"Transcendent" An Archetype

[CommanderVolt]

Basic Info: "Transcendent" monsters are all (currently) Spellcasters that are either LIGHT or DARK. Have 400 ATK and DEF times their level and have the following effect. "During your Main Phase, you can Normal Summon this card from your graveyard." Note that releases are still require for monsters higher then level 4.

The Term used for the graveyard summon is called Ascend Summon (I think that fits)

OCG fixing heavily appreciated.

Comments, Ratings? effect tinkering? Everything welcome.

Transcendent Oracle - An okay card. Could possibly be considered overpowered, though. Especially if your opponent has an empty field.

Transcedent Scholar - Overpowered. Even without the Draw 1, its other effect allows for too many combos and potential overpowerment of the opponent.

Transcedent Priest - Overpowered as well, because of its last effect. I would make it "from the hand" instead of the Graveyard.

Transcendent Necromancer - Like I told you before, it's difficult to pick a balanced power for this sort of effect. The effect itself makes them all very versatile, so having a "good" effect otherwise actually makes them overpowered. The first effect or the second effect is fine, but not together. The second effect should also make them have to be in defense.

Transcendent Iacchus - "Halve the ATK of all other monsters on the field until the End Phase of the turn" would be better, in my opinion.

Transcendent Erinyes - I'd say to make it a single card that can be flipped face-down, not all.

Transcendent Melinoe - Balanced because it has to be targeted, and because it has to be Summoned from the grave for its effect.

Transcendent Persephone - Looks alright. Not much to say here.

Transcendent Mediator - More than balanced. Really underpowered, in my opinion. It should just need 2 Tributes, not 3, at the very least.
