Pros

Negate and destroys.
It can negate almost anything if Sanctuary in the Sky is on the field.

Cons

Can only be activated if The Sanctuary in the Sky is face-up on the field.
Weak to high attack normal monster since it can't negate a monster summon.

Tips

Zeradias, Herald of Heaven

Planet Pathfinder

If The Sanctuary in the Sky is an important card in your deck, you can essentially bring more than 3 copies in the deck by bringing Zeradias since it can help search for the field spell. Same with Planet Pathfinder except you need to use your normal summon and tribute it on the field to use its effect.

Counter Trap support

Here are some other monsters whose effects activate and/or trigger when you activate counter trap cards. They can be used together in a deck centered around activating counter trap cards and then triggering monster effects to get the best possible value out of them.

Yep, it's a cool card but sanctuary in the sky is not a very consistent deck right now. If your field dies this counter becomes useless, no field protection.

Well one situation was yesterday against fur hires where I tried to use this card to counter wiz's effect but I wasn't prompted to activate this card. Before you ask I'm 100% sure this happened the turn after I initially placed my divine punishment.

Counter Traps won't negate continuous effects of monsters, for example black veloci can't be negated by this.

This 🔥 is bugged with Gladiator Beast. When their effect is activated and i use Divine Punishment, they arent destroyed, just simply shuffled into the deck...very annoying!

Ok guys, but when GB monster on the field and they attacked or was attacked, their effect is activated at that point(!), and after this, they shuffle into the deck, summon another monster, etc.
So they are on the field when their effect activated. And who said its a cost? The card dont say that. And if its a cost, the "cost" activated because of the card effect.
So i dont understand why it matte

So i dont understand why it matters if they are on the field or in the deck, because Divine Punishment clearly say if the card effect is negated, the card is destroyed. From the field or from the deck GB monsters need to go into the graveyard.
I think its a bug that the effect is negate but the destroy isnt happen.

The card does say it's a cost (that's why there's a semi-colon between the return and the Summon). But like I said, once it leaves the place it activates, it's no longer considered the same card. Since the card whose effect was activated no longer exists as far as the game's concerned, it's not destroyed.

I guess an easier example of how to prove it's no longer the same card is this: You activate the effect of Fishborg Planter in your Graveyard, and don't hit a WATER monster. The effect can only be used once. But if you banish it from your Graveyard, then return it to the Graveyard, you can use the effect again because the game considers it a different card.

ty for the clarification, well SSA still really hard to beat then i thought this card will like counter SSA in the meta.

IM GONNA SAY IT AGAIN... ANTI MAGIC ARROWS CAN COUNTER SSA DURING THE BATTLE PHASE. JUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE A MONSTER STRONG ENOUGH TO BEAT YOUR OPPONENTS MONSTER, AND USE AMA DURING THE BATTLE PHASE.

Man, this is what makes me hate farming events so much. I had the same luck with Zayne's event for Cybernetic fusion support or whatever it's called. I got 13 copies of his go to monster but only one of that spell card
