Nara-Narayana. the Duality of Existence

LIGHT / Level 10 / Fairy / Gemini / Effect

 

This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is a Normal Monster on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it become an Effect Monster with this effect.
● when this card is Normal Summoned: Destroy all cards your opponent control to Graveyard. additionally, if this face-up Tribute Summoned card is Normal Summoned, any card that  Destroyed and would sent to the Graveyard by this effect is Banished Face-down Instead. Level 7 or Higher  Gemini monster cannot be Targeted for opponent card effect. also Level 7 or Higher Normal Summoned Gemini monster cannot be Destroyed by opponent card effects.

 

ATK 3500 / DEF 3000

 

the aspect of Gemini monster is a powerful monster that need to be Normal Summoned twice to reach its full potential. which i think in in recent evolution of Gemini Monster that concept is kinda abandon. but its also understandable that if we going with this specific trope the Gemini as a card is considerably too slow for meta game to compete. but so far Konami design on these monster has been underwhelming against the effort and i think there still room for improvement of the mechanic.

 

one of the issue i want to brought up is the interaction of these monster with the aforementioned "Double Normal Summon" trope. in recent build Spark World enable this trope nicely. but i can't help but feel this is not a novel way how Geminis should be Summoned especially in regard of high level Gemini. i believe a Gemini Monster must have effects that worth its troubles but also justifying the proper Normal Summoned on both ends ( not via "cheat" like Special Summon instead the 1st Normal Summon, or Normal Summoned Without Tribute)
