Normal Spell Card

Pay 800 Life Points and target up to 2 of your banished Psychic-Type monsters; add them to your hand.

 

Pardon the self-promotion of course, but I was filming this video today and I was thinking about the legitimate practical uses of the card.  I've seen a lot of people sort of hype it (and of course Light of Redemption) as really good options for Kozmo, but obviously the Deck isn't even close to being all-revealed, so it's a bit early.

 

However, I do think the fact that it's "up to" 2 rather than just 2 means it's a lot more versatile and can act either as a plus or as a good play when you really need it.

 

As far as Kozmo goes, yeah it can only target Psychics, but the Machines aren't all that useful when banished anyway, and it's much more effective as far as synergy goes to be able to get them back.

 

Some thoughts, perhaps?

It has so much potential, but it's not seeing any play because there's no need for it since there's at least no other consistent and effective banish-psychic archetype that can be abused with this card. And Esper Girl.dek, ritual Beast, Kozmo came fairly close but this card just couldn't see the light of day unlike how universally applicable Teleport is.

I think it's way too soon to say whether or not Kozmo would be able to use it.  As of right now, getting Farmgirl or Witch back to hand would definitely be useful, and if the archetype continues to follow that structure and more Psychic-Type monsters are made that have similar effects, it could definitely be a 1-2 of.

 

A scrubby use would be teching this in Ritual Beasts to add whatever monster you Banished for the Fusion.  Again, it's scrubby but it is a thought.

 

Someone asked me about that on the video comments and honestly, it's just not necessary.  I think Ritual Beasts can recur what they need far more easily and without having to worry about bricking (which the Deck already does quite well) just by using the Fusions and Ambush.

Except, Kozmos don't need it. Town already does pretty fine returning banished Girls and Witches and can actually be searched and abused unlike Path. Kozmos also don't really compile banished Pyschics either so Path doesn't seem as effective either. Path in Kozmos is just unnecessary space that can be fit for better techs.

Guys, protip: just because a card says "Psychic" and "banish" in one card, it doesn't mean it's good in Kozmos. Hell, chance is it's not. You will very rarely have more than 1, maybe 2 things banished due to how quickly you recycle everything with Kozmotown.

I agree with you, however we don't know what the new Kozmo stuff will be. As of now, I do think the card has potential in PSYframes and I figured it was worth bringing up.

OP makes a point about it potentially being a thing. But as is, it rides on chance a bit, seeing as how we don't know how far they plan to take the Kozmo Archetype.

I can only imagine that Kozmo will get the level of support that Burning Abyss does, or is at least playable.

Yeah they really need to have Elder + Kannahawk/Rampenta opening or they brick.  And Ambush does cover any and all potential ideas that Psychic Path could have used it for.

I get the feeling Psy-Frames will really, really want this.

Would they not prefer Psychic Feel Zone to summon the synchros , which do not need to be properly summoned anyways as they either recycle themselves from the grave or return to the field ?

I am not sure about Kozmo, they do have their field spell, which is, unlike this card, searchable, may cost a bit (ignoring they have forerunner) and is, unlike this card, continuous, so it can be used more often than this card.

This might be useful for Kozmos if they get a reason to banish more in a single turn, while consistently doing it.
