Auriok Windwalker puts any Equipment from your hand directly onto a creature — no equip cost, no waiting — which on a 2/3 flying body at four mana is a real tempo swing. The ceiling is pairing it with something like Medomai the Ageless, where landing a Swiftfoot Boots or Shadowspear mid-combat changes the entire game state.

Auriok Windwalker is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but it only earns a slot in one of them. In Commander, Equipment-matters decks — Nazahn, Revered Bladesmith, Sram, Senior Edificer, Galea, Kindler of Hope — run it as a redundant vector for getting gear onto creatures without paying equip costs, which matters enormously when you're suiting up a commander with shroud or hexproof. In Legacy, Modern, and Vintage, a four-mana 2/3 with a conditional activated ability has never been close to competitive, and nothing in the current metagame changes that calculus.

Current price
$0.57 bulk tier
At $0.57, Auriok Windwalker is deep bulk — you'll find it in a bargain bin before you'd ever need to order it. Given how narrow its home is, that price is unlikely to move meaningfully in either direction.
