Extra Trio

Spell

Can only be activated if you have at least 6 monsters in your ED. Banish 3 random facedown monsters from your ED faceup, then if you banished 3 or more monsters with the same name using "Extra Trio" perform the appropriate effect:

-Link, You can perform a Link Summon of 1 monster banished by the effect of "Extra Trio" using monsters from your hand and both sides of the field this turn.

-Fusion, You can Special Summon a Banished monsters ignoring its summoning conditions and draw 2 cards.

-Synchro, You can Special Summon a Tuner monster from your deck or GY and draw 2 cards, then you can special summon 1 monster with twice the level of that tuner from either GY.

-XYZ, You can special summon up to 4 monsters with the same level from either player's GY (you can use both GYs).

If this card is in your GY: You can shuffle 3 monsters each of different above types into your Extra deck from banished; add this card to you hand.

 

A little Janky but it is supposed to remember the cards banished by its effect. Please ask questions and I could use help with wording. I want each type to be once per duel and you can only activate one effect per turn.

So if I did my math correctly... with only 6 cards in the ED and 3 copies of 2 different monsters to maximize the chances of success, the chance of banishing 3 of the same card is 5% (0.5*0.4*0.25). The odds do not look good. I would suggest to make the effects stronger to compensate, but that's not my design style personally. If it's yours, that should be ok.

Actually a little off it should be 10% with only 6 cards in the ED and 3 copies of 2 different monsters since it doesn't mater what the first card is (0.4*0.25).

That is if it is only activated once, it can be activated multiple times by shuffling cards back or using multiple copies.

I also meant to say "3 or more" not just 3 because it is supposed to remember names.

Also maybe some ED monsters like to be banished? idk

Oh, right, it starts counting after the first card. Not sure what you mean with activating multiple copies and "remembering" the banished monsters. If I understand correctly, then I believe you would need a wording for the Spell Card globally, so to speak. Not sure how to explain it better but something like this comes to mind:
Banish 3 random face-down monsters from your Extra Deck face-up, then, if 3 cards with the same name have been banished by the effect of "Extra Trio", apply 1 of the following effects, depending on the monster Type (Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Link) of that card.
