Synchros from the Graveyard?

[Zextra]

[center]To go along with my new Playability > Creativity resolve, here is another card that is not original, but can work (I hope) as a staple (if not immediately bannable). Anyways, please give helpful feedback/comments and constructive criticism. Thanks

[i][b]Lore:
Select 1 Synchro monster from your Extra Deck and remove from your Graveyard Synchro-material monsters with a combined Level equal to the Level of the Selected Synchro Monster (these monsters must all be the same Attribute). Special Summon the Synchro Monster (This is treated as a Synchro Summon).[/b][/i][/center]

Much against what you might believe, I think its Very creative and very crafty, not something your opponent might expect.
Its sort of like the easiest bit of a synchro summon and the easiest bit of a fusion summon (not having to have the cards on the field) rolled into 1, as its a normal spell, its not ludicriously overpowered, but it definitely is, the same attribute limitation can calm it a little so its not too cruel, but nasty enough, maybe a 1 limit.

Maybe a small limitation instead of the attribute could be - pay life points equal to the synchros level x300 or something along those lines.

Thank you.
You see, this was the card that first made me create "Creative" cards because it got a very bad rating for being "unoriginal".
I posted it months ago, and the only feedback I got was:

Now the effect, no matter if somewhat balanced doesn't seem that Original to me. It just doesn't.So i would have to give this card a 5/10.

I have never heard of synchro summoning through the graveyard before, his idea of original and mine are miles apart.

Besides, if he knocks it down by 5 just for lack of originality and no other reason, that clearly wasn't an opinion worth listening to.

[Zextra]

lol, apparently he was one of the most respected cardmakers at the time (when I was a 2 star )
Anyways, I appreciate it. However, what I do know is that this card needs OCG corrections (I honestly have no idea how to word certain things)

[endphase]

Here is your OCG correction. It's a creative card, but the cost is to low. 9/10

There are multiple corrections possible, this is 1 of them.
[font="Arial"]Select 1 Synchro monster from your Extra Deck and remove from play Synchro Material monsters with a combined Level equal to the Level of the Selected Synchro Monster from your Graveyard( these monsters must have the same Attribute). Special Summon the Synchro Monster (This is treated as a Synchro Summon).[/font]

[Daigusto Sphreez]

I have the same problems regarding OCG, but provided it sounds like it has been worded quite well, I don't think it effects the card at all.

[♥Łövëły-Ċħän♥]

It's actually not that creative. It's very useful yes but I don't think it'd be stapled >>. It may be used alot but doubt stapled. There are cards with this effect only the monsters removed do not have to be the same attribute and the monster is often either removed from play during the end phase or returned. There are also cards that remove monsters from the Graveyard to summon Synchros from the Graveyard.

It's fine by me. Nothing new but useful in a way. Not much for me to say. I'm not a fan of these types of cards but I must admit they have some use.

That would be unnecessary and painfully redundant. Synchro Material means that very same thing. It means you must send (Or remove/whatever depending on the effect) monsters to meet the requirements of the synchro summoning mechanics. Adding this just reiterates that point.

[Lightning Bagon]

Actually good idea. It also gave me a idea.

[Y.M.R.creator]

Nice card! Perfect for a synchro-set!
9/10

[Shinato Demise of Oblivion]

Great, Love it, your making really good cards

[Sploda]

I don't see this card becoming a staple, but for a Deck like a Naturia Deck this would be very helpful since most of your cards will be of a single Attribute.

Love the picture, the effect seems balanced enough, I'd use it.

[CDDRodrigo]

Great card. For me it's very original, too. 9.5/10

One thing that could change is the moment to summon the Synchro. It could be like Future Fusion, where you can summon a monster with the same name as the selected one. Just a thought.

[Zextra]

Thanks, all of you
@CDD, I don't quite understand what you're getting at when you say "same name as the selected one"

[Zextra]

Any more comments?

It's because, for example, your opponent plays Success Probability 0% (just an example), and then it chooses, to send to the grave, the monster you were about to summon. If it was one with the same name, there wouldn't be such problem.
