Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must be Special Summoned from your hand by having exactly 4 banished DARK monsters (and no other cards). During your Main Phase: You can banish 2 DARK monsters from your Graveyard; send 2 random cards from your opponent's hand to the Graveyard (or their entire hand, if less than 2). Those cards' effects are negated while in the Graveyard (even if this card leaves the field). This effect of "Dark Saber - Gottoms" can only be activated once per turn.

 

To be honest, I'm not sure how difficult this card's Summoning Condition really is. Having exactly 4 banished DARK monsters does not seem to be very difficult especially when you consider Allure of Darkness being at 3 and other DARK monster cards that banish themselves (ex. Plaguespreader Zombie). I expect this card to see play in Dark Synchro and Phantom Knight Decks since they seem to be able to fulfill this card's Summoning Condition pretty easily.

 

Note that unlike the original version (XX-Saber Gottoms), this card's effect has a 'hard' once per turn restriction since this prevents you from just simply discarding your opponent's entire hand using just this card alone.

 

Please let me know what you guys think! :)
