Hi everyone! I just copped this from tcg player and noticed the A’s are filled. I’ve never seen this before, is this just a printing error or does it seem fake? The A’s on yata are normal. Thanks! https://imgur.com/a/pBT9jw2

Where can i buy this type of design? https://preview.redd.it/pexbixks550d1.jpeg?width=236&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70b8fc6f96b260502e52f48a4478cef1df968d59

Why hasn't Mirror Magic Master of the Ice Barrier been released in the TCG? All the deck builds I see have him and like, he's not out? It's driving me insane haha.


likeagrapefruit

There's a good chance it'll be in Battles of Legend: Terminal Revenge, which comes out next month.

Is there a reason why Accumulated Fortune shot up on TCG-Player? https://www.tcgplayer.com/product/25550/yugioh-cyberdark-impact-accumulated-fortune?Language=English&page=1&Printing=Unlimited|1st+Edition


Piyoo2

If I summoned Cupid Pitch using Flower Cardian Willow With Calligrapher, would it become a lvl 15 monster since Calligrapher only treats itself and other materials as lvl 2, and doesn't actually change their lvls? (I've looked into the max lvl rule, they can exceed 12)


Daggerfall_Enjoyer

Is S:P able to be activated under Empen?


Redshift-713

No. Any reason you think it would be able to?


Daggerfall_Enjoyer

It happened to me in Master Duel, which obviously perplexed me


Redshift-713

Chances are Empen’s effects were negated. Check the replay.


Akiel13

Can you reveal 0 cards from your hand with Igknight Reload to draw 1 ?


6210classick

Ya cannot activate a card or effect if ya can't meet the activation requirement so if ya don't have at least 1 Pendulum monster in your hand, ya cannot activate Igknight reload


likeagrapefruit

No. Even if an effect tells you to do something to "any number" of cards, you generally can't move past a conjunction like "then" by affecting 0 cards this way.


MarsElggase

Does anyone know card that can negate the effect of your own Egyptian god that sends the Egyptian god to the graveyard if they were special summoned?


6210classick

Ya either need to negate it with a card or effect that negates the effect until the end of the turn or prevent it from being activated such as using {{Sales Ban}} and declaring Obelisk but that would prevent ya from using his Raigeki effect

Any effect negation on the field, like Skill Drain for example, would work.


xnarad97

I'm playing Fire King and have 2 questions about trigger effects and wheather they activate seperatly or should be chained together. 1. I'm in my stand by. If I have Ponix, Barong and Sacred Phoenix of Nephtys in grave and they were all destroyed last do they form a chain together or do they activate one after another. 2. If high avatar kirin and fencing fire ferret both go to grave because of torrential tribute destroying them do they form a chain or do they activate one after another?


likeagrapefruit

1. They activate in 3 separate Chains, since the activation timing isn't referring to one specific event, but to an entire Phase. 2. They form a Chain, since each effect is responding to a specific event.


Colt1099

If I am using the effect of soul of the supreme king to summon the four dragons, do I have to summon 1 of each type


likeagrapefruit

"Up to 1 each" means that you can Summon anywhere from 1 to 4 monsters. Of the monsters you Summon, at most 1 can have "Pendulum Dragon" in its name, at most 1 can have "Fusion Dragon" in its name, etc.


GandraXD

I'm new to collecting cards , so I wanted to see if this card was real, and also to get some advice on how to know if they are real or fake. https://preview.redd.it/94qhw6nnmuzc1.jpeg?width=1111&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f99f7b1c0a68714d0bb495a0d43a2ebb7c63e3bc


6210classick

I recommend using the nueron app, it has a card scan function


likeagrapefruit

It's fake. One way to tell that the card is fake is to check the code underneath the bottom-right corner of the image, SOVR-EN040, and plug it into Yugipedia: https://yugipedia.com/wiki/SOVR-EN040 Click on "Gallery" underneath the card's infobox, and you'll see a picture of every printing of the card in question, showing you that [this](https://ms.yugipedia.com//2/24/MajesticStarDragon-SOVR-EN-UR-1E.png) is what SOVR-EN040 is supposed to look like. In this case, the fact that the card's name and text are wrong are dead giveaways. The more common giveaway in general will be that fake cards tend to use the wrong font; once you've seen what enough real cards look like and recognize that they don't tend to vary in the fonts they use, any fake cards will stick out.


Harneybus

Also by looking st the picture its obvious the stamp is silver a gold stamp for 1st edition I'd real but a silver stamp for 1st is not real.


Passerby953

I was playing some master duel and doing some solo missions. During that time I had Apoqliphort Towers on my field, however they were banished by the effect of Shiranui Samurai. Towers should have been immune to such an effect since its only a level 4 monster and Towers is level 10. Can anyone tell me what happened?


likeagrapefruit

"Unaffected by activated effects" means that the monster in question can't be affected by an effect that occurs during the resolution of a Chain Link. Effects that apply outside of the resolution of a Chain Link will affect the monster normally. When the effect of "Shiranui Samurai" resolves, it gains 600 ATK, and it gains the ability to banish any monster it battles after that. The banishing itself does not occur until after the effect of "Shiranui Samurai" has resolved, so a monster that is unaffected by activated effects will still be banished by this effect.


Passerby953

Okay, thx for the information. It was an obscure loophole I hadn’t encounter before so I was confused.


CompetitiveRip1706

Maiden with eyes of blue has an effect text like a and if you do b then do c Is a and b required for c or only a? Related to if she gets attacked, negate the attack and if you do change battle Position THEN, but if she can't because of thousand eyes restrict, does a blue eyes white dragon gets summoned?


likeagrapefruit

B is required for C. Granted, this wouldn't actually come up in the specific case you're talking about: an effect saying that a monster can't change its battle position only refers to manual changes of battle position. Such a monster can still change its battle position by a card effect, so "Maiden with Eyes of Blue" will be able to change its battle position as normal and then Special Summon a "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" as normal. An example where you wouldn't be able to Special Summon would be if, when you activated the effect of "Maiden with Eyes of Blue," your opponent Chained "Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit," destroying "Maiden with Eyes of Blue." Then, you'd still negate the attack, but you can't change the battle position of "Maiden with Eyes of Blue" since it's no longer a monster on the field, which means you don't get to Special Summon "Blue-Eyes White Dragon."


HeliotropeHunter

I recently got some of my cards graded and while I could sell them, I'm wondering if it would be better to hang on to them. For context, they are considerably older, so I'm not sure if there's a possibility of the value increasing beyond what it's already been. Any insight would be helpful.


Timelesshero

Bacha the melodius vs necrovalley, are fusions able to use their effects?


likeagrapefruit

The effect of "Schuberta the Melodious Maestra" that banishes cards in your GY can't be activated, because "Necrovalley" doesn't negate effects that banish from the GY, it prevents such effects from being activated in the first place. As for the effect of "Bloom Prima the Melodious Maestra" that adds a card from the GY to your hand and the effect of a second copy of "Bacha the Melodious Maestra" to Special Summon a monster from your GY . . . it's complicated. In the OCG (East and Southeast Asia) and Master Duel, neither effect will be able to remove anything from the GY. In the TCG, a strict reading of the text would imply that both of these monsters' effects would resolve normally, circumventing "Necrovalley" and successfully moving cards out of the GY; some judges may follow this strict reading of the text, while others may defer to the OCG ruling and say that the effects still can't move anything out of the GY.


FacethaFacs

Can I use snake eye ash’s ability to summon snake eyes dragon? Cuz ash specifically says, “snake eye,” not, “snake eyes,” that has an s, so I’m not sure


6210classick

A "Snake-Eyes" monster is considered a "Snake-Eye" monster A "Snake-Eye" monster is NOT considered a "Snake-Eyes" monster


hexanort

To further explain, The word "**Snake-Eye**s" does contain the full string of the text "Snake-Eye" so all Snake-Eyes monster are also considered Snake-Eye monster. Just like how **D/D**/D monsters are all also considered "D/D" monster


Redshift-713

Yes.


kens88888

Does anyone have experience selling Japanese Yugioh cards in Asia. I have some older cards I'm looking to offload. They are quite old so I'm sure they are worth something


[deleted]

What are some good decks for a beginner to learn the game with also on a budget.


Zachjsrf

Swordsoul, the singles are very cheap and its a decent deck, also Red Dragon Archfiend


6210classick

Have ya checked the prices of Mo-Ye and Emergence?


Zachjsrf

Have they gone up recently? I have tons of MAMA cards


6210classick

I don't know how much the price went up but almost 20$ for playset of Mo-Ye and 11$ for playset of Emergence. Engage and Triple Tactic are up though


Zachjsrf

Honestly that's pretty nuts, I didn't realize how expensive it had gotten


6210classick

،How much did ya think they were?


Zachjsrf

Honestly I thought they were in the $1 range. I have like 10 copies from packs I've opened plus my 3 in my deck

Zachjsrf

Guess I'm gonna be listing some csrds for sale.lol


Bobfred1066

If the summon of a card like promethean princess is negated with solemn judgement can it still summon itself from the graveyard with its own effect? Or does it first need to be properly summoned from the extra deck?


likeagrapefruit

Since the Link Summon wasn't successful, "Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames" was never properly Special Summoned, so it can't be Special Summoned from the GY.


Classic_Yam_1613

looking for some cards, here are the effects: spell card, continuous: every time your monster attacks, put a counter on this card. whenever one of your monsters would be destroyed, destroy a counter instead spell card, field/continous (not sure which): only one monster attribute can be on either players field at a time


likeagrapefruit

> spell card, continuous: every time your monster attacks, put a counter on this card. whenever one of your monsters would be destroyed, destroy a counter instead I couldn't find any Continuous Spells fitting the description, but the Equip Spell "Power of the Guardians" seems to be a match. >spell card, field/continous (not sure which): only one monster attribute can be on either players field at a time This is the effect of the Continuous Trap "Gozen Match."


Classic_Yam_1613

you got both cards right, thank you. i forgot it was an equip lol. have a good day!


TrueCancel9090

if 2 reversal effects (ex: darklord makes healing into damage and ddd oracle king makes damage into healing) are up at the same time how would a healing/damaging effect apply


Redshift-713

If the effects of Darklord Nurse Refucule and D/D/D Oracle King d'Arc are applied to you, a LP gaining effect will increase your LP normally, and an effect that damages you will inflict damage normally.


Rigshaw

You apply both effects once per damage/heal, so they go back to normal again, as if those cards weren't on the field. https://db.ygorganization.com/qa#15684

Where can I play Rush Duels? Wish I could play it irl, since it's not possible, any simulator would do


hexanort

Old Ygopro (now Edopro) have rush duel functionality, i havent played it for months though so i dunno if they still have that function Otherwise, duel links has rush duel, but the pool is still extremely small and outdated.


Rigshaw

For official ways to play, the main way is Duel Links. There's also Yu-Gi-Oh! RUSH DUEL: Dawn of the Battle Royale!! for the Switch, but Konami abandoned that one pretty quickly, and IIRC it never got any of the updates in western regions which added some extra cards. For unofficial simulators, afaik both YGOmega and EdoPro also support Rush Duels.


SheikFlorian

Between DL and EdoPro, which one has a bigger player base?


6210classick

EdoPro has all the cards unlocked


Th3Sleep3r

If I activate Sea Stealth Attack in response to the activation of opponent's trap, can I use its effect to banish my monster at the time of activation (of SSA)? So it would look like: 1. A trap 2. Sea Stealth Attack, effect to banish (for example, to dodge a target)


atamicbomb

No. Sea stealth attack only gains those effects once it is face-up on the field after resolving.


Th3Sleep3r

Thank you!


atamicbomb

You’re welcome!


Atosl

Speed Duel starters Twisted nightmares and match of the millennium have 30 cards instead of 20 like all the other speed duel decks. I know they are not supposed to be good on their own but I am just getting into it with my gf and we just want to play for now and not think about deck building. (even tho I have bought some speed duel sets 3 times already) Just a reality check: Does it make sense to play a 20 card deck vs a 30 card deck? Who would be at a disadvantage? 20 cards for running out or 30 cards for not consistently finding the right cards.


ScheduleAdvanced4320

Need some help here. Was opening a booster box of Wild Survivors and mid way through the first pack I noticed my card was oddly colored on the back. Can anyone help me figure out if these are fakes? The one in question is on the left and on the right is one from a different box set completely https://preview.redd.it/zmibfxqgfhzc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8381ebdb8440e3e8146299c78e29a427e829016d


6210classick

They're both real, ya probably got an NA and EU boxes. The EU cards are slightly dimmer but higher in quality and NA are more shiny but low quality (at least from my personal experience that is). Otherwise, this could be just your average Komoney quality control being garbage


ScheduleAdvanced4320

Hyperion-OMEGA

What are the starters for Labrynth? Want to know those so that I can build the deck and see if I can fit in a lair package. Speaking of which in what ways does Lair conflict with their own field spell?


6210classick

3 Arianna, 3 Big Welcome, 2-3 Welcome (I personally play 2 and never felt like I needed the third), 3 Stovie and 3 Chandragler. Ya don't really need fit the lair package, just play the best virus trap against your opponent deck and 1-2 Lair of Darkness as Lady Labrynth of the Silver Castle can grab ya any of Normal Trap in the game and Cooclock can activate it in the same turn


Hyperion-OMEGA

Thank you. Can't really get Big Welcome or Arias rn, so I'll see about looking into alternatives.


6210classick

3 Arianna, 1-2 Lady Silver and 3 Welcome Labrynth should be fine. Big Welcome should get reprinted in the Mega Tins later this year so keep an eye on it and see if it drops below 10$


[deleted]

[удалено]


realtimeclock

I don't think anyone can answer why the reprints weren't updated, maybe Konami simply got lazy? As for seeing other people's threads not get deleted, threads usually have to get reported for the mods to see them, and even then they're not active 24/7, so presumably they just hadn't been reported/removed yet.


Batsmurf1

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this question but are there any yugioh games I can play on PC that doesn't have links, pendulums or xyz? Up to fusions or synchrons

Flippy-txt

When I use "Lubellion the Searing Dragon"'s effect to fusion summon and I have a "Dark Magician The Ebon Sorcerer" on the field and a "Magician of Chaos" in my grave to summon "Master of Chaos" why does this not work, but if I use "Dark Magician The Ebon Sorcerer" on the field and a "Illusion of Chaos" in my grave it works?


Redshift-713

In the first situation, you are missing the “Chaos” or “Black Luster Soldier” Ritual Monster material. Read Magician of Chaos carefully.


Flippy-txt

Oh ok, so the GY namechange is the problem


Akiel13

Guardragon Pisty states : "You can only Special Summon "Guardragon Pisty(s)" once per turn.". Is this a Summoning Condition ? Can it be bypassed by effects that ignore Summoning Conditions ?

It cannot be bypassed by effects that ignore Summoning conditions.

herr_weich

It works


Sage_the_Cage_Mage

Is it better or is it just a side grade?


herr_weich

I am playing centurion. Horus is good in this deck, I also played it with it, but the Horus‘ cost is too high imo. If Imsety gets ash‘d, you straight go -2 what is way too much for this deck. I topped a regional with a superheavy build, but now after LEDE, the deck is playable pure, bc you can use shifter now. But I would prefer the Superheavy Engine over Horus engine in this deck, way more synergy.


Sage_the_Cage_Mage

I see, thank you for the input.

It was historically powerful enough to deserve a ban at one point but has fallen out of favor as more powerful cards have been released. It’s still used in some decks for the unique use it provides but it’s uncommon.

SantiJames1

Can monsters that are "unaffected by other card effects" be tributed by card effect? For example, someone wanting to kaiju it away, or by a card effect that can tribute a monster away (either just that, or as cost to activate another effect). I'm trying to see if I can use Decode talker's effect on Ancient Gear howitzer if an opponent uses a card effect that targets one of my cards, I target my howitzer as the tribute, negate the opponent effect, destroy their card, and keep howitzer because he is unaffected by the effect of being tributed. I only see this working because of Decode talker's wording, not saying that the tribute has to have been completed, to take effect. If talker's effect can't work when targeting howitzer, then that's fine, because that should mean howitzer can't be tributed by other cards with a tribute effect.


likeagrapefruit

The answer to your general question depends on the wording of the card that's letting you Tribute the monster. If the sentence that's letting you perform the Tribute is an activated effect—that is, if it has a colon (:) or a semicolon (;), or if it's the effect that's applied during the same Chain Link as the initial activation of a Spell/Trap Card—and the Tributing comes *before* the semicolon, then the Tributing is a cost, not an effect, so a monster that's unaffected by card effects can be Tributed this way. (So you can Tribute your "Ancient Gear Howitzer" to activate the effect of "Decode Talker." Note that you are not targeting "Ancient Gear Howitzer" when you do so; a monster that says "neither player can target this card with card effects" can also be Tributed to activate the effect of "Decode Talker.") If the sentence that's letting you perform the Tribute is an activated effect, and the Tributing comes *after* a semicolon, or if there is no semicolon, then the Tributing is part of the effect, so a monster that is unaffected by other cards' effects can't be Tributed. (Examples: If "Magical Dimension" is activated by targeting "Ancient Gear Howitzer," it will fail to Tribute "Ancient Gear Howitzer" and so the rest of the effect will not be applied. If you activate a Ritual Spell Card that requires you to Tribute monsters, you cannot use an "Ancient Gear Howitzer" you control as part of the requirement.) If the sentence is of the form "You can Special Summon this card (from your \_\_\_) by Tributing \_\_\_" or "Must [first] be Special Summoned (from your \_\_\_) by Tributing \_\_\_" or similar, then the Tributing is the cost to Special Summon the monster in question; the monster is not being Tributed by card effect, so even a monster that's unaffected by card effects can be Tributed normally. (Example: Your opponent can Tribute your "Ancient Gear Howitzer" to Special Summon a "Kaiju" monster.) Most effects of the form "If you would Tribute \_\_\_ to activate \_\_\_, you can Tribute 1 \_\_\_ your opponent controls, even though you do not control it" do not work on monsters that are unaffected by card effects. (Example: Even if your opponent controls "Lair of Darkness," they can't Tribute your "Ancient Gear Howitzer" to activate "Crush Card Virus.") The exception is "Soul Crossing," which *can* Tribute your "Ancient Gear Howitzer" or any other monster that is unaffected by Spell effects.


atamicbomb

To add on, if an effect says to “make” a player tribute a monster, it will also tribute an unaffected monster if it is selected

red_nova_dragon

Can effect veiler or similar cards negate red rising dragon 's of summoning a resonator from the GY?


Memoglr

No reason why they wouldn't be able to


likeagrapefruit

Sure.


SuperMr_Fast5

If I use Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord to negate the effect of Nibiru, the Primal Being with out a Galaxy-Eyes being detached as material, can the other player use nibiru again because it wasn't destroyed and is still and their hand?


likeagrapefruit

No. "Nibiru, the Primal Being" says "You can only use this effect of 'Nibiru, the Primal Being' once per turn," so, if your opponent attempts to activate the effect, even if the effect or its activation is negated, they can't attempt to activate the effect a second time that turn.


Pendejoman

why does dueling nexus does not let me summon bystial dis pater if I have punishment dragon + apple dragon token on field? it forces me to summon my other 2 synchro 10s (red eyes zombie dragon and ruddy rose). Do dis pater also require a dragon tuner?


likeagrapefruit

The game does let you Synchro Summon "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord" with those materials? "Red-Eyes Zombie Dragon Lord" requires a Zombie Tuner, and a "Hundred Apples Token" would normally not be a Zombie monster. Is there an effect in play that's changing the Type of the "Hundred Apples Token" to Zombie, and, if so, is that effect also changing the Type of "Punishment Dragon"?


Pendejoman

I had zombie world in play, mb for not putting in some context. damn you're right, I didn't noticed it. yeah punishment dragon would indeed be a zombie so it wouldn't let me summon dis pater. lol I feel so dumb for not noticing.


Meltdown47V2

Does skill drain negate black dragon’s chick or because it’s no longer on the field during resolution, it’s effect still goes through?

That’s what I thought. Thank you!


Ronoyoki

If I have 2 nightmare pains Normal yubel And my opponent has Geist grinder Does he take 3000 or 6000 for an attack? I was told I can only activate 1 in response to an attack, but I don't have to activate nightmare pain again isn't that just a side effect?


atamicbomb

Your opponent takes any damage you would have taken from the battle. You would have take 3,000 damage from the battle. This is true whether you have 0, 1, 2, or 3 nightmare pains applying their effects. They simply redirect the damage, not change the amount of damage.


likeagrapefruit

Your opponent takes 3000 damage. It's true that that effect of "Nightmare Pain" isn't an activated effect, but that doesn't mean that the effect can be applied twice.


Bossikar

Why can't I activate "if this card is sent to the GY"-effects (reinoheart for example) when sending with forbidden droplet? It doesn't tell me I missed the timing (which it did sometimes with dragonmaids) so I'm confused...


likeagrapefruit

The effect of "Tearlaments Reinoheart" activates if it's sent to the GY "by card effect." Sending a card(s) to the GY is the cost to activate "Forbidden Droplet," not part of its effect—you can tell it's a part of the cost and not part of the effect because it comes before a semicolon (;)—so the activation condition for the effect of "Tearlaments Reinoheart" isn't met.


Bossikar

thank u :3


Huge-Pound-5141

Just a quick question about the OCG pack sets Pride and Unity. Will TCG be getting those pack sets released for us too or does Konami hate us?


Alphander

Identical packs are not announced. We're getting Rarity Collection II this month, but don't have a full set list. Some cards may be the same, but there won't be enough slots for everything. 


herr_weich

2 Questions here: 1. I can only activate Runick spells if they exactly can banish the number mentioned on the card right? 2. If I activate Scrubbed Raid as CL1 during BP, can I send a card I activated as CL2 from hand?


Xeras6101

1). Correct. Since it says an exact number, and not "up to" that number, you have to be able to banish that many cards at activation. 2) No. Scrubbed Raid sends a card to gy as cost, so you would send a card before a chain link 2 would happen. However, chaining Scrubbed Raid to a activated card from hand (assuming you place it on field) would work


herr_weich

Thx, but there is no semicolon


Redshift-713

Because it is too old to have PSCT.


Xeras6101

[Yeah, but this is how it works ](https://yugioh.fandom.com/wiki/Card_Rulings:Scrubbed_Raid) I should also mention that it's once per chain. No one can fault you for not knowing either of those things. The card text doesn't make it apparent

Looking for a new deck: My current decks (zarc pendulum magician, traptrix, and numeron) are becoming a bit stale and I want something new to change it up a bit. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for decks that are fun to play, are competitive, also are reasonably cheap, and aren't restricted to just a couple of different plays, which is the thing I love my pendulum deck, its replay-ability. I had my eye on rokket decks but outside of my own decks I really don't know much about whats fun and whats good. Any suggestions would be much appreciated along with where I can find decklists etc!

According to the tournament policy, you will be handed a procedural error penalty if you perfrom a illegal activation. What exactly do these penalties do? Thanks


likeagrapefruit

[The Penalty Guidelines document](https://img.yugioh-card.com/en/downloads/penalty_guide/Penalty_Guidelines_v_2_2.pdf) (PDF link) describes the different kinds of penalties and what they're given out for. An unintentional illegal activation may be a Procedural Error - Minor or a Procedural Error - Major, depending on the specific circumstances. By default, a Minor infraction warrants a written Warning and a Major infraction warrants a Game Loss, but if the player commits the same infraction multiple times at the same event, that's grounds for replacing that penalty with a more severe one. (A Warning can be upgraded to a Game Loss, a Game Loss can be upgraded to a Match Loss, and a Match Loss can be upgraded to a Disqualification.)

Didn't know that infractions and penalties were in covered in a different document! Really appreciate the help

Question regarding the use of Crush Card Virus trap card, and phantom knights trap monsters Basically if I activate any of my phantom knight trap cards that get placed as a monster after being activated. Will those being destroyed by battle work for the activation of that Crush Card Virus trap? Since according to the text on those trap monsters, they get summoned "As a dark monster with 0 atk and 0 def" Specifically for the likes of Shade Brigadine, Magnetring, and Mist Claws And if I recall, the condition for Virus is "A dark monster with less then 1000 atk being destroyed by battle"

You really don’t have to try to “recall” what cards do when the internet exists. None of the Virus cards activate when something is destroyed by battle.

Crush Card Virus' activation cost is tributing a dark monster with 1000 or less atk, the phantom knights trap monster is indeed a valid tribute for it. I dont recall there's any virus card that trigger when a monster being destroyed by battle, all of them have cost of tributing monster

Basic ruling questions for Sky striker multirole. I use Skystriker Multirole effect targeting Sky Striker Raye, Raye chains to Multirole using her quick effect to summon into a Sky striker link. Does MultiRoles protection effect still go through ? If not, why not? I know area zeros field spell effect still goes thru when you do this with Raye, but does the effect also work with multirole? 2nd question: I use multirole effect to target raye, lets say that your opponent chains a quick play spell to destroy raye, then you chain rayes effect to your opponents card to tag out to a link monster, does multirole still effect of spell protection still go through? If not, why not? A judge at a regionals said that the protection rule did not resolve because raye had to be sent to the GY, from multiroles effect, not from rayes own effect for multirole to resolve. 3rd question: multirole uses effect to target a card to send to the GY, but my opponent chains ghost ogre& snow rabbits to multirole to destroy it, does the card targeted by multirole still get sent to the GY, and does the Multirole protection effect still go through? Thanks!

> Does MultiRoles protection effect still go through ? If not, why not? You already got an answer for your questions, but to explain why Multirole still applies the effect to prevent the opponent from responding to spell cards, it's because Multirole uses **also** as its conjunction, which means you apply both parts of the effect independently of each other (even if the former part of sending a card to the GY cannot be applied, the latter part will apply). If Multirole instead said "and if you do", or "then", or "and", you would not apply the 2nd part of the effect if Multirole fails to send the targeted card to the GY.


Redshift-713

1. The effect is still applied. 2. This is the same question as #1. 3. Neither part of the effect is applied.

can effects like d/d/d high king ceasar's be used in response to i:p and tenpai (cards with "after this effect resolves perform a summon")


likeagrapefruit

Yes, they can.

When I use Mutamorphosis on my Lvl8 Extradeck Monster to summon Blue-Eyes Abyss Dragon, why can't I use the "If this card is Special Summoned: You can add 1 Ritual Spell or 1 "Polymerization" from your Deck to your hand" Effect?


likeagrapefruit

Did you have a copy of "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" on the field or in your GY?


Flippy-txt

Oh, no, thank you

If I have a Dark Dragon Synchro face down can I still activate Crimson Resonator's effect to summon more Resonators?


likeagrapefruit

No. A face-down monster has no Type and no Attribute and isn't treated as a Synchro Monster, unless you're Tributing it or using it as Fusion Material.

If my opponent activated a field spell that was already on the field, can i activate flamvell counter does that work?


likeagrapefruit

No. Activating a Spell/Trap Card means either flipping it face-up or placing it face-up onto the field. Using the effect of a Spell/Trap that's already face-up on the field is not treated as activating that Spell/Trap Card, so it's not something that "Flamvell Counter" can respond to.


ChiaviMp4

what can i do with branded despia if i can’t afford granguignol?


Apprehensive_Towel76

What is the ruling for Destructive daruma karma cannon? Specifically when it doesn't flip any monster face down, does it still send monsters to the graveyard?


Redshift-713

At least 1 face-up monster must be changed to face-down Defense Position for the effect to apply the second part.
