You can Ritual Summon this card with "Shadow of Dokurorider". You can banish up to 4 Zombie monsters from your GY: Banish the same number of cards from your opponent's GY, face-down, and if you do, if you banish exactly 4 cards with the same word(s) in their names this way; draw 2 cards. This card cannot attack the turn you activate this effect. You can only use this effect of "Shadow Dokurorider" once per turn.

This card is used to Ritual Summon any Zombie Ritual Monster. You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equals or exceeds the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon. When "Shadow Dokurorider" is Ritual Summoned with this effect: You can banish this card from your GY, then return 2 of your banished Zombie monsters to the GY; draw 1 card.
 
 
B4 you say it, yes they are similarly names I couldn't think of anything else to call them. This is technically a better version of the old school Ritual Monster Dokurorider, with the same attack, 0 DEF (for those Shiranui monsters), and an effect. The effect is very simplistic, banish up to 4 Zombies from your GY, then banish the same number of cards from your opponent's GY but face-down, and if you banish 4 of your opponent's cards that are in the same Archetype, you get to draw 2 cards however no matter what this monster can't attack that turn. Its Ritual Spell can be used for ANY zombie Ritual (Vendread's will LOVE this to no end) but if you use that Ritual Spell for Shadow Dokurorider, you get to return 2 of your banished zombies to the GY, and draw 1 card, then combo that off of Shadow Dokurorider so you can draw 2 more cards. This card can be used to drastically improve any well-built Zombie Deck and completely synergizes with almost all zombie archetypes; its Level 4 so you could use any Level 4 zombie, its effect banishes zombies from the GY and draws cards which can create huge plays with Shiranui, and its Ritual Spell can Ritual Summon any Zombie Ritual you want, and we're assuming the Vendreads will be a heavily Ritual focused zombie Archetype.

Well, this is pretty solid. The idea of retrain Dokurorider is pretty cool, especially with all the Fiend Bike monsters (you could probably adapt those too)

 

I would change the effect of Shadow to draw cards if it banishes 2-3 or more monsters with the same word, but either way a draw 2 at that caliber for zombies might not be necessary.

 

You could probably get away with making it a Revendread monster. "Revendread Dokurorider" doesn't sound that bad at all, and it would help Revendread become actually good.

 

Really like the Ritual Spell, just wish the banish effect wasn't on its Summon since then you could recycle the cards you banish with the ritual's effect.

This is quite cool. I really like that it rewards you with card draws for going after archetype cards with its banish effect, the artworks are nice, and being searchable by both Preparation Spells is a welcomed plus.

Not sure if it would break anything, but you could make the monster's effect a quick effect for disrupting revival effects, etc., and/or allow the Ritual Spell to mill up to 1 Zombie for the Ritual Summon; that way it would make these cards more or less double as a Foolish Burial for Zombies, and milling Zombies is their bread and butter.

I was mostly thinking about Shiranui (the only actual zombie Archetype we have until vendreads get more support), its effect doesn't have to be a Quick Effect, banish your Shiranui monsters and chain their effects like Samurai and Solitaire, then like I said pull of a huge combo whereas you Synchro Summon, Xyz Summon, or Link Summon some monsters and you're good to go.

Then that means that it would be so much better as a Quick Effect: you could banish Shiranui Spiritmaster to destroy a card during the opponent's turn, disrupting his/her plays similar to how Drident does. That would help when you don't have 4+ Zombies in the grave that you mind banishing. But again, IDK if it would break the card.

I think it would and that's not what I want for it
