First off, the fact that it has a mandatory effect that activates in your hand is a bad idea. Your opponent will never be able to confirm whether you had a mandatory effect that had to activate or not.

 

It's a Hand Trap like Battle Fader, except worse at stalling and better at everything else. It is non-targeting non-destruction removal with no cost to you, and while it does require your opponent to attack, it doesn't require a direct attack so you can be sure to get rid of the problem by the time your opponent's Battle Phase comes around. Unlike Gorz, your opponent won't anticipate it. As a Hand Trap, you can present no backrow to your opponent and have this be completely unexpected. And again, since this it doesn't require a direct attack, it's not like you'll be left defenseless because you can still leave monsters on the board.

 

When an opponent's monster declares an attack: You can Special Summon this card from your hand in Attack Position, and if you do, negate the attack and shuffle that monster into the Deck.

 

Though I would have it as:

I'm of the view that LP costs aren't real costs, though do keep in mind I never said that the card needed a cost, only that it was costless. Well, it is probably appropriate enough. 1000 LP for a slow-ish removal isn't so bad. The hard OPT clause was probably a good call (unless it was there before and I didn't pick up on it).
