DARK/Beast-Type Effect/Level 6/1400 ATK/1600 DEF

 

Lore: Cannot be destroyed by battle with a Special Summoned monster. You can only use each of these effects of "Great Gate Deeg" once per turn.

• If your opponent controls no Normal Summoned monsters: You can Special Summon this card (from your hand.) 

• During the end of a Phase, if this card was Tributed: You can target 1 face-up monster on the field; Special Summon 1 monster from your hand or Deck in face-up Defense Position with the same Level and Attribute as that target, but with a different name.

 

 

 

Tribute Fodder. Need to use this image in a good card. Spitting in Bottomless Trap Hole's eye again. These reasons and more are what are behind GoodGameDawg's Great Gate Deeg's creation.

 

Anyways, review, revel, you know the drill, let's get to spelunking.

 

BDS, signing off.

 

*UPDATE: Fixed up GGD's errata and "once per turn" effects.

Your wording's a bit off:

 

Cannot be destroyed by battle against a Special Summoned monster.

 

I think it would be:

 

Cannot be destroyed by battle with a Special Summoned monster.

 

And:

During the end of a Phase, if this card was Tributed:

 

I think the fact that your opponent controls no Normal Summoned monsters is a sufficient enough Summoning condition (or even just the other one). While it's effect has potential, it is a bit specific as to what you could Summon, so it should be balanced.

Thanks. I've actually changed up the effects on Deeg as you've requested, but can you be a bit more specific on the balance-as in, should the Summoning effect be stronger or weaker?

Sure, it Summons from the Deck, but it has to be the same Type and Attribute, while having a different name. And in Defense Position. I think it's effect is fair as it is.
