Eh not so bad, not so good either. Depends on the support more or less.

Funny, because Spell and Trap card effects could never be chained to the Summon of a monster, since, you know, it doesn't start a chain. So I guess it's kind of useless.

You can return a Synchro monster to its owner's Extra Deck... from where? Also, free 2500 beatstick for a Synchro that's also synchroable and recycles? Lolno, and that return clause better not be from the field.

This is not that bad, it's actually quite solid since it will net you exactly a level 5 Synchro.

Select 1 cards. All your cards are belong to us. Maybe too good in a lolfish deck.

Hmm, not that good, it's a decent searcher but meh, empty field? Make it empty frontrow at least.

Yeah, because everyone and their mother that expands an archetype feels the need to add a generic draw spell.

I'll take Monster Reborn, thank you, and Call of the Haunted, and if I have some room left and need some more revival, I might chuck a copy of this card, but seriously, no. Plain revival Spells are old news, especially if you put in such a cost they need something good to be competitive.

It's actually a counter-intuitive card for the archetype, who generally has no problem offing themselves for gain since they maintain hand advantage, and the second effect is just unneeded.

Overall it's a nice effort, but you seem to have missed the mark, as in, the point of the archetype, in a lot of these cards. Also, is your username from Claymore?

And you're wrong about the bolded.
Nothing chains to a summon. Any card activated against a summon generally start a new chain.

Also, there is a BIG difference between the Solemn cards and BTH and TT.

The Solemn cards negate the summon, which is right after the summon, while the other cards are used after the summon is successful. Either way, they start a new chain.

Word your card like such:

"[...], the Synchro Summon cannot be negated, and when the Synchro monster monster is Synchro Summoned successfully, Spell and Trap Cards and their effects cannot be activated."

This should stop what you intend to stop.

I've actually fixed it already...XD

[Zkaiser]

Did you mean to word the draw card like that? The other Spell and Trap work with 1 Tech Genus but the draw card needs 2+.

Anyway, interesting cards. I kind of see how the work towards accel-synchro.

Good stuff, though it would be cool if they had their TF5 effects.

Yeah..I was...kinda Iffy at how abusable could it be I though asking 2 monster would balance it more...but I might have make it underpowered?

Thanks for the comment..I'll update later...
