If one of the 2 banished monsters on either side of the field cannot be Special Summoned, then this card won't be usable.
For example, if your opponent Special Summoned Stardust Dragon with Starlight Road, then you banished it, Stardust Dragon cannot be Special Summoned back with this card because it was never Synchro Summoned properly.
Most of the time it's just a worse lizard, since lizard fetch from the deck, and also is a photon. orbital only fetch from the grave so he needs setup, but he could fetch GEPD.

This. But the main problem with this card is, that you can target extra deck monsters. So it's possible that you would target 3 extra deck monsters and then you wouldn't be able to draw 2 cards anymore. This makes it impossible to activate when your deck has less than 2 cards.
lets see:-
tribute lamb token for no cost.
opponent discard 1 spell to activated 1 spell.
out of 6 spell only 3 can be play.
lightsworn engine in trouble
This is R at best, N is fine for it.
It's a Trap card, so it's slow, plus it requires you to destroy something in battle first to revive a Synchro Summoned T.G. Synchro in your Graveyard.
If this card summons from Extra Deck and treats it as a Synchro Summon then it would have been SR maybe.
Floodgate doesnt target. Lets see:
-It only protects dark monsters.
-It has to be face up (laughable attack)
-Rock type...
-No protection from effects
-If your opponent has no targeting spell/traps (eg thunder dragons) its a defensive vanilla
In yugioh if a card doesnt offer immediate advantage or a really good effect is bad. Offence in yugioh is always better than deffense.
summon 100 times deck.
Volcanic Doomfire, Aromage Jasmine×2, Valkyrie Zweite, Mist Valley Shaman, Ledger of Legerdemain×2, Blaze Accelerator, Tri-Blaze Accelerator×2, Recycle, Aroma Garden×2, Gift Exchange×2, Spirit Barrier, Jar of Greed×2, Graceful Tear×2, Localized Tornado
prepare: use Jasmine to mill the deck, and use Gift Exchange and Graceful Tear to give Localized Tornado and Spirit Barrier to the opponent. At final stage, we have Valkyrie, Shaman and Recycle on board, Tri-Blaze, Blaze and Doomfire at hand. Deck has only one card.
routine: Activate Blaze, Activate Tri-Blaze, Special summon Doomfire, Use Shaman to return Doomfire to hand, Valkyrie attack, Activate Valkyrie to return Tri-Blaze from GY to hand, End turn.When it's my next turn, at stand-by phase, use Recycle to return Blaze from GY to deck.
Ironically I sometimes need this to get over blue eyes’s attack with dark magician. Please take this off the limit list lol I give something to powercreep this @@@in dragons
This skill has only 3 niches now:
1) You don't have Spore and/or AFD and still want to use them
2) You want to have 4 or 5 copies of Spore in your deck (for whatever reason)
3) You want to have 4 copies of AFD in your Extra deck (for whatever reason)
