Its effect is kind of over powered tbh.

 

Must be Fusion Summoned with at least 1 DARK Fusion Monster as a Fusion Material and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card is Fusion Summoned you can equip 1 monster your opponent controls to this card ( You can only equip 1 monster to this card ), This card gains half that monster's ATK and its effects. Once per turn except during the turn this card is Fusion Summoned, You can equip 1 monster your opponent controls to this card as long as this card has no equipped monsters to it, This card gains half that monster's ATK. When this card is destroyed, You can Special Summon 1 "Starve Venom Fusion Dragon" from your Graveyard to your side of the field. You can only use the effect of "Des Venom Fusion Dragon" once per turn

 

This effect is more balanced IMO.

Why do you think your suggested fix makes the card better? You at least need to explain why you're making this change.

But yeah, as this card is now, you can effectively steal 2 monsters on its summoning turn (one on its Fusion Summon, and another right after). I mean, summoning Starve Venom in the first place is going to take some effort given that you need its mats on the field, but stuff like Norden and the like exist to give you the other one. Oh right, do note that you can use ANY DARK Fusion monster for this card's summon, not just Starve Venom.

 

Flavor-wise, this should be a mandatory requirement in its materials (yeah, Crystal Wing doesn't say this explicitly, but definitely DARK Dragon-Type Fusion (or Level 8 or higher; this closes off the Instant Fusion targets that would otherwise qualify).

 

As far as Yuri.dek goes, we don't know if they'll get other Fusions to facilitate a hypothetical evolution of SVFD with these conditions, but I'm not really comfortable with this sucking up two monsters on that turn (every other turn is fine). It requires at least 4-5 cards commitment to even bring out (2-3 for Starve or whatever DARK Fusion itself, and likely the same amount for the other part), yes, but at the end of the day, this card amounts to a mass D-HERO Plasma (despite having limitations on what it can snag though on the second). It still does nothing against Xyz (outside of its initial Fusion Summon).

 

-----

It's probably fine, given the effort required to even make Fusions, but still skeptical about its capabilities in mass stealing monsters (first effect is pretty much a combination of OG Starve's effects, and that's strong already).

Made the following edits.

 

* Made it so the DARK Fusion has to be Level 6 or higher (outside of instant Fusion Range)

* Made it so its once per turn effect cannot be used during the turn it was summoned.

[Abdelrahman]

Its better now but maybe you should make it so this card can only have one monster equipped at a time
