Worried about 2nd effect being abuse-ready "You can banish this card from GY; draw 2, discard 1", because sending it there by making it get destroyed is a slow process, but discarding it -- for many reasons, including One for One, or just Linking many things away in a long combo? And it's a more multi-purpose Level and Attribute than Ipiria? I'm not skilled enough to fully explain why Firewall Dragon is a problem, but I've lost against it several times and this is reminding me of such cards used against me.

I have both Ipiria and Cardcar D. Even when I first got them, they were never game-changing but useful - they had restrictions to make them balanced.

My versions are these:

Giftwrapped Mimic V1 (like Cardcar D)

FLIP: Target up to 2 cards your opponent controls; destroy the targeted cards, then, your opponent draws 1 card.
During your Main Phase 2: You can banish this card from your GY; draw 2 cards, then, discard 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Giftwrapped Mimic" once per turn.
ATK/100 DEF/2100

Giftwrapped Mimic V2 (My preferred effect based on Card name/design)

FLIP: Target up to 2 cards your opponent controls; destroy the targeted cards, then, your opponent draws 1 card.
During your Main Phase: You can banish this card from your GY; draw 2 cards, then, your opponent draws 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Giftwrapped Mimic" once per turn.
ATK/100 DEF/2100

Giftwrapped Mimic V3 (like Crush Card Virus)

FLIP: Target up to 2 cards your opponent controls; destroy the targeted cards, then, your opponent draws 1 card.
During your Main Phase: You can banish this card from your GY; your opponent takes no Battle Damage until the End Phase of this effect was activated, also, draw 2 cards, then, discard 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Giftwrapped Mimic" once per turn.

I realized that this effect may be MORE abuse-ready and that part of my comment might sound dumb. Opponent should draw two cards or the card the player has should be banished instead of discarded like in original effect.
