Okay so only being able to summon light and dark attribute monsters isn't that big of a draw back seeing as light and dark monsters have had the strongest monsters for a long while. Secondly, adding one another to the hand isn't that broken , until you see their scales. A range of 2-9 for levels is a pretty big range for such a quick add. Clearly designed for chaos decks with the banishing as well. Their tribute and pendulum effects are fine though, as although they seem weird, I don't find them broken.

Looking at where this is going now, I can easily say there is not a ton of abuse with this. Although the DARK Pendulum is searchable by Odd Eyes, it seems like it would take a really weird deck to put it onto full scale abusable. MAYBE DDD decks, but that's pushing it since they don't actually require Pendulums aside from Leonidas or if you are trying to OTK with Kaiser. Even then, the search effect is a complete turn off since you can't use it in there.The fact that these are legit Level 9 monsters that doesn't require something weird I actually dig since that leaves for a Rank 9 engine, the first that would ever exist. I would put this more as interesting and surely is something that would be something to experiment with. Chaos Dragons I wouldn't see having room, Chaos Control..... eh, maybe that Chaos deck implied by the new Gaia monsters? I'm not sure what to think really. It's like Pendulum Scraps. It sounds good on paper, but then you think "Where do I go from here?"

Kind of where I was heading. The effects are not actually too broken. The pendulum scales are a little insane but after checking most of the "chaos" monsters require special requirements to be special summoned. So it isn't like you could just spam the field full of power house dark/light monsters.

I could actually see these being released as-is in the final quarter of the Pendulum Era. Pendulum Chaos as the Arc-V Final Boss's Deck, making FULL advantage out of those scales.

 

Some notable cards this pair can Summon are:

 

  1. Dark Simorgh
  2. Dark Horus
  3. Emes the Infinity
  4. Everything Lightsworn
  5. Plaguespreader Zombie
  6. Destiny Hero Malicious you drew with no Destiny Draw.
  7. Everything in the Photon/Galaxy dual Archetype except Photon Satellite
  8. Constellars
  9. tellarknights
  10. (Proto) Cyber Dragons

and finally, when he finally gets off the banlist (it's been stated no card is forever banned)

 

    11. Dark Magician of Swag Chaos

 

 

Also, these can Pendulum Summon anything with with the X-Eyes Y Dragon name scheme, except Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, which is Special Summoned by tributing Red-Eyes B. Dragon, which these CAN Summon.
