Backup Guardian [Written, Anime Adaptation Card]

In other words, the only reason Rafael was able to get anywhere with freaking Guardians. So, here it is, made into something functional.

 

Backup Guardian

EARTH - Level 4 - Warrior/Effect - 800/2200

If you control no monsters, you can Special Summon this monster from your hand. If there are no monsters in your Graveyard, except "Backup Guardian", you can Special Summon this monster from your Graveyard, and if you do, you can equip 1 "Wicked-Breaking Flamberge - Baou", "Gravity Axe - Grarl", "Twin Swords of Flashing Light - Tryce", "Butterfly Dagger - Elma", "Rod of Silence - Kay'est", or "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal" from your Deck to this monster (you can only activate this effect of "Backup Guardian" once per turn). Equip Spell Cards you control are unaffected by your opponent's card effects. During either player's turn, you can equip 1 Equip Spell Card on the field to an appropriate monster on the field. You can only control 1"Backup Guardian".

This really needs a hard OPT in its second effect, otherwise it's asking to be abused by Rank4s. I mean, on first turn, Special Summon it, make something like, let's say, King of Feral Imps or Zoodiac Bullhorn with this and another Level4, detach it for their effects, and Special Summon it with its own effect to follow up with Rank4s. Plus you get a free Equip Spell in the process that you can swap to the Rank4 you already control before using this guy for a Rank4.

Fixed.

Bump, for when YCM gets its sheet together.
