Its materials have nothing to do with what can be attached to it

Grabbing 2 cards is fine considering its cost Issue was it was actually grabbing 3

This is the first time WATER wasn't good

That's a guaranteed free draw-1 every time you place it in the Pendulum Zone as long as you have something in ED/GY Edit: Just read the monster effects and they can both place it in the Pendulum Zone lol

Welcome to NCM

It seems impossible to tell whether the second effect is a Trigger Effect or Quick Effect by text alone, so take that part of my translation with a grain of salt Looks like it has to be distinguished via DB entry I think it's more likely to be a Trigger Effect though, following the recent Salamangreat Violet Chimera

I like that you can regrave your banished Orcusts with the second mode of the first effect Unfortunately it's overshadowed by the first mode beyond the first turn and they're HOPT and banished cards are fuel but whatever I like this kind of mechanic

Cyberse/Link/Effect LIGHT ATK 3000 LINK-4 (Left, Right, Bottom-Left, Bottom-Right) 2+ monsters that were Special Summoned from the Extra Deck While this Link Summoned card is on the field, your opponent cannot target this card with card effects, also your opponent's monsters cannot target monsters for attacks, except this one. Once per battle, if this card battles a Special Summoned monster, during damage calculation: You can have this card gain ATK equal to the ATK of that opponent's monster, during that damage calculation only. If this Link Summoned card in your possession is sent to your GY by your opponent's card: You can shuffle 1 card on the field into the Deck.

Machine/Xyz/Effect DARK Rank 8 ATK 2600 DEF 2100 2 Level 8 monsters You can also Xyz Summon this card by using an "Orcust" Link Monster you control as material. If this card is Special Summoned: You can activate 1 of these effects; ● Send 1 card your opponent controls to the GY. ● Attach 1 of your banished Machine monsters to this card as material. If a card(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can detach 1 material from this card instead. You can only Special Summon "Sheorcust Dingirsu(s)" once per turn.

I'm disagreeing with the guideline, not accusing you of forcing a rule Leave it be

Cards that don't exist don't have rulings. If you want to know more about a certain mechanic, ask a question pertaining to that mechanic (construct a scenario that can actually happen). Otherwise, you should make your own custom rulings for your custom cards where there is no precedent. You can strengthen your decision by asking questions here. I don't care about this; feel free to ask as many questions as you need as long as they're good questions. You should be much more wary about asking good, thoughtful questions rather than the number of questions you ask or how related they are to each other. Be mindful about taking in answers to your questions and take the time to learn the mechanics introduced to you by them. What's truly unappreciated is when a user asks a question about a certain mechanic and certain cards, only to come back later to ask the same question about the same mechanic, just with different cards. They've absorbed only the interaction, and are wasting time here by asking the same question multiple times in a row. Quantity of questions itself is not an issue.
