2 Level 4 Spellcaster-Type monsters
If this card is Special Summoned by Xyz Summon: This card gains 200 ATK. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; reveal the top 3 cards of your Deck, pick 1 of them and return the rest to the Deck. The selected card is sent to the Graveyard and you can activate it's effect from your Graveyard during your next turn's Main Phase. (If a card sent to the Graveyard by this effect has multiple effects, you can only select and activate 1.)[/center]

This card is meant to support a rather undersupported Archetype (Until Return of the Duelist) so that they may actually have a half decent beater that they can easily bring out and also be able to use the full potential of their Deck without having to wait the turns to be drawn. This card was made in reference to Destiny Hero Diamond Dude, because of the fact that the abilities are shared and this card also has a similar activation timing to that of his Hero counterpart.

And how this card can be ran easily? Easy. Summoner Monk can make this a viable target in every Spellcaster deck and cause you to get easy turn 1 set-up for him and get ready for the onslaught next turn. Gravekeeper's Spy can also be used to easily make this, as it allows you to grab another Gravekeeper from your Deck and then Xyz for this pretty easily. This can also be used in unity with Secret Village of the Spellcasters, as the deck is slows the game down enough to bring everything down to the point where you can successfully activate the effects of this Ace easily.

Ah, an Xyz. Kokonoe, may I recommend using Yugico in order to create them? It's not too important, but regardless I do find they're nice quality, and their larger size allows more readable text.

Anyways, onto the card. As you've stated, it shares Diamond Dude-esque abilities, and it can easily be summoned with good ol' searchers. Not only that, but slowing down the game beckons the Royal Magical Library's Wall capabilities as well as drawing capabilities too. I imagine this card works with monster effects as well, but what about conditions? Would this card ignore them, or have to pay them? Also, what about Continuous Cards?

Regardless, it's a 2500 Xyz (Summon) beater who gives those Spellcasters something worth fighting for. I wouldn't be surprised seeing this used in Edymion/Arcanite Decks, or perhaps Dark Magicians. I reckon its effect needs clarifying though, unless I'm missing something obvious, that is.

Now THIS would be a good Spellcaster Xyz. (for god's sake Konami) So you basically mixed Pot of Duality with Destiny HERO - Diamond Dude. Though I would make some sort of condition for if the sent card is a Normal Monster. Also, I wonder if the wording that says "if it has multiple effects" would actually be able to be used, seeing as I'm not quite sure if there's any precedence. (of course, if there is, then please inform me and disregard this)
