You can only use each effect of this card’s name once per turn.
(1) If a face-up Field Spell is on the field: You can Tribute this card; Special Summon 1 “Malefic Parallel Gear” from your Deck, then add 1 “Malefic” monster from your Deck to your hand, except “Malefic Parallel Gear”.
(2) If you would banish a monster to Special Summon a “Malefic” monster from your hand using its own procedure, you can banish this card from your field or GY instead.

One for One compatible.
Machine Duplication compatible (but Hard OPT clause makes this less relevant).

Requiring "Malefic Parallel Gear" in the main deck enforces running multiples of a bad card. But it balances and locks it to a "true" Malefic deck, which is reasonable.

Is Konami gonna revive Paradox for a new movie involving all the protagonists?

Different realities are big in zexal, arc-v, and vrains, so I'd like to see Bonds Beyond Space.

Malefics never used protagonist cards so I'm counting more on the likes Malefic Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon, Malefic Silent Honors Dark Knight, Malefic Frightfur Chimera or maybe even a Malefic Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon at best.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just remembered Malefic Stardust.

I think Paradox went after ace dragons only (in shape, not type, considering CED). The first 2 protagonists just didn't have a dragon as their ace monster.

Malefic Parallel Gear isn't a bad card, though. And is now even better thanks to this card.

Hmm. I may be missing the merits of Parallel Gear. What is not bad about it?

One card level 10 synchro, basically. And this sets up exactly what it needs, so it won't be a dead card without a level 8 in hand.
