[i][b]If your opponent controls 2 or more cards than you do, you can Special Summon 1 "Ice Barrier" monster from your Graveyard by revealing "Ice Barrier" monsters with different names in your hand equal to the number of Tributes that monster would have required. During the End Phase, return that monster to your hand, then return up to (2 - the number of for this card's effect revealed "Ice Barrier" monsters) cards your opponent controls to their owner's hand.[/b][/i][/center]

Some things that I should mention: "Tributes that monster would've required" is solely based on that monsters level (4 or lower: 0; 5 or 6: 1; 7 or higher: 2). For example: Reviving a "Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier" with this would require you to reveal 1 monster, even though you technically don't need to tribute anything in order to summon it. Also, I know that this "(2 - the number of for this card's effect revealed "Ice Barrier" monsters)" is a kind of weird formula, but it was the only way to say it properly... at least the only way I saw. It means, that you can return cards up to the number of tributes that would've [i]not[/i] been required: Summoning a Level 4 (0 Tributes) results in returning 2 cards, a Level 7 or higher (2 Tributes) results in 0 affected cards.

Name is pretty boring, if someone can think of something better, don't hesitate :P Constructive Criticism appreciated, as always :)

So long,

Spoon

Card is loved by me. Not in the mood for corrections or anything, but know I lovez it.

As for a name... how about Miracle Ice Burial?

Thanks :)

But I don't want to bury them, I want to revive them :P

[font="Arial"]Good card. Can be really helpful in Ice Barrier decks. 9/10

The OCG is a little weird. I can understand it, that's the essential.
I know this fix is not OCG correct, but maybe its effect is more clear.

If the selected monster is a level 4 or lower monster, reveal 0 monsters. If the monster is a level 5 or 6 monster, reveal 1 monster. If the monster is a level 7 or higher monster, reveal 2 monsters. During the End Phase, return that monster to your hand, then return cards your opponent controls to their owner's hand up to 2 minus the number of monsters revealed due to this effect.[/b][/font]

Actually, Spoon's effect is simpler and says pretty much the same you do. So let's keep the other one.

Nope, that would mean if I Summon a monster with 2 Tributes, I get to return 2 cards, which is exactly what I didn't want. The weaker the monster Summoned, the higher the returns. Also it should say cards, not only monsters... have to fix that in the original card as well. Still, thanks for trying, I guess I'll just keep it that way with the additional text... YCM can do a little reading :P

I have to say my mistake was due to the fact that I didn't see the dash as a minus sign. *apologizes*
