Power of the Gemini [10/?]

[razzy]

Gemini monsters are far and few (if at all) between anymore these days.
In this thread I'm going to try to revive them and give them new life in the days of powerful Xyz and Pendulums!
As always any cnc is welcome!
And I was also wanting your guy's thoughts on the whole "it is treated as an effect monster and gains its effects" vs "it gains its effects". My vote is for the later, as it shortens the text which is never a bad thing in a game like this. Plus as long as Geminis have been around it is somewhat "common knowledge" they're normal monster until resummoned or gain their effects via another way. For these first few I used a mixture so let me know which you prefer :)

This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have gain this effect:

Looks cool, bringing back some Geminis, my only issue would be the wording of the field spell:

 

Each time a Gemini Monster is Normal Summoned or sent to the Graveyard by an opponent's card effect: Place 1 "Gemini" counter on this card. During either player's turn when a Gemini Monster is targeted by a Spell/Trap card: You can remove 2 "Gemini" counters from this card; negate that effect.
You can target 1 Gemini monster you control; remove 3 "Gemini" counters from this card, and if you do, treat that target as an effect monster, and it gains its effects. You can only use this effect of "Primordial Gully o the Gemini" once per turn.

 

Now I know what it is supposed to mean, and TBH I don't know how to fix that wording, but to the untrained YuGiOh player that looks like it means Each time a Gemini Monster is Normal Summoned by an opponent's card effect or sent to the Graveyard by an opponent's card effect

 

The only possible way I could think to fix this would be to reverse the order so it reads Each time a Gemini Monster is sent to the Graveyard by an opponent's card  effect or Normal Summoned:

 

I also might just be crazy and the wording could be perfectly fine, if it is than just ignore this post I guess. Overall good set though.

Thanks for the input. I changed it around. So hopefully it is easier to understand.

Plan on adding a few cards when I get back tonight. :)
