Equip Cards usually have beneficial effects applied to the equipped monster. Equip Cards can also be equipped to opponents' monsters to abuse the effect in some way, such as equipping your enemy's "[[Dark Magician]]" with "[[Big Bang Shot]]" and Setting a monster with low [[DEF]]. When the "Dark Magician" attacks, your opponent suffers the battle damage due to the wording on "Big Bang Shot". Note that while the monster who receives the benefit can be your opponent's, you are still the owner of the Equip Card, and thus any references to "you" still means the owner of the Equip Card itself, not the owner of the equipped monster.
Some [[Trap Card]]s, like "[[Blast with Chain]]", can also become Equip Cards. These cards are considered Equip Cards but are not [[Equip Spell Card]]s. This means that it is a [[Trap Card]] (and could be [[destroy]]ed by "[[Remove Trap]]") and an Equip Card (for purposes such as "[[Gearfried the Swordmaster]]"). It is not a [[Spell Card]], and cannot be [[destroy]]ed by "[[De-Spell]]". We can call this kind This type of Trap may be thought of as an "Equip Trap Card" in a greater an abstract sense, although but this is not an official designationterm.
