Fluffed Pillow

[Equip Spell]

 

During either player's turn: You can equip this card from your hand to a face-up monster on the field. The equipped monster cannot destroy monsters by battle, also it cannot be destroyed by battle. Neither player takes battle damage from attacks involving the equipped monster.

Not sure what kind of realistic applications this card would have nowadays, but guess you can use it to neuter a boss monster from doing any damage or something. Either that, or just use the equipped monster as an attack target and generate stuff for another effect, Think there were a couple cards that can do that, but no names are coming to mind.

Well, as an Equip Spell Card, you could search this out with Hidden Armory or Vylon Cube. As for what you would use it for, perhaps you could use it to stall for time. Either equip it to your monster to keep you from dying, or to an opponent's boss monster to keep it from hurting you. It's a cute card to bide time, and it's got an amusing name to boot. Reminds me of that scene from Yugioh Abridged episode 45, where he fluffs a pillow.

I have a doubt on the effect and possible conflicts with card rulings: by mechanics, Equip Spells have a Spell Speed of 1, and this card's clause effectively makes it a Spell Speed 2 effect. And while card text can overrule card rulings, an alternative with precedence is to make it a Trap that turn into an Equip Card, like Blast with Chain, but it would be missing Equip support.

 

Rulings aside, the effect is not really impressive IMO; destruction by battle is not as relevant anymore, and while it more or less outclasses Equips like Mist Body, IMO it still isn't good enough to consider it in decks, except for casual games. Really, its best application would be to equip it to an opponent's monster and prevent it from destroying your monsters by battle, but that wouldn't keep you safe for long.
