Gemini Slug

[Zazubat]

I'm not currently able to use my computer, so I am using YuGiCo right now, even though I really dislike to do so, since it looks like crap. Another Gemini Support, play this card and my card Gemini Mage, and you're protector for most things.

             

 

If you control a "Gemini" monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only Special Summon 1 "Gemini Slug" this way per turn. This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect:
Other "Gemini" monsters cannot be destroyed by battle or by card effects. Once per turn, if you control another "Gemini" card: You can target 1 "Gemini" monster or 1 Gemini card in your Graveyard; shuffle that target into the Deck, then draw 1 card. If this card destroys a monster by battle: You can add 1 "Gemini" card from your Deck to your hand.

I think your image link is broken, so I'll leave the majority of flavour analysis out of it for now. I can't assess a number of things due to the lacking of valuable stats, like Level, Attack, Defence, Attribute, and most importantly Set ID! D=

I can evaluate the effect though, so I'll do so: It is a faster Gemini Summoning system (which might be contradictory to a Slug's nature?) which I think is a little unfair, simply because you can Summon a Gemini of this monster's Level, Splash out this, and Xyz instantly which, well, doesn't really come across as a Gemini Way. Maybe the Special Summon Clause should demand that there must be a Gemini monster with an unlocked effect?

The unlocked effect seems pretty decent, but again hinges on the hidden stats. It is good in that it offers protection as well as allows you to recycle Geminis into your Deck, but then offers you the ability to fish out exactly what kind of Gemini monster you want. Unless this critter has measly ATK, this is definitely not balanced, because you'd be providing a Beatstick that can be Splashed out very quickly, provide a wall for other Geminis, and be able to act as a gold mine in terms of drawing cards. Not only this, but if you have two Slugs out, which are Beatsticks, and provide both each other protection, forming a nigh-indestructible wall?

It needs nerfing, really.

You can blame the image on YuGiCo, awful damn site that never wants to work. The Summon is for "Gemini" only, so not all Gemini Monsters will work. It's stats are 1400 ATK and 1800 DEF I believe. Oh, and in terms of flavor, it's a slug with wings, if that means anything to it's weirdly speedy summoning.

Ah, I see! I misread that, then, so the only targets include Gemini Lancer and Gemini Soldier in the OCG/TCG, as well as your Gemini Mage. That significantly balances it, as well as the stats you've given it. Much better =D
