It's been a long time since I've looked at Gishkis but this looks like pretty solid support for them whilst also sticking to their general theme of hand and deck shenanigans. I'm a little concerned about your infinitely recycling trap at the end their though. Maybe make it so you banish it from the grave instead of decking it?

Thanks for the review! On the matter of the Trap, I was worried that it would be too weak since it only protects Ritual Monsters and nothing more, but banishing might be ok if I add an extra effect. Will edit.

Perhaps make it so it's any "Gishki" monster it can protect but give it a second clause that lets you activate it from the hand if the monster targeted is a Ritual Monster?

Well, I was trying to make it and Aquamirror Gate at least runnable in non-Gishki Ritual decks... I have edited it with a 2nd eff that protects "Gishki" Ritual Spells as well.
