varia magician girl (diamond dude v2.0? experimental idea alert)

[I Hate Snatch Steal]

 

If your opponent controls a monster and you control no monsters, you can Normal Summon/Set this card without Tributing. This card is level 4 while in the deck or graveyard. Once per turn you can look at the top 3 cards of your deck, send 1 normal/quick-play spell card or 1 normal trap card among them to the graveyard, and shuffle the other card(s) into the deck; this effect will be the same as the sent card's effect (all activation timing requirements must be met). This effect cannot affect the cards in your opponent's hand and in their deck.

 

I know from playing a diamond dude explotation deck in the yu-gi-oh video games how fun this style of effect can be, but also how inconsistent it can be as a balancing factor.

^ Rulings are consistent with these rulings, except the following:

 

Timing is the only requirement you have to meet with Varia Magician Girl.

 

Meaning that you can copy Magical Explosion if you have a card(s) in your hand, Ojama Delta Hurricane without having the relevent ojama monsters on the field, or Final Inzection without sending 5 inzektor cards you control to the graveyard. You cannot however, copy Torriential Tribute or Rise of the Snake Deity because the timing will be incorrect (a monster wasn't just summoned or vennominion wasn't just destroyed respectivly).

 

You cannot copy a counter trap because since an ignition effect cannot be chained to something, the timing is always incorrect.

 

^ new errata fixes that.

 

I might have forgotten some combo or something that would get this banned, if there is such a thing, please enlighten me.

 

edit: I guess huge revolution exists, but that's just 1 card. I don't think that its enough to make this overpowered considering all the effort needed to get it to work with huge revolution. I will change the card if there are too many game breakers like huge revolution out there though.

 

^ fixed that

This card is quite interesting. I like the effect ( a card with a cyber dragon like effect with the ability to work as a spell/trap card.)

Also I feel like this could have some useful competitive use with spellcasters/spellbook decks. The card art is cool too.

Overall: 9.5/10 All I suggest is increasing the DEF of the card a little.
