Reborn Gigas:
(*) (*) (*) (*)
Earth/Warrior/Effect
If this card is in your Graveyard during your Draw Phase having been destroyed by card effect; You can Special Summon this card instead of your normal draw.
1700/1200

Not quite sure on how to word the effect or what stats to give it. It's supposed to be based on Orichalcos Gigas, only without the stat gain.

The current cost means unless you've got a decent search engine you've literally stalled your deck (providing you resummon him every turn). Will check out Satellars.

Satellars have Deneb to search, and Altair can fetch from the Graveyard, so there is not really much of a reason to draw if you don't need to.

Flame Tiger already does this, but only if you have no monsters, and it dissolves like Quillbolt if you don't Xyz with it. Satellars probably can't use this any more than they can use Flame Tiger since they can't dump either one. It also interferes with their Skybridge but I haven't seen that used.

 

It draws Warrior support, but that doesn't make it easier to put it in the Graveyard. I can't imagine why you'd use this to make Rank 4s and not just use a fast Rank 4 engine.

  There are some minor ways in which the "spam thing" can be eliminated. For instance:

- Banish it when it leaves the field.

- Can only be activated once per Duel.

- Cannot be used as Synchro/Xyz Material.

Additionally, you can change its Level from 4 to 3 or 5, so it doesn't become that big of a threat.

Xyz requires it to be attached to said monster as material. So unless you're gonna detach and summon it on your next turn, it isn't very xyz spammy since it can't be summoned 2 turns later. It can't be used as a continuous summon engine anyway since it has to be destroyed to be summoned again.

The best synergy it has is with Gadgets or something similar that can turn each Xyz into a -0, but there's the trouble of getting it into the Graveyard in the first place. You did not need to nerf it this much. Losing your Draw each turn for the Special Summon is a huge loss since every Xyz Summon is a natural -1.
