Wind-Up Beetle

[AvzinElkein]

I found this in Pojo, and made some small tweaks.  It's an anti-Wind-Up card.

 

Wind-Up Beetle
Level 2/Earth
Insect/Effect
0/800
If your opponent Summons a "Wind-Up" Monster, you can Special Summon this card from your hand to your opponent's side of the field in face-up Attack Position or face-up Defense Position.  The effects of all other "Wind-Up" monsters you control are negated, and you cannot Xyz Summon.  During each of your end phases, Special Summon 1 "Wind-Up" monster from your deck in face-down defense position. except "Wind-Up Beetle".

Pojo.

Enough said.

This is awful, I'm sorry.

Who is going to side in archetype specific cards for that off chance that it messes up a deck? 

I mean, it does its job, but still.

And why does "except beetle" need to be added?

The long story-ish short, archetype killing is a bad idea.

And why does "except beetle" need to be added?

Otherwise, it would negate itself, and form an infinite loop.

Or, if you're talking about the last effect...I am not sure, really. Odd that it's there.

The "Face-up Attack Position or Face-Up Defense position" text in its self-SS effect is unnecessary.

It actually seems like it might hurt anything that consistently goes into Zenmaines, Zenmaister, or Zenmoau regularly, since it disables ALL Xyz Summons. it's interesting in that regard.

It's meant to hurt and help enemy Wind-Ups...except that you can't make any plays with the monsters it Summons. It deadens the field and creates few interesting situations.
