Leonidas' Reach
The Spear of Leonidas is a compact, high impact red artifact that rewards aggressive pilots who like choices. For {2}{R} you get an Equipment that pushes attacks into meaningful outcomes. Whenever the equipped creature attacks you select one of three modes, so each combat step becomes a decision point: push through with double strike, replace a blocker with a 3/2 legendary Horse named Phobos, or dig for answers by discarding and drawing two cards. Equip 2 makes it easy to deploy on a 2 power attacker and start generating value immediately.
As a card from Universes Beyond Assassin's Creed it blends tight combat upgrades with franchise flavor. The Spear of Leonidas fits cleanly into red aggro lists or equipment decks that want tempo plus a situational card advantage line. Experienced players will like how the modes let you sequence for lethal, stall breakers, or hand filtering without overcommitting mana. Add it to your deck when you need a flexible threat that converts attacks into tangible advantage.
