Megido (FIRE remove from play archetype)

[Ririkun]

It's an all FIRE Archetype that relies on having "Megido" monsters being removed from play to activate their effects or as a condition to Summon them, so I can bet It works especially well with Dimensional Fissure, Macro Cosmos and Dimensional Alchemist. All the cards are removed from play instead of being sent to the graveyard. Enjoy and leave comments.

The problem I see with these is that, since they all auto-remove upon being sent to the Graveyard, they're functionally equivalent to going to the Graveyard and looking for other Megidos in the Graveyard. The only differences are a couple of card interactions (like being Crow-proof) and flavour.

I would suggest you re-word the effect of Solor Hero to say something like: "This card's effect changes depending on the # of [blah] that is Removed from play"

Since the way it is now, if you have 6 Removed from play, you would have a 2200ATK monster that can Remove something from play, once per turn, and can still attack.

 

IMO, it seems a little over-powered.

I checked harpie's pet baby dragon for the wording, so I think it's number instead of #. About the card effect, I guess it can be overpowered, i just thought it would take a while to get 6 there and it would be bad as an opening hand since it's not that strong. I'll make it so it can't attack if it uses that effect.
