Well done! I can see this easily being used @3 in a Burning Abyss deck. I haven't played with them at all, but as far as I know using the Pleiades combo with this would get at least a +1 back to your opponent, or Zenmaines. Not to mention using Dante itself, of course.

Using Cir to reclycle this would also be a pain to your opponent, IMO.

 

And the pic is amazing, it looks like it was just made for this purpose xD

The hell are you smoking? Don't you realize how f***ing broken this actually is? Burning Abyss is a pretty cool archetype, sure, but they do not deserve a monster that can shuffle 1 monster your opponent controls, minimum, into the deck, and from what? Just fro being sent to the Graveyard? Seriously, just about anything sets this damn thing off, even by just fetching this with Graff when detached from a non-Burning Abyss Xyz monster.

Calm down, would ya - _ -

Instead of act like... well ... like that, suggest something to make it balanced. However, I'm not seeing that this card is broken ...

Tour Guide => Graff. Xyz Summon anything but Dante => Detach Graff for cost => Summon Drag from the effect of Graff => Drag automatically dies from there being a non-Burning Abyss monster on the field => shuffle any monster your opponent controls into the deck.

 

Did I really have to break it down for you? The fact here is that this thing allows you to remove any one threat, or more, just getting it into the Graveyard, by any means. How can you not understand that an effect like that is broken?

 

I didn't try to balance it because balancing it would involve scrapping the last effect all together.

How about spinning up to 5 of your opponent's monsters, just for sending this card to the grave by any means (mill, discard, detach, etc.)? Do you think that's fair?

At first I thought it spinned monsters in the opponent's grave, which is certainly disruptive but doesn't generate card advantage, but then I noticed it targeted monsters on the field and I realized how crazy the card is. Even if it could target just 1 monster the card would be powerful enough.

 

As for suggestions, you could actually change its targets to monsters in the grave as I initally thought the card did, and reduce the maximum amount of monsters it can target so you won't be recycling 5 of your opponent's monsters almost every turn; I think that even targeting only 1 monster would be fair enough. Banishing the monsters in the grave instead of recycling them is also an option.

as mentioned above, this is indeed very broken

this card alone can wipe out full field without little to no drawback (possible 5 BA in grave along with this card) since BA is very easily searchable and milled

just special summon this card when you have another monster, self destruct and wipe out opponent monsters, to make thing worse, it

also easily done on opponent's turn 

 

to make it fair, you have to tone down the effect to the level of like destroying 1 monster if this card is sent to grave, since even shuffling 1 of your opponent monster just with this card being sent to grave is a little much
