Ok for your opponents
- Lignify
- Kasmina's Transmutation
- Ichthyomorphosis
- Fowl Play if your playgroup allows it
- Deep Freeze
- Reprobation
- Imprisoned in the Moon
- Kenrith's Transformation
- One with the Stars
- Mystic Subdual
- Darksteel Mutation
- Song of the Dryads
So there are a series of cards from Stronghold, Exodus, and Tempest. They are creatures that transform into auras and can transform back to creatures. And they also fit the "jank" this deck has.

There's something else weird that goes on during this process but thankfully it doesn't interfere with what you're trying to do. The copy effect of Mirage Mirror is applied in Layer 1, but the type-changing effect of Leeching Licid's activated ability is applied in Layer 4. Mairsil is an Enchantment - Aura copy of Worldslayer instead of an Artifact - Equipment, but that's okay because
301.5e An ability of a permanent that refers to the "equipped creature" refers to whatever creature that permanent is attached to, even if the permanent with the ability isn't an Equipment
Yes, Mairsil will remain attached and is considered equipped to the creature. When the copy effect wears off we reevaluate the effects being applied to Mairsil's characteristics and see that it's still supposed to be an Enchantment - Aura (it doesn't have the Licid type because that's a creature subtype, not an enchantment subtype).
The special action to change back into a creature isn't an activated ability, but you can still do it here because it's part of the effect established by the resolution of the activated ability. The current Oracle text for Leeching Licid makes this more clear.

So, I realize this may be a bit of a long shot, but assume a board state including:
Mairsil, the Pretender, having caged among other things a Leeching Licid and a Mirage Mirror
A Worldslayer on the battlefield
An attacking creature
If I use Mairsil, the Pretender's copy of the Leeching Licid's ability to attach him as an aura enchantment to the attacking creature, then activate the copy of Mirage Mirror's ability targeting Worldslayer:
1: Will Mairsil remain attached to the attacking creature?
2: Will he be considered equipped to the creature?
3: Upon Mirage Mirror wearing off, will Mairsil revert to being a creature or a licid aura enchantment?
Related supporting question: Is a licid-aura's special action to pay to revert to being a creature considered an activated ability?
