[spoiler='for those who don't know about the "celtic guard" monsters already in the game']

 

[/spoiler]

 

My additions:

 

 

Once per turn this card cannot be destroyed.

 

 

The effect of "Celtic Guard" can only be used once per turn. When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard: Activate 1 of these effects.
*Add 1 "Celtic Guard" monster from your deck to your hand, except "Celtic Guard Signaler".
*Shuffle 1 "Celtic Guard" monster from your graveyard into the deck; add 1 Warrior-Type monster with 1500 or less ATK from your deck to your hand, except "Celtic Guard Signaler".

 

 

When this card attacks or is attacked, it gains 600 ATK and DEF during the damage step only.

 

re: "why didn't you just make him a 2000/1800 vanilla?" His purpose is to be a beat stick while still qualifying for all the support the others get.

 

 

While you control another "Celtic Guard" monster with a different name, your opponent cannot target this card for attacks. When this card declares an attack: you can change the battle position of the attack target (flip effects are not activated by this). If this card attacks an opponent's monster, it gains 600 ATK during the Damage Step only.

 

 

2 level 4 Warrior-Type monsters
You can only use the effect of "Celtic Guard Paladin" once per turn. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then reveal 1 "Celtic Guard" monster in your hand or shuffle 1 "Celtic Guard" monster from your graveyard into the deck, then activate 1 of these effects. *Add 1 level 4 or lower Warrior-Type monster with 1500 or less ATK from your Deck to your hand. *Special summon 1 level 4 or lower Warrior-Type monster with 1500 or less ATK from your hand or graveyard.

 

^ edited to require other "celtic guard" monsters for his effect to work

Rulings notes:

- You can shuffle the monster you just detached for the cost of his effect.

 

 

When a face-up "Celtic Guard" monster(s) you control is targeted by the effect of an opponent's monster or targeted for an attack by an opponent's monster: Negate the effect/attack of that opponent's monster, and if you do, destroy it, then inflict damage to your opponent equal to the destroyed monster's ATK or DEF in the Graveyard (whichever is higher).
