I think the baseline effects would still be like those of current equipment… which would effectively turn all creatures into Frozen Shades or lands into Blessings… which wouldn’t probably be great. Add some man-lands and now you’ve got a wrath-proof fire breather. As we’ve seen with commander products (and discussed in other threads) they would likely make them everything-bagels, with both an effect and a payoff, that works off of having a creature of your own to target. I don’t want to fight too hard for this, and give the impression that I think we need them, but “equipment for lands” strikes me a very doable and potentially quite flavorful. I loved Farmstead and Caribou Range, so why not make more survivable reusable versions as equipment? It seems in-line with the power creep curve and the general themes you could introduce would contribute positively to the situational feel of games (like the rooms from duskmourn).

Great idea!

Liliana definitely gives me some pretty big Yennefer vibes. Maybe a few copies of her would be good? Liliana, Heretical Healer  Flip and Liliana of the Veil could work.

The Gitrog Monster could work well as the Ofiri prince in the sewers of Oxenfurt from the HoS DLC.

Necrophages are pretty easy to find in Black. I'm thinking of the new art on Carrion Feeder would work well, so would Phyrexian Ghoul. Wraiths of all kind are also pretty easy to find. Frozen Shade from 5th Edition, Chilling Shade, Liliana's Shade and Nightwing Shade all seem like good options.

Higher Vampires are also pretty easy, you can take your pick from tons of options. Maybe you could put in some legendary vampires that could represent Detlaff and Regis? Maybe Baron Sengir and Crovax the Cursed? Shauku, Endbringer looks like an Alp or Bruxa.

You need a horse and a boat! Sleek Schooner looks about right. There are a surprising amount of horses in Black and Green, the best of which are Nightmare, Timbermare and Vine Mare. Roach looks a bit more like Dusk Charger (minus the red eyes).

The Wild Hunt and the White Frost could be represented by a Snow subtheme. A handful of snow basics, Boreal Druid and Rimebound Dead could be a decent start, along with a few more things like Dead of Winter.

I'll give this some more thought later. Hopefully this gave you some ideas you like!

This list looks fantastic if you somehow mashed up 93/94 and Pauper into a format XD

I don't know if you're looking for suggestions or just appreciating an older list, but there's some cards that have strictly better conversions. Looming Shade is strictly better than Frozen Shade, and Consume Spirit is strictly better than Drain Life.
