Number 99: Universal Oracle
DARK
Rank 4
Spellcaster/Xyz/Effect

Atk 2200 Def: 2800
3 Level 4 monsters
When this card is XYZ summoned: Look at the top 3 cards for your Deck add 1 of them to your hand then and return those cards to the top of the Deck in any order. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; your opponent reveals all cards in their hand and all set cards on their side of the field. When this card is destroyed (either by battle or by an opponent's card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Declare 1 card name; if that card is on the field or in your opponent's hand, send it to the Graveyard.

The card idea combines "Spellbook of Organization," and "Mind Hazork" as both cards are hardly ever played. The main idea was once you look at what your opponent controls you then look at the top three cards of your deck to prepare a counter to their potential move, but yeah allowing the 3 card stack might be a bit much seeing as how you get to look at what your opponent controls for free. Will edit and thanks for the comment!

OCG fix (taking "Fruit of Kozaky's Studies" and "Mind Haxorz" as examples):

 

Once per turn: Look at the top 3 cards for your Deck and return those cards to the top of the Deck in any order. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; look at your opponent's hand and all Set cards on their side of the field. When this card is destroyed (either by battle or by an opponent's card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Declare 1 card name; if that card is on the field or in your opponent's hand, send it to the Graveyard.

 

 

The ATK/DEF looks a bit low for a 3-Material Rank 4. This one looks like a defensive Xyz, so I would raise the DEF to 2800~2900, if not 3000.

 

Agreed with Scary: The first effect is quite powerful to have no cost. How about making the first effect trigger only when the monster is Xyz Summoned?

(When this card is Xyz Summoned: Look at the...)

 

You could also buff the last effect and make it similar to "Mind Crush" in that it sends all cards with the declared name to the graveyard instead of just 1. That would help with compensating the -2 you took from summoning this card.

If I go the trigger route I might allow change the effect to allow the player to add 1 card to the hand and send the rest back in any order - or let them look at the top 4 or 5 cards. The looking at the cards in your deck was designed to allow a player to find the right cards to react to their opponents plays now that they know what is one the field and in their hand. For the destruction effect I like the suggestion of mind crush as it can disturb someones plays if they are saving multiples of the same card. I appreciate the feed back!
