It has less ATK and it's a "Once Per Turn" effect.

I could care less about the ATK decrease, but the "Once per turn" clause does give it more balance. Too bad that'll never happen, though.

It's a tribute monster

I think he just forgot to throw in the "/Synchro/" part, or just figured that we would know that it's still a Synchro.

OT: The "once per turn" clause does balance it, somewhat. Still, even the original Brionac would only need to use its effect once to cause significant damage.

[Resident Fascist]

It's a Synch, still.

It can't be summoned because you didn't give it materials?

Materials are the same

Well with the new materials it's fine.

Yes, it's balanced now. But at the same time, borderline unplayable.

[Bahamut - Envoy of the End]

Restraining archtype bosses to only be playable in their archtype.

Fantastic.

Tbh, just changing the summoning requirements to 1 WATER Tuner orno-Tuner or something would have been enough before once per turn etc.

Brionac is still a OTK machine.
I might make it generic, thoughts?

It's an OTK machine because it constantly recycles any cards on the field as many times per tern as you want.

This just lets you go for the attack if you can risk the loss of hand advantage.
