typical similarity to DNA transplant, nothing new

also I don't see why you're only allowing this to be special summoned from the graveyard and nowhere else, care to explain?

The 2nd effect can safely be ignored for now, I am going to make that matter in a upcoming set. The main part is the special summoning effect. IDK really why I made it graveyard only (i.e. not from hand) it was more in an attempt to tone down its power than anything else. You think I should change?

What do you mean "stack?"

In it's current incarnation you can special summon any number of this card from the gy when one of your monsters is destroyed. Adding OR to its effect limits it to being summoned from your hand or graveyard (1 summon). Right now it's actually quite a bit more powerful than you probably intended.

I know you can special summon more than one. I like it like that. Is what he is trying to say that if I made it hand or graveyard I could only summon one? Really? (i honestly don't know. It would be one of the weirder rulings, but if they can make a difference between "if... you can" and "when... you can" then I guess they can make a deal about anything)

The ruling is that you can only activate 1 SS Trigger effect in your hand.
It's a good ruling otherwise you could summon a Gorz and a Trag from 1 instance of battle damage.
The problem is that this also extends to ANYTHING whose effect even INCLUDES summoning from the hand.
As such, you cannot summon 2 Green Baboon from 1 instance of destruction because it's effect is also from the hand.
As it is your card IS Green Baboon done right (in my opinion at least), only because you can actually go "PUPPIES AND RAINBOWS YEA DOUBLE GREEN BABOON ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE FIELD!!!!"

ignoring the puppies and rainbows comment, thanks for explaining. I knew the from the hand ruling but I did not know it extended to anything that COULD be from the hand. Now I understand :) So, I guess I will keep it the same for now seeing as I intended for multiple copies at the same time possibly, and you seem to like it better this way as well.
