Forum:Unicore should join Nekroz of Brionac as Semi-Limited

To put it simply, Nekroz of Unicore is too damn versatile to be at 3. First off, the fact that you can bring it out by using Nekroz Kaleidoscope and sending Herald of the Arc Light to the Graveyard is unbelievably convenient. In my opinion, that play itself is reason enough to hit at least one of those three cards. In addition, being able to discard it to bring ANY Nekroz card in your Graveyard back to your hand is completely ridiculous. The ability to search out any cards from the deck on a whim with Brionac and Clausolas is more than enough. Notice how I haven't even gotten to what happens when it hits the field.

In Yugioh, most monsters have a fairly balanced and consistent relationship between their ATK/DEF, and the "tier" of their effects, barring the necessary exception of Boss Monsters. For example, Malefic monsters have enormous ATK, but their effects do a good job of restricting their viability. Now, I fully understand that as the game ages, more and more powerful cards must be released, in order to make people buy them. However, that does not excuse Nekroz of Unicore. For a monster that can hit the field at any time, essentially cost-free, 2300 ATK on top of THAT effect is quite simply too much. Out of the three big Boss Cards of the current Metagame, Dante, Shaddoll Construct, and Apoqliphort Towers, Unicore can shut two of them down in an instant. Absolutely preposterous.

Summing Up: -Way too versatile -Too strong for its effect -An excellent card in a deck already full of excellent cards
