.

If you were going for straight 6/6 token gen, then all you would need is 4 of the essence guy, probably something to help you get him out earlier. And straight token gen cards. {gather the townsfolk} {lingering souls} etc. your limit would be casting colour and what format you wanted to play in.
Also as far as tokens go, they survive against a enter and sac {ratchet bomb} as they all have a mana cost of 6 being copies! :)
