It's not complete yet . . .

After you Tribute face-down opponent monster, where it goes? Your field? or opponent field?

It is complete. If it doesn't specify where it goes, it's automatically Summoned to your side of the field.

[Kanashimi]

Oh okay, but at least specify on it's effects. (where it goes)

The way it is now is pretty weak, though the way it is worded as long as your opponent has any set card you can summon it in defense. Also do you intend for it to be summoned by other methods afterwards as with it's stats and will only ever be summoned once is pretty bad. Either increase it's ATK or DEF a bit, or give it another effect and actually show whether or not is a nomi or semi-nomi by adding in either "Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Cannot be Special Summoned expect by Tributing 1 face-down card your opponent controls." Or "Cannot not be Normal Summoned/Set. Must first be Special Summon by Tributing 1 face-down card your opponent controls."

Well it's effs already explains it (Thought it is not really clear) " . . . and cannot be Summoned by other ways"

He means cannot be Normal/Special/Flip Summon (Yes kind of weird for a Nomi, probably better with what you already said above with the green text)

Did you not read what I just said? If it's not specified on where its Summoned (ie something in the lines of Volcanic Queen / Lava Golem), then its Summoned TO YOUR SIDE OF THE FIELD.

This is a clever card. It's like a mix of Trap Eater + Lava Golem, and the perk of Tributing as cost for removal is nice. However, because of Kiryu's existence, Tributing Spell/Traps is a legit mechanic (or at least until it gets a reprint with an updated card text), so unless this card is intended to tribute Set Spell/Traps as well, it should specify only face-down/Set monsters.

 

Also, not sure of this but adding a nomi or semi-nomi clause like Trap Eater's may be more fair.

Hi. This card can tribute monsters, spells and traps.

Thanks.

Even though you can still NS or Set this card, you'd really only want to SS it by its own effect, since it's a sort-of-2-for-1, simultaneously giving a monster on the field and taking out a potential threat at the same time without the opponent being able to respond to their loss of the card at all.

 

You also won't use it in combat - just a way to put out a quick Xyz or Synchro.

 

I'm slightly uncomfortable by this, since most monsters that inherently eat the opponent's resources to Summon themselves are either very restrictive on what can be eaten (Trap Eater) or put themselves on the opponent's side of the field as a "refund" (Lava Golem, or any Kaiju). I would be completely fine with this card Special Summoning itself to the opponent's side of the field instead of to your side, just so you can trade a potential threat for a vulnerable spot to attack.
