Candlestick: Light and Lead
Candlestick is a compact utility piece for blue decks that need incremental advantage and a steady stream of options. It functions as both a Clue and Equipment so it plugs into sacrifice synergies and clue loops while also improving a creature on board. The equipped creature gets a modest +1/+1 and gains a triggered surveil effect that triggers each time it attacks, which helps you sculpt draws and fuel graveyard interactions without overcommitting mana.
Use the second ability as a tidy tidy draw engine when you can spare two mana and a sacrifice. Equip two offers a low cost to move the buff and surveil to the creature doing the work. In limited play this card smooths out hand quality. In constructed builds it slots into control or tempo lists that want repeatable card selection and a disposable artifact to fuel other synergies.
