As many even numbers as possible to convey "multiple arms" flavour.

I like it, but it doesn't need trample. Nothing about Octopus arms screams trample to me... it just makes the equipment more powerful. The creature equipped by this already has an evasion ability that's apropriate the the card, anyway.

I can't not think of Dr. Octopus when I envision this thing.

I agree, Octopi aren't known for running (slithering/tentacling?) over the top of things but for getting up close and grappling. I think the crad would be fine without trample - PLUS it would fit your design aesthetic as right now the creature gets 5 things from this equipment, lose trample and you have another even number.
