Mischief of the Gnomes →Used Deck

A card that lowers the level of monsters in each player's hand. You can lower the level by 2 at once, or you can lower the level once over 2 turns, so you can use it flexibly.
As usual with level change effects, it can interfere with Synchro and Xyz. However, in the case of this card, it can only interfere with the hand, so if material monsters are procured from the Deck or GY, it cannot be stopped, and in modern times, link summoning can be used to deceive it to some extent.
Basically, it's best to use it for your own combo, and if it works well, you can use it to interfere with your opponent.

Compared to Yokai, this one affects your hand.
If you target yourself, it's no cost compared to Cost Down, which has a similar effect, but it only lowers 1, so it's a trap, so it doesn't have a quick attack.
However, unlike youkai, he can be used immediately after going to GY. Activated on the field, he can be lowered by 2 if activated with GY, and it is possible to interfere with the effects that are activated during Tribute Summon such as Monarch.
It's an interesting effect, but due to the current link environment, it doesn't really depend on the level, and it's highly dependent on combos and opponents, so I think the deck that can be active is a little narrow.

It's a pretty tricky card. There are quite a lot of ways to use it, such as being able to interfere with Xyz and reducing the release of high-level monsters. The key is to find out when to use it.

A card that has both harassment and release reduction effects for the Xyz theme. Since it can be used twice in one turn, which is rare for a GY activation card, it can be used to downgrade a highest-level monster to a high-level monster, so it seems like something interesting can be done.

I used it to interfere with my opponent and summon high-level monsters without releasing them. Above all, it is wonderful that he can activate the effect even on the turn sent to GY. It depends on the opponent's deck, but it's hard to judge interference, so it might be better to consider it as a bonus when throwing in a deck. This is a card that you definitely want to put in a Deck that wants to Normal Summon high-level monsters. Illustrations are also good.

For a moment, I thought it was an effect that scrapes the opponent's hand, but
Well, it's a guy who messes with levels
It is interesting that it can be used twice.
simply used to interfere with the opponent
It's a classic, but you can lower the level of advanced monsters in your hand, and he's in an environment where level matters a lot.
I like illustrations

Unlike "Mischief of the Yokai", it doesn't really become meta. With Qliphort, you can stop the hand trigger at the very limit of your level...? do not have
In terms of whether or not it will be a ritual meta, the Ritual Deck looks like it's going to be a ritual from the hand with the cost extracted from the field, so at first glance it seems like it's going to be a meta.
Gishki starts with the all-purpose Vision and Shadow. The Ghastkrake and Hieratic Dragon in your hand will both be lowered in level, so even a Holy Gishki is fine.
Nekroz boasts subtle meta performance against Kaleidoscope and Rebellion (cost from hand), but in the end there is Shlit who has an all-purpose cost.
The cost of Odd-Eyes is basically p and the Ops fly over and over again, so it seems inconvenient that the level of the Ritual Ops in your hand goes down and the Ops on the field becomes level 7, but Odd- It doesn't matter so much because he rituals from GY in the Eyes addend
Sacrifice smiles with ease
If you try to use it seriously, it's a trap and it's not permanent, so you can't use it as a main axis. However, with the Legendary City Atlantis Deck, he can use the (2) effect even on the turn he falls to GY, so he can Normal Summon level 7.

I think this is strong against rank 4 environments. It looks like Cost Down that can be used as a trap

A level-down card in your hand.
It can also be used from GY, and it can be used again even on the turn that fell to GY, so you can drop 2 levels at once and put out advanced without releasing.
Tricky funny card.

A card that can activate the exact same effect twice on the field and GY is quite rare.
What you can do is level control all the cards in your hand. You can use it to reduce your own release materials, or you can use it to interfere with Synchro and Xyz Summons by using it in conjunction with the deployment from the opponent's hand.
There is no limit on the number of turns or his GY sending limit, so you can lower it by two in one turn, but it's a bit of a waste.

Compared to youkai, it is difficult to interfere with Xyz and Synchro unless you read the opponent's hand, and it is difficult to use against GY and items that come out of the deck, but it is possible to make it easier to show your advanced level and read well. Ikebana rituals (especially 《Advanced Ritual Art》) are also superior in that they can be interrupted. If you read through it and get stabbed twice, it will be a pretty effective hit.

A must-have for fans of ANS decks, etc. In particular, it will be easier to develop in the Fisherman category. Even in the bass blurring category, it may be possible to insert it with assistance because it changes to level 5.
