[quote]2 Level 7 monsters
You can Xyz Summon this card using 2 "Ice Barrier" Synchro Monsters. If you do, it is destroyed during the End Phase of the turn it is Xyz Summoned. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card: Until the End Phase of your next turn, this card gains the effect(s) of the detached monster.[/quote]

Made this using that YugiCo maker; only because I don't have GIMP. Really, my first Xyz. Figured I'd try it out.

I'm not sure it's a good idea to destroy it during the end phase that way, seems such a waste

The effect siphoning part is good, but still.

I don't see your point. It only destroys itself if you use Ice Barrier Synchro Monsters as the Xyz Material, meaning you could use an effect like Brionac, or Gungnir, etc. That was the whole point of that.

If you just use generic rank 7's (any of them), it doesn't destroy itself during the end phase.

Which is stupid, considering that its supposed to support the archetype.

And no, you couldn't use "Brionac, Gungnir, etc". Its a rank 7. You could only use 2 gungnir.

No; the whole point was saying that you could use any 2 Ice Barrier Synchros in place of the normal rank, i.e. Chaos Number 39, that lets you use Utopia as opposed to having to use the normal materials.

In which case you have to specify "Any 2 Ice Barrier Synchro monsters".

Card's pointless. I'd rather just use their effects... And then, for a Rank 7 it's redundant no matter how you look at it. Also, ridiculously outclassed by Big Eye.

Then try specifying that. Hope Ray states "If you control a face-up Utopia, you can use it as Xyz materials [b]instead[/b]"

Your card just states that Ice Barrier Synchros can be used as Xyz Material for it. All you've managed to do with that is point out an obvious game mechanic.
