If you're looking for a fun go-wide Equipment deck, I'd highly recommend the Final Fantasy VII precon
Sometimes this is done during the upkeep, or in response to card draw, in case your opponent draws a split second card (say, Krosan Grip for your Icy Manipulator), countermagic, or an untargetability effect, but in general it's best to wait until the last moment

Terras Mardu deck thrives on graveyard recursion, letting you resurrect beloved creatures turn after turn, while Clouds Naya build equips your troops with power boosts that break the board wide open
Some decks will still prefer the 1-drop, but this has combat stats, sacs artifacts, and surveils instead of scrying, which is all major upsides on a free sac outlet
