Duel Links fodder at best, and even there it's pretty trash. Of all the legacy-monsters-into-archetypes, I'm curious on why can't they seem to get Gaia/BLS to work?

Hmmm what would happen to something like Uria for example? Its effect is that it gains 1000 ATK x Continuous Traps in GY. If all that amount is suddenly its original ATK, then its effect would not cease to be live, right? Same thing for Gren Maju. I have the feeling it'll just stay frown in there forever, but just in case.

At the very least the newest Gaia Champion's 5200 ATK or more becomes the base, and you then can have the effects kick in with 10400+ ATK, but usually it kinda OTKs anyways so this might not really do too much there. 

It salvages Equip boosts xD

I do dig the double Tribute thing. It should probably carry an Extra Normal effect for Gaias, then it'd help the deck walk a little more under floodgates.... if it didn't require the discard or itself to be Special'd, it'd cover the niche, but currently seems redundant looking at how the Gaia monsters just drop themselves to the field already.....
