When this card is Tribute Summoned, destroy all cards you control, except this card. This card gains 400 ATK for each card destroyed by this effect.
This thing is worse than Bag O' Bones. It needs to destroy a whopping nine cards to exceed WereLord. That's a -11, considering it also needs two Tributes. So yeah, a potential candidate for worst card in the game needs a buff. And I can't think of anything. Ideas, guys?

-reads this card's effect-

-immediately pukes-

It's name doesn't even fit either. What does blowing up all of your own cards have to do with Necromancy?

Regardless....

When this card is Tribute Summoned, destroy any number of cards on your side of the field. This card gains 1000 ATK and DEF for each card destroyed by this effect. If more than 5 cards are destroyed by this effect, destroy up to 2 cards on your opponent's side of the field. If more than 8 cards are destroyed by this effect, draw 2 cards.

Before you even dare say that "you can destroy 8 cards with this effect and it already has 8000 ATK and DEF, while wiping the field of two cards and drawing two cards" think about it. THats nowhere close to being overpowered. If you don't do that, then this will be a double tribute 0 ATK and DEF monster. or a 1000 - 3000 ATK monster.

And that's just my first effect, so if you don't like that suggestion we can go with a new one.

When this card is Tribute Summoned, destroy 3 cards on the field.

When this card is Tribute Summoned, destroy 1 card on your opponent's side of the field, and draw 1 card.

When this card is Tribute Summoned, remove from play all monsters in your opponent's Graveyard. During your Standby Phase, you can Special Summon 1 of your opponent's removed from play monsters.

When this card is Tribute Summoned, Special Summon 2 monsters from your opponent's Graveyard to either side of the field.

I agree the actual effect isn't of a necromancy but rather an imprisoned fiend beast or golem kind of effect

I think It be good as long it have an effect that is necromancy related such as bringing a monster from the grave. Somehow I think it would be DARK theme of resurrection.

bag o bones is awesome

Well, i think i like this one out of DH's the best:

"When this card is Tribute Summoned, Special Summon 2 monsters from your opponent's Graveyard to either side of the field."

Agree with scheath, it's more like necromancy, and there's some more strategy involved with it.

Gotta have more opinions before action can be taken D:

Should it be your own, or opponent's Grave? Anyone want to decide?

I want it to be either.

Gave it another little boost, now revives from either grave.
