Oh.  Oh gosh no.  This card is an instant ban.  This - even for a casual game - is absolutely broken.  There's a ton of cards that can send stuff to the GY and this turns all of them into free monsters on the field.  Even if you actually do want them in the GY, you can just Link them away and get a Link monster on top of anything you were planning to do anyway.

This gets way more busted when you look at archetypes that actively like to dump monsters with card effects (Zombies, Lightsworns, Dark Worlds, Fire Kings, Sylvans, almost every Fusion Deck, etc, etc. and those are the non-meta decks!).

There's just... a lot that this card can do.  I really can't put it into words.

I had a feeling the card was broken but I had to make it anyway just to get it out of my head.

Fair enough.

Oh, I also just noticed this was in Multiples.  Did you intend to make this alongside something else?

Hmmm an edit is possible depending on what the deck is meant to do.

For example: We all know all the above mentioned decks have a tun of support to get the monsters to the GY via Fusion Spells, Ritual Spells, Lightsworns, Sylvans, Shaddolls, Mathematician, Armageddon, Foolish, Atlanteans, Dark World Dealings, etc... basically, it's all monsters and Spells mixed for all those engines.
If your support for this (currently) hypothetical "underworld" archetype made the GY sending via something more narrow or unusual, you could get away with this card so long as this card follows that same unexplored avenue.

Be it "milled by an Xyz/Ritual Monster/ effect" or via a network of Traps that do the lifting (or in this case, dumping). 
Though I think it'd still probably need a "once per turn" clause or something else, even with a technical nerf like that.

Even if it were Spells, iirc, there's no equips or quick plays that mill normally....

Just throwing ideas...
