Not necessarily "much" worse. Being able to deal with big trackers/Gitrog/etc is a real gain, destroying enchantments is way better than sacrificing in Standard, and +1/+1 to team is better than +1/+1 to a creature.

Not as flexible, but it can do more and 2/3 of the abilities are more powerful than their Dromoka's counterpart

Whenever an Equipment enters the battlefield under your control, you may attach it to target creature you control.

I like Wonkos up north; wide range of people (groups of teenagers, 20-somethings, up through a few regular 40-somethings).

Though really the best place is Card Traders (age group 25 - 40-ish).

I think it'd come pretty close to too good if it cantripped - this is a card that might find a deck without replacing itself, and will probably be very good in that deck if it does.

Also, this plus the classic combo of Seismic Assault + Swans of Bryn Argoll. Or this plus Countryside Crusher. Or this plus Knight of the Reliquary. It combos with a lot of cards that are already good in Modern.

I spent $80 tonight on a blue/white artifact deck. It beat my friends scary white/red deck and I'm super happy with it. One of the artifacts gains protection against all colours when there are 3 or more artifacts on the field! Its crazy! Especially considering a whole bunch of my lands are also artifacts, ahahha.

A lot of auras should become a lot more playable if they turn into combat tricks with upside instead of straight 2-for-1s waiting to happen.

This feels like a card that gets a lot better outside of standard, though.

Combat tricks already aren't playable outside of very specific decks (and those decks don't typically use them for the purpose of winning combats), and a two-card combo that gives you a slightly better combat trick is really unexciting.

If there's any room for abuse it'll be with powerful equipment that's really cheap to play but expensive to equip, or something like that.

Yeah, like I said, I feel like this card will do more outside of standard where there are better tools for it to support. Right now there aren't any equipment pieces that are good or expensive enough to justify running a support card for them.

It doesn't help that like half the equipment in standard have "When equipped creature attacks" triggers, which don't really combo with Flash at all.

In this case, it's mono-white for pragmatic reasons - no one would seriously consder playing a mono-blue or blue-white Auras and Equipment matter card, and it's not actually out of White's design space in the slightest.

Back in Mirrodin days I had an affinity deck, didn't have any ravagers but made do with Atog and Disciple of the Vault. Its fun to drop a disciple and an atog, sacrifice everything and just win. Also living the Ornithopter - cranial plating dream.

Edit: checked Bestow's wording, it is cast "as an aura spell" so should work.
