Lore: 3 level 4 plant-type monsters.
You can detach 3 Xyz materials from this card; Destroy all spell and trap cards on the field and in both players hands. Both players take damage equal to the number of their respective spell and trap cards destroyed by this effect x300.

In a nutshell, it's a watered down Chaos Emperor Dragon in more ways then one.[list]
[*]Less ATK. 2400 ATK cannot run over most boss monsters, while 3000 ATK could easily do so.
[*]It's considerable harder to summon. Good luck getting 3 level 4 plants on the field.
[*]It's not as splashable. Again, only really works in plant decks.
[*]Both players take damage from it's effect. Then again, if you have no spell/traps on the field or in your hand, this ain't an issue since you don't take damage.
[*]Only targets spell/trap cards. CED could nuke everything, allowing for Sangan to use it's searching effect and begin the infamous Yata-Garasu lockdown.
[/list]
On the otherhand, it does have it's perks over the forbidden dragon[list]
[*]As mentioned, there is a chance you won't take any damage from the effect at all.
[*]Prevents your opponent playing spell or traps for a while. Like Cold Wave but with burn damage.
[/list]
Is it OP, or is the summoning conditions too much? Since I cannot think of any boss monster that is used often in the meta that this card can run over. Grapha, BLS, REDMD, JD, etc. all are considerable better in terms of ATK and arguably their effect.

Though this is surely not a common combo someone would do but: Ultimate Offering + Gadget+ DNA Surgery= Super plant thing

I am overly cautious about super destruction cards that cannot countered because it still sets you up for much more devastating hurt. So I would say loose the cannot be able to chain thing. Its only real threat anyway is veiler, I don't divine wrath is that common anyway.

Removed the "cannot chain effects to this card" part.

As for that 5 card combo involving DNA surgery, you could pretty much do the same thing with DNA surgery, Scapegoat and then Polymerization to summoned Five-Headed Dragon...or just play Ojama Trio then Super Poly every your opponent has out for said Five-Headed Dragon.

Is there is some way of writing the lore text where it prevents use of changing the monsters printed type to plants to summon this card?
