Could be quite annoying if you use it on their empty field then use Kaiser Colosseum.

I was originally going to say that this card was slightly OP'd because of the ATK gain/OTK potential. But then it occurred to me how broken this card really is because it gives you instant access to 4 pieces of Exodia. In the long run, this is probably worse than Painful Choice, and that card is banned. Up to 4 pieces of Exodia that will just end up in your Graveyard. Plus, you might run 3 of this guy. Or, you can perhaps use Pot of Avarice to send them back to the Deck, draw 2 cards and repeat the process.

That's my big problem right there. It is basically Painful Choice with the opportunity to inflict heavy damage. So, just think of this as overall too good.

...Only Asura Priest and cards with that same effect could truly break this card. Sure it gives your opponent a butt-ton of punching bags but if you can't capitalize on that at the moment of this creatures summon then you have to pray they don't have a tuner because you have just given them 4 free material to screw you over with. I say its fine personally.

That's not the problem. The issue period is that you can potentially fill up your OWN graveyard extremely fast. Ever hear of say... Lightning Vortex? The Asura Priest Set up is potentially harmful to your opponent, but the bigger matter is that you are given too much of an advantage.

People talking about this card without any mention of the targets, which are specific. Let's ignore Exodia pieces, because that's an idiotically designed card that needs to be banned anyway. Targets you might actually use are... Jester Confit and R-Genex Oracle. I can't think what Normal Support would justify Thousand-Eyes Idol, and Jester Lord probably needs his own Deck. Okay, so apart from clogging your opponent's field... which isn't fun game design... this can potentially work as part of an OTK... which isn't fun game design.

As a beatstick, very mediocre, probably 1700-1900 most of the time, and 2000+ beatsticks aren't hard to find. Breaker, for example, is a 1900 with a far more useful effect.

I really don't see any situation where this card would add fun to the game.
