Preposterous

[Normal Spell]

Your opponent declares a card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap). Each player excavate cards from the top of their Deck until they excavate a card that shares the declared card type, then each player adds their last excavated card to their hand and banish the remaining excavated cards, face-down. If a player(s) did not excavate a card of the declared card type, each of those players banish all the excavated cards, face-down. You can only activate 1 "Preposterous" per turn.

At first I thought this was no good because one could easily banish tons of cards from the opponent's deck by calling its least common card, and potentially lead to a deckout if neither player has the declared type. For instance, most decks nowadays run a couple of Traps, if at all, so that would be safe card type to call; the exception of course are backrow-heavy decks like Paleozoics and Traptrix, but in those instances you call for Spells instead. However, by re-reading I noticed that it's the opponent who makes the calls, which means the card is not as drastic since it should be expected for the opponent to call the most common card type in its deck to minimize the mill damage. I would say the risk is then reversed because if it happens to call your least common card type then it's you who is getting the most mills, but then I think that if you are playing this you better run a balanced number of monsters, Spells and Traps.
