Blazing Torch — Guide the Night
Blazing Torch is a one mana Artifact Equipment that does exactly what its name implies. Equip it for a low cost and it gives the bearer a small removal option and a narrow evasive edge; the equipped creature cannot be blocked by Vampires or Zombies, and you can tap and sacrifice the torch to deal two damage to any target. That combination makes the card tidy in tempo builds that need cheap interaction and reliable reach on Innistrad's creature-heavy board states.
In play the foil treatment highlights the torch's flame and the torchbearer standing against a bleak skyline, which is useful when you want a compact piece of utility that also fits the set's Gothic feel. Blazing Torch is straightforward in deck construction: cheap equip, situational evasion, and a one-time ping that can finish off a blocker or help close out a creature or planeswalker. Consider it for aggressive artifact shells, token lists, or sideboards that want a cheap interaction that doubles as combat economics.
