Ren’s Ace Card finally has its OCG effects revealed, which attempt to duplicate its two monster-in-one nature!

YA04-JP001 白闘気双頭神龍 White Aura Biphamet
Level 10 WATER Fish-Type Synchro Effect Monster
ATK 3300
DEF 3000
Synchro Materials: 1 Tuner Synchro Monster + 1+ Non-Tuner Monsters
(1) When this card is Synchro Summoned during your turn: You can Special Summon 1 “Divine Dragon Token” (Fish/WATER/Level 10/ATK 3300/DEF 3000) in Defense Position.
(2) Once per turn, during your opponent’s turn, if you control no Tokens (Quick Effect): You can Special Summon 1 “Divine Dragon Token”.
(3) If this card in its owner’s possession is destroyed by an opponent’s card effect and sent to the Graveyard, and you control a “Divine Dragon Token”: You can Special Summon this card in Defense Position.

(Atem’s edit note:
although this card’s magazine reveal text is writ to activate effect (3) if destroyed in owner possession, it might as well just be writ to work if destroyed in owner control.
This is because the cards in your possession are cards you control, cards in your hand, cards in your Main Deck, cards in your Extra Deck, cards you are currently Summoning, cards attached to monsters you control as Xyz Material, your banished cards, and cards in your GY, et al.
This card can’t exist in your hand or Main Deck, and it can’t be destroyed while it is in the GY, banished, or attached to something as Xyz Material, because destruction doesn’t happen to cards in the GY, banished cards, or attached Xyz Material.
If it is destroyed by an opponent’s card effect while in your Extra Deck, or while it is being Summoned, then it can’t Special Summon itself from the Graveyard, b/c it wasn’t SynchroSummoned first.
That leaves one legal circumstance for activating effect (3) – the card being destroyed while its owner controls it.)

The cover of Volume 4 is Yuto and I believe Dark Anthelion Dragon
