With minimal setup this card shuts down the litany of monsters in the game that cannot Special Summon themselves. Some of the better staples in the game are low Level and either have to be Normal Summoned or are difficult to Special Summon, shutting those down too. It can also be used on your turn if your opponent summons something with high ATK, weakening it for your beaters or giving a target for your destruction or removal effects.
Well the trigger is a normal summon. So I don’t see that happening on your turn.
I’m a little surprised it’s not generic, but it’s not bad at all (especially now that Normal Summon has become more important and a priority to stop for some Decks)
In the future, I suppose we’ll get some Monster that allows us to recover those The☆Backrow.
It could’ve been better if it also worked against special summoned monsters
it couldve been better if *remove balancing factor*
The wording of this card opens up the floodgates for normal summoning 2 or more monsters simultaneously
