[spoiler='Lore']2 Level 4 Gemini Monsters

When this card is Xyz Summoned: You can add 1 Equip Spell Card from your Deck or Graveyard to your hand. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; Special Summon 1 Normal Monster from your Graveyard, and if you do, you can Normal Summon 1 Gemini Monster as an additional Normal Summon. You can only use this effect of "Dirge of Ancient Memories" once per turn. This card is treated as a Normal Monster while it has no Xyz Materials. This card is treated as a Normal Monster while in the Graveyard.[/spoiler]

 

The metagame has gotten faster and Geminis have never been anywhere near competitive. And even having two at the same time is hard to do. So, I decided to give them fitting support, with the ability to search Supervise or any other desired Equip Spell Card. To make them faster, I also let him Special Summon a Gemini monster from the Graveyard and give a bonus Normal Summon to either let that Gemini monster have its effects activated open up more Rank 4 plays. I put the clause "... as a second Normal Summon" so if you activate Dismal Dirge of Memories' effect twice, you cannot Normal Summon again. His effect of being treated as a Normal Monster was included so he could be a reliable beatstick immune to stuff like Fiendish Chain, and be fodder in the Graveyard for Wyrm the Genesis Dragon.

I haven't ran Geminis in current game, but it's something to try.

 

Besides the likely event where this is played and Fiendish Chain is already down, this card is sexy.

You obviously put a bit of Meta-game thought into it, so my question for you is: What are your thoughts on changing it to detatch 2 so it can be a normal monster quicker for more plays?

My thoughts on changing it to 2 is kind of meh. The reason it detaches 1 is so that after you swarm with its effect and somehow things go wrong, you can swarm again next turn for even better combos. Or if he survives another turn, you can detach the remaining material after you Xyz/Synchro into something to Special Summon the used Gemini Monster.
