Given it's Yugioh, summoning monsters is usually very easy, so you can special summon as many monsters as you can with no problem. Being capable of also using spell and trap cards is complete Bullshit. This is fucking RWBY kid, not Yugioh.

I honestly expected something a lot more original when you described yourself before you mentioned Yugioh ARC-V. This is just a complete, Marty Stuish, unoriginal ripoff. You could have at the very least changed it so it fitted RWBY more than Yugioh. There's also no mention of Aura anywhere. Kids these days...

99.199.94.201, you dissapoint me. A damn lot. Even I could make a Semblance based on your supposed personality that would fit you a lot more than basically "Let's Play Yugioh!". I don't care what you think, and frankly, that would be my semblance if I have one. And well, I would write a RWBY fic soon and will give an OC that semblance. Or alternatively, playing chess with everyone present as pieces. I apply game logic and strategems to real life scenarios anyway. As for attacking, I could just structure it in a defined "Battle Phase", whilst anyone who tries to attack me has to get pass my monsters first. As for aura, if going by Pokemon that it's life energy, then aura for me plays no role other than simply being my "LP" gauge.

Using Spell and Trap cards is far from bullshit, since that's how the game works. Whatever you say, kid, since Yu-Gi-Oh!, or a game analogous to it, apparently exists in RWBY's universe. If my friends say I'm like Yuya and Declan, I'm not going to doubt them. I daresay it's original enough for my taste, since well, not all Yu-Gi-Oh! effects translate cleanly into a fighting scenario, so thinking about how they do that works for me in terms of originality.

So long as I don't disappoint myself, that's enough for me. And frankly, I doubt any semblance you come up with will "fit me", since I decide what "fits me" or not, kid.
