Activate this card when your opponent attacks a Fiend, Insect, Spellcaster, Zombie or Plant-type Monster you control: negate the attack and destroy the attacking monster; add 1 monster from your Graveyard to your hand with a Level equal to or lower than the destroyed monster.
Meh, alright. It worries me slightly, but not enough for me to make a scene.

Gregorian Witchsteel Necklace
Spell/Equip
The equipped monster can attack your opponent directly if they do not control a Fiend or Spellcaster-type Monster. If your opponent controls a face-up Fiend or Spellcaster-type Monster, this card's ATK is increased by 1000.
Direct attacks no matter what the ATK is? ehh....

Astral Guillotine
Trap/Normal
Pay 600 Life Points: Negate the attack of an opponent's monster and destroy it. You can activate this card while in the Graveyard by paying 1000 Life Points.
Wow, endless sakuretsus. I don't know if 1000 is enough since this can completely shut down several decks.

Ultrasonic Storm of Rejection
Trap/Continuous
Effect Monsters are returned to their owner's hands during the End Phase of the turn they are Summoned.
hmmmm idk

Efficient Gravekeeping
Spell/Continuous
When a Monster is sent to the Graveyard, the owner of that monster takes damage equal to the sent monster's ATK.
This makes mill decks burn like crazy. I object.

Batswarm Scourge
Spell/Normal
Pay 500 Life Points: Select 1 face-up Spell or Trap Card and 1 Monster and return them to their owner's hands. You can activate this card while in the Graveyard by paying 1000 Life Points.
This is quite cool with continuous stuff. I like this.

[Rock] Death comes too soon for those who wish not to die, and comes too late for those who desire it. To keep the hourglass of death moving at it's intended base, it was given a master to watch over it, and bring death to every edge of the world within it's intended times.
I don't intend to make lore better than this

Efficient Gravekeeping
Spell/Continuous
Up to 3 times per turn, when a Monster is sent to the Graveyard, the owner of that monster takes damage equal to half the sent monster's ATK.

since a ton of main monsters are weenies, it could be kinda weak. maybe more side-deck material or used in mill (if it gets decent cards)

vanilla chaos stun woo

The equipped monster can attack your opponent directly if the opponent does not control a DARK Monster or Fiend or Spellcaster-type Monster. If your opponent controls a DARK Monster or a Fiend-type or Spellcaster-type Monster, the equipped monster must attack.

So your fine with Burn decks like BDD LV, and trap burn, along with Normal Decks and Gemini Decks getting probibly there best support card ever. Also the fact that you can bounce Trap, Spell deactivators back along with Stirx back to your hand able to keep negating anything every turn. But It's a terribad card. Granted most decks can't use this but all can benifit in some manner reguardless what deck it is. Hell even Pierrot decks can benifit.

How competitively viable do you really think this card is? It doesn't do anything except bounce. In your starting argument, you didn't mention that it would benefit any decks, only that it would shut them down, and bounce really doesn't do that except for decks that are Extra Deck relient. Now your current argument states that this card helps decks by providing tempo. Forgive me for failing to see the connection, but Normal Monster decks aren't really competitively viable whilst Gemini decks would need to reset each turn thus preventing them from abusing this card. Yeah, you can bounce Deactivators back to your hand each turn, but how exactly again, is that viable? The idea is that you would only need to bounce them back to hand if you've already taken care of the cards they were previously targeting which kinda negates the whole point of deactivation in the first place. Unless deactivators are inherently broken in providing card advantage, you're usually make 1 for 1 trade-offs with other cards meaning you haven't really advanced the state of game to anyone's favor, only changed the state for more stalling. And again, unless stall is able to continuously generate advantage with cards that grant you 1-for-1 trade-offs and burn or some other form of win condition, thus being inherently broken, I still fail to see how this card benefits them... But if you can make a deck that wins consistently using this card to further its win condition, then I'll retract everything I've said.
