Yeah, you're allowed to post an errata of the existing God cards in Advanced. Probably should make that part clear in the section rules, even though it's noted in the section marked "erratas".

Fixed most of the issues I had with the cards, though I still don't know why you left it being unable to attack for the second effect. However, making it SS'd is a begging for problems, as it's A, more likely to be prevented by floodgates like Vanity's, or B) make it a lot easier to summon Horakthy, also you can no longer revive it with Monster Reborn for some fun stuff. On the second effect however, two tributes is a steep cost, and I hate to say it, but Arcana Force XXI - The World would be a better two tribute effect you'd want to pull off at this point. I'm also a bit leery about the removal of being unable to activate cards in response this card's summon, as while it allows you to use Precious Cards from Beyond, it also means it's vulnerable to some other gimmicky stuff.

 

Edit: oh wow, didn't notice you could tribute from hand. This actually might make it pretty good for hieratics.

ok...

 

Special Summon instead being Normal: it does lessen this card investment effort a bit. at worst you can special summon 2 monster (which is easy in this day and age in almost any deck) and then normal summon 1 monster to be used as tribute. but it also kinda pointless for a same reason. i mean this is age of pendulum... summoning 3 monster is equally easy. some would argue that summoning obelisk in deck other than Qli is Bad idea but the way i see it all pendulum in general is equally capable of 3 tribute offering feat, so i don't see much merit on this. it kinda lose its aesthetic value too since the this particular special way of normal summoning has the charm that we for so long admit to be "godlike".

 

cannot be destroyed by card effect: its meh immunity in comparative of boss monsters we have today. god cards deserve equal or better. at minimum, exact copy-pasted effect of Apoqliphort Killer (I'll neva gona call it towwa!!) is in my opinion a perfect example of how all Egypthian god should be

 

Destruction effect is triggered by also tributing monster in hand: i'm actually kinda like this one. sure is equally redundant as SS procedure due to pendulums, but since you convert the requirement to other possible source. the remaining 2 of your Pendulum Summoned monster can be keep for additional field advantage or even can be use in multi-normal summon shenanigan to summon another god.

- Removed the SS restriction, but added a return it to your hand restriction when it's SS'ed from your Graveyard.

 

- Changed the last effect's restriction from "This card cannot attack" to "This card cannot attack directly".

Bump

[Abdelrahman]

Added "When Special Summoned, cards and effects cannot be activated." to its effect.

[Abdelrahman]

Removed the restriction where it returns to your hand during the End Phase when Special Summoned from your Graveyard.

Bump.
