Can you equip at instant speed in MTG?
Sure can't. It's a sorcery-speed action unless you've got a card that says otherwise. Magic is all about those exceptions!

Nah, you can't normally equip at instant speed in Magic The Gathering. Equipping is an action you usually take on your turn during one of your main phases when the stack is empty. BUT, and it's a big but, there are some cards or abilities out there that can let you bend the rules. Look out for cards like \
Big nope unless you've got a sneaky card up your sleeve. I once lost a match cuz my opponent whipped out a Leonin Shikari. Turns out, if you have it on the field, you can equip whenever the heck you want. So, exceptions exist, but generally, stick to doing it on your turn, not in the middle of combat or in response to spells.
