Isn't this card a little over Powered ? 

To answer your question: It's not overpowered at all and I'll explain why.

It requires 3 different monsters to be summoned. It's a lot of monsters being used to go into 1 Synchro that doesn't have a negate or combo/resurrection/OTK effects.

Its first effect requires a Battle Phase, which is dead on arrival if you've summoned it on the first turn. It is indeed powerful entering your Battle Phase and board wiping your opponent, but it's easily chained by counters that people use nowadays that it won't be able to attack or summon it in the first place. Your opponent flips a Book of Moon on it when you summon it or you declare the Battle Phase and that's the end of that.

You'd might as well use "Evenly Matched" in this case, because it requires only 1 card that has a better removal effect (banish face-down), all at the cost of you losing your Battle Phase, which is better than risking a Summon to do a weaker effect. You'd still have 5 cards in your hand in your Main Phase 2, instead of a lot less, and just set up a negation board after that.

Its second effect isn't even all that powerful as well, only stopping it from being destroyed once per turn (by battle or card effect). It does not stop it from being banished, tributed, returned to the hand, or flipped face-down (Book of Moon and Eclipse are great counters).

Sure, the "These effects cannot be negated" part is annoying, but it's is still easily countered, as I stated earlier.

Most likely, this guy won't even touch the field in today's meta game. Your opponent will most likely have negation monsters on the field. If you do end up getting around them or your opponent not having negates, it still ends up eating 4 of your summons that turn anyway, risking a "Nibiru, the Primal Being" play next, as you'd need more monsters out to OTK your opponent. Nibiru kills it easily since it tributes, not destroys, making its second effect useless to protect it.

As Zamazenta kinda said, its best effect is used during the Battle Phase, making it even more situational to use. Even if you happen to go first, its protection effect doesn't prioritize setting that card up over monsters with negates and/or chains into combos or negates. It doesn't even protect itself from being tributed by Kaijus/Golem, so it's better to have a negate monster you can resurrect from the Graveyard, instead of this card. It's a niche card that can set your opponent up to be OTK'd if you ripped through their negates, but the odds of you using it in every duel is pretty slim.

In conclusion: I'd have a blast using this card in fun duels tho, but competitive wise, it wouldn't be a staple monster in the Extra Deck, outside of decks that could possibly abuse it.

NO IT ISN'T! IT. ITS effects are only Battle Phase Focused not even the most broken card man get a life!

Its first effect is restricted to the Battle Phase, its second effect is not. Still, I agree with ya (except for the last part), it's not broken since it's a niche bonus monster to use but not necessary to have.

Looks like a fun card to use in fun duels! I also like the art that you chose for this monster! Nice job!
