Knight of the West

[Zobian]

 

Lore: When this card is Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 level 4 Warrior-Type monster from your hand or deck to the field in Attack Position. That monster cannot attack and is destroyed at the End Phase of the turn this effect is activated.

First of all, a new member knowing when they've double-posted, and asking for a lock? I already know I like you.

This card is quite fast, like a Tour Guide of the Underworld for Lv4 Warriors. But, from both hand and deck seems a little too much. Even with the restrictions given, it is clear that the intention to use this card is for an instant Extra Deck Summon.

With this in mind, I would suggest you add the following clause: "When this card is Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 level 4 Warrior-Type monster from your hand or Deck to the field in Attack Position. That monster is destroyed at the End Phase of the turn this effect is activated. If you activate this effect, you cannot Special Summon monsters, except Warrior-Type monsters for the rest of this turn." This would balance it out, I feel.

A notable fun thing you can do is, with this, you could trigger a Daybreaker's effect. Special Summon 1 Daybreaker from Deck with this, Special Summon 1, then another from your hand if you're lucky enough to hold 'em.

 I think it's too strong, as its an instant Rank 4, and it could be one that requires two warriors at that. Also, why is the summoned monster's effect not negated? That's what makes this card  WAY too good and sets up the possibility of all sorts of combos. Even without that, it's a one card Blade Armour Ninja/ Excalibur, etc.

 

An example of the combos:

(assault halberd ->) This card -> thousand blades -> (thousand blades ->) extra sword = Rhongomiant with 4/5 materials -> offer handshake.

(The above requires 3 heroic cards and this card/ROTA, or 2 heroics and this, or as Kyng said, a few Daybreakers and an assault halberd if you're using currently available cards)

 

Maybe tone it down a bit more.

This card can either set up for a Rank 4 Warrior or generic Xyz (as above user noted) OR a Level 5+ Synchro monster.

 

Agreeing with Kyng on the limitation part; that will prevent players from going into stuff such as Number 101, Exciton, Castel and other generic Rank 4s that people spam (first three are not Warriors). Though this can be used to summon Rhongomiant; however the said user's combo requires prior setup in order to pull it off.

 

Either way, a restriction is in order. Either put a Type restriction on summoning OR if you really want to take heed over Number 86 and whatever Warrior Xyz proving to be problematic, just lock off other Special Summons for the turn. A lot of Decks would see some use for this card; Noble Knights, Heroics, E-HERO and so on.
