If Akshan dies with an originally enemy-owned Equipment on him, what happens to the Equipment?

When Akshan leaves the board while an enemy-owned piece of equipment is attached to him, the equipment becomes unequipped and control reverts to its original owner.

Sequence of Events:

1. Akshan Leaves Play: When Akshan is removed from the board, the control-change effect created by his triggered ability ("You control it until I leave the board") immediately ceases to apply.
2. Control Reverts: With the control-change effect gone, control of the equipment reverts to its original owner (the player who brought the card into the game).
3. Automatic Detachment: Because Akshan was the "Top-Most Card" to which the equipment was attached, his departure from the board causes the equipment to detach. Per Rule 435.4 and the principles described in RiftJudge FAQs #8714, #9395, and #657, the equipment ceases to be attached and is no longer being carried by a unit.
4. Recall: As an unattached piece of gear now present at a battlefield (or the base, depending on where Akshan was), the equipment is subject to recall. According to Rule 452.1 and Rule 149.3, any unattached gear at a battlefield is recalled to its controller's base during the next cleanup.

Key Distinction: It is critical to distinguish this from scenarios where the gear was moved to a different unit. As clarified in RiftJudge FAQs #8714 and #9395, the equipment only remains attached if it was moved to a different unit that is still on the board when Akshan dies. If the equipment remains attached to Akshan himself when he dies, it detaches and control reverts to the original owner immediately upon his departure.
