Lore:

2 Level 6 Zombie Monsters

During either players turn, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; Zombie Monsters you control are unaffected by other card effects until the End Phase. When this card is removed from the field, add 1 of your banished Zombie Monsters to your Hand

 

Thoughts on this new card. Wasn't sure with the rank so just put it at 6 since there are a few ways to make level 6 zombies. Feedback always welcome

I'm not clear how easily Zombies can put out Rank 6. Rank 5, I can see Vampires do so.

Rank 6 is easily accessible if you use the Tristan and Isolde engine (Well, Zombie-Type ones are at least).

 

About the card itself... I can't really decide how good or bad it would be. The protection effect is certainly very powerful, making itself into a 2700 beater that is immune to any common removal except battle, along with giving that same protection to all your other Zombies.

Returning a banished Zombie-Type to the hand seems somewhat abusable, as there is no once per turn or restriction on it having Xyz Material or whatever, so you can simply summon this card from your Graveyard by banishing Mezuki, and when it dies you can just recycle the Mezuki you banished, meaning that as long as you have a way to get Mezuki from your hand to the Graveyard easily and Underworld Zombie Dragon goes to the Graveyard, you can simply loop those again and again.

 

I'm tempted to say it's overpowered, although I honestly don't have much experience playing a Zombie-Type deck, so I will leave that judgement to somebody that does. However, I would at least add a 'hard' once per turn on the return a banished Zombie-Type to the hand effect, to kill any potential loops.
