Number S39: Utopia the Lightning
Light Warrior / Xyz / Effect
RK5 2500/2000
3 Level 5 LIGHT monsters
You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 5 “Utopia” monster you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) This card cannot be used as an Xyz Material for an Xyz Summon. (1) If this card attacks or is attacked, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage step. (2) If this card has a “Utopia” monster as an Xyz Material, when this card battles a monster, during damage calculations: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; this card’s ATK becomes 5000 during that damage calculation only.

Since the Org and Wikia effects are now the same, this is the effect I'm going with for the OP for now.  I guess we may need RUM Shining Force to Rank Up Prime into this after all.

Ouch.

 

Being able to be Summoned by using ANY Utopia is amazingly good. But as a downside, it cannot be used as Xyz Material for a Summon, so no Rank-Ups or Xyz Changes past this point. When it battles, it prevents opponent cards and effects from being used, and if you have a Utopia as Material, you can detach 1 and make it a 5000 beater for that battle (but only when it battles monsters).

 

It's great, but mostly as a finisher.

I suspected they'd try to make Utopia worth maining again. imo they didn't disappoint. I'm a little sad over this meaning we won't get Shining Force, but not needing a RUM makes this thing so much better. I like the Utopia Beyond combo or maybe even something cute like Asura Strike in it.

And that art design. <3

As happy as I am for Ghostricks, this really should require OG S39 for its rank up.

This would mean that/reasons why it shluld require S39:
Can't go over Utopia Beyond, meaning it's not a 2-card 2-ED slot investment to deal 5000 damage in anything R6, particularly Hieratics.
Card isn't a 2-slot investment in general, but 3. This is a better design choice because it means you give up a significant chunk of your ED for a powerful 2-mat Armades. This makes it much less powerful due to needing too much dedication in general, but that makes it a better balance, considering its 5K for 3 battles or so as-is, and 4 or so the other way.
The idea that 2x Level 1 makes this is just... Silly.

I think this here is the real effect

 

3 Level 5 LIGHT monsters
You can also Xyz Summon this card by using a Rank 5 "Utopia" monster you control as the Xyz Material. (Xyz Materials attached to that monster also become Xyz Materials on this card.) Cannot be used as an Xyz Material for an Xyz Summon. If this card attacks or is attacked, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step. When this card battles an opponent's monster while it has a "Utopia" monster as an Xyz Material, during damage calculation: You can detach 2 Xyz Materials from this card; this card's ATK becomes 5000 during that damage calculation only.

The Wiki had it as the effect in the OP the last time I saw it.

I could see the 2-detach being the actual translation just to piss me off.

The Xyz Change condition doesn't make sense though. The manga had it go up from Utopia Prime to this, and Prime is Rank 4. I know prints aren't going to follow exactly how it was done but usually cards like these fit those aesthic purpose.
