Oh, yeah on the guard restriction one. Bushiroad attempted that, but eventually gave up and went with Time Leap because those effects are difficult to create due to how powerful they are and the cost for them would have to be equally hefty. Same with discarding (Nubatama).

You wanted to try Hand and Ability Manipulation. Hand has a few things but Ability has a lot more (but you'd need to think of it). Though maybe something like activating abilities from the hand would work as if they were a spell?

Of course you could keep with what you were doing. It's just best that you swap the costs and the card effects around. Superior calling in the battle phase is definitely not a cost.
