well, here's the thing, the way I was thinking it, it does counter it, but it's more that the main "villain" tried to get rid of the force, regressing it, so they are stuck in that form, needing the help of claire(maybe even some of the other duelists like syrus or alexis if we want to give them some extra cards

), to actually unlock their power, through ritual summoning or a specific type, so it's more first a "reflect" as you said, but then the cards "grow up" to kinda become a counter
