Necroface is still a good card in my opinion, also Restricted, who likes to wreak havoc in the other Dimension.  All removed cards of both players are returned to their respective Decks, which are then shuffled.  Necroface gains 100 attack for each card effected by this ability.  When this card is removed from play, both players remove the top five cards of their Deck from play.  Here's the tricky part of Necroface...you can't just throw him into a Zombie or Removal Deck, and expect this to work out.  The Deck needs to more or less be built around Necroface to truly be successful.  Sadly, there isn't the biggest place for this Zombie...nevertheless...

Necroface, Uglyface, Yourface, whatever you call this thing, it's copying my Sangan review. Like Necro Gardna, this dead thing used to be trouble in large numbers (YEEEAAAAAH!!!!). But now it's not. Necroface was mostly used only in its own deck, which you might remember as Necromill. However, with just one of these and just one D.D. Burial, nothing much will happen.

You can't remove on Necroface, remove another, and continue some chain of awesomeness. You can have it restore your removed cards, but chances are, using that 1 D.D. Burial over that 1 Necroface will save you a summon and be much faster, and with more synergy. It can have some interesting uses, but nothing actually effective.

2/5
Fart: That's what this is.
Fun Fact: There is no day I hate more than Halloween.
Tomorrow: What I wish I could trap the Trick-or-Treaters in.

Run while you can, Magician's Valkyria! Find some place to hide, Dark Magician Girl! It’s the Konami Tentacle Octopus… Baby head, flying…  zombie thing. Now that I think about it, I wonder what brought Konami to create something of Necroface’s caliber? Oh well. Anyways, about our creepy friend Necroface. I personally like Necroface, but he really just isn’t that playable anymore. There are some nice moves you can play with him. Take for instance using Gold Sarcophagus. You select Necroface, remove him (Which removes the top 5 cards from both players deck’s) then in two turns when you summon him he’ll be at least a 2200Atk monster, which isn’t too bad.

Even with this, though, he still isn’t that playable. Even in a dark deck you would have to be careful. Say he’s in your hand and you’ve played Allure of Darkness, you will have to be very careful in choosing to remove your Necroface because your top 5 cards would go with him. This card still has some perks that are mildly playable. Say you’re running zombie and you have your Mezuki and Plaguespreader Zombie already removed from play. You could summon Necroface to shuffle them back into your deck, but there are still way better options *Cough* Burial from a Different Dimension *Cough.*
So with Necroface being limited and all, I don’t really see him as a very good card. I definitely think that Konami should consider placing Necroface back to at least being Semi-Limited. And hey, if he’s even put back at 3 again we may see that Inferno Tempest OTK come back. Who knows?
