IDEA:
Waterzx
NOTES:
In case you don't know what I mean, when you use this card, you can choose to give your opponent a weapon or shield. If you give out a weapon, you gain opponent's shield. If you give out a shield, you gain opponent's weapon.

Uses :

1. Replace opponent's weapon or shield with a crap. For example, replaces the Eternity with a dagger

2. "Sacrifice" useless equipment. For example, give out a shield and gain opponent's Titan. More importantly, you can always give your opponent a 1-turn dimensional shield, and your opponent would lose his original shield and the weapon.

Suggestion: Weapon to weapon, Shield to shield.
Weapon-shield and vice versa don't seem to be ... what should I call it ... equivalent?

Interesting concept. If opponent has an immaterial weapon or shield, does it still get switched? What if yours is immaterial, can you still target it?
Other than that I think this is a pretty cool card... maybe we'll start seeing daggers and short sword get more use.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`

Since I have left this game for some time, I forgot there are immaterial permanents.

In this case, I think you won't be able to target your immaterial shield or weapon, but the second phase of the effect (getting opponent's equipment ) does not involve targeting, so this card can help you take down opponent's immaterial permanent.

Suggestion: Weapon to weapon, Shield to shield.
Weapon-shield and vice versa don't seem to be ... what should I call it ... equivalent?
I don't think that would be a good idea. In your case of equivalent exchange, you always need a crappy equipment to make this card beneficial to yourself. In the current version, you can switch weapons / shields according your own needs with greater flexibility ( e.g. give your opponent a weapon while getting a dim. shield from him)

Building on ^, does it keep protected status if switched?
It is the greatest mystery of all...

Q. How does this thematically fit  :entropy?
The only theme I really see is some sort of equivlent exchange, like bartering or something, and is inherently lawful, not chaotic. As such, it seems more like a  :gravity card to me.
