Let's say I have a card with a name as such:

 

X-Crossed Saber Guardian

 

Would this count as an X-Saber monster?

[-Griffin]

No, it must directly have "X-Saber" in the name "Froply Mog" is not a Frog.

Yes

So...

Player 1 activates Assault Mode Activate, then Player 2 activates Stardust's effect, then Player 1 activates Divine Wrath, then Player 2 activates 7 Tools, theeen Player 1 activates Negate Trap, AND THEEEN Player 2 activates Royal Decree.

Post how that all goes down.

I'm assuming that "Stardust" means "Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode", since the regular Stardust Dragon cannot negate Assault Mode Activate since it does not destroy any cards on the field.

 

Also, there is no card called "Negate Trap", and "Remove Trap" cannot be used in the middle of a chain.

 

Royal Decree is a Continuous Trap (Spell Speed 2), so it can't be used on a Counter Trap like 7 Tools, since that is Spell Speed 3.

 

If you stop the chain you posted with the activation of 7 Tools, then this happens:

 

- Chain Link 4: Player 2 pays 1000 LP and negates and destroys Divine Wrath

- Chain Link 3: Divine Wrath was negated. Skip this step.

- Chain Link 2: Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode's effect activates; it sends itself to the Graveyard to negate Assault Mode Activate

- Chain Link 1: Assault Mode Activate was negated. Skip this step.

 

So after all this, Player 2 is 1000 LP less and has SD/AM in the grave. Player 1 has 2 cards negated and nothing else.

Player 1 is expelled from the tournament from running homebrew cards, and Player 2 is expelled from the tournament for failing to read Stardust Dragon's effect properly and for failing to understand Spell Speeds. The match is won by the judge.

The first time I summon or set a monster, do I have to do it in the middle monster zone?

 

If I equip my Evocator with Supervise, then send Supervise to the graveyard to destroy 1 card, and my opponent activates Koa'ki Meiru Guardian to negate Evocator to negate and destroy it, can I summon the same Evocator with the effect of that Supervise?

1) You can place a monster/spell/trap in any available open zone. The video games are set to do this automatically to start at the center and work its way outward, but that option can be turned off.

 

2)

 

Chain 1: Evocator sends Supervise as a cost to the Graveyard to activate its effect.

Chain 2: Koa'ki Meiru Guardian is tributed as a cost to negate the effect of Evocator and destroy it.

 

First thing is Supervise is sent to the Graveyard as a cost. Next, Koa'ki Meiru Guardian is tributed as a cost to negate Evocator. Evocator's effect is negated and it is sent to the Graveyard.

 

Next, Supervise is a mandatory effect and will activate after the chain. As long as Evocator is in the Graveyard, you can special summon him.

I got more questions:

 

1. Can I activate the effect of "Plague Wolf" during the Damage Step, so the attacked monster would be destroyed if it has less than 2000 ATK and my opponent won't be able to modify my monster's ATK with "Shrink", etc at that time?

 

2. The Yugioh Wikia says that the new "Super-Nimble Mega Hamster" can Special Summon Kynka-Byo and Inaba. Is this true? I ask because those monsters cannot be Special Summoned, and their effects never state they can be Special Summoned in face-down Defense Position like the Hamster does.

1) Even though its an effect that modifies ATK, many cards like this are usually ignition effects during the main phase, unless it specifically states that it A) can be used during either player's turn or B) Can be activated during the damage step.

 

I believe Plague Wolf cannot be activated during the damage step, only during your Main Phase.

 

2) The Wikia is incorrect. If a card states it cannot be Special Summoned, then it cannot be Special Summoned. Face-up or face-down, a Special Summon is a Special Summon. Try looking up similar rulings to Cyber Jar or Morphing Jar #2 which both special summon cards face-down.

The lolwiki is, as usual, wrong. There's a reason people haven't been abusing The Shallow Grave with Nomis and the like.

[Darj]

I see. Thanks for your answers.

 

It would have been great to Special Summon Kinka with Super Hamster in a Moja Deck, though.

Is Dark Magic Curtain's Summoning restriction applied if its effect is activated by way of Diamond Dude?

[CrabHelmet]

Is Dark Magic Curtain's Summoning restriction applied if its effect is activated by way of Diamond Dude?

 

I haven't seen any rulings on the subject' date=' but based on what the cards say, the restriction should not be applied. Diamond Dude says "you can activate its [i']effect[/i]", but Dark Magic Curtain says "If you activate this card"; since it is not the card itself but rather the effect that is being activated, the restriction should not be applied. This seems consistent with "Supremacy Berry" rulings.

One more question. It's about an hypothetical situation, but the answer will help me with a realistic card I have in mind:

 

Some "Roid" monsters have effects that support "roid" monsters (with minus). So, if a Roid (with mayus) monster existed, would it be supported by those cards?

[daboss144]

I don't know what mayus is, but probably.

[-Griffin]

I think he means lower case and capital letters?

I don't believe case has a standing on card name treatment.

Cards like "Dark Jeroid" and "Elemental Hero Necroid Shaman" are considered as "Roid" monsters for several effects, such as "Armoroid", "Stealthroid" and "Rescuroid". This is probably why some Vehicroid support cards state "Machine-type 'Roid'" monsters rather than simply "Roid" monsters.

 

So to answer the question, if it has "Roid" in its name, then its considered a "Roid" monster.

You're answering the wrong question.

He's asking if "roid" is the same as "Roid"

Note the capital in the second one.

[darkwolf777]

Ah, well in that case, I can't think of any official examples to really answer that question. I can't really think of any cards that search via name where casing is different yet both supported.

[Darj]

I think he means lower case and capital letters?

 

Yeah' date=' that's what I meant. Sorry, I forgot how those were called when I posted my question.

 

And as for official examples, there is Exxod, who needs "[b']s[/b]phinx" monsters and yet you can Tribute "Guardian Sphinx" to Summon him, so I guess Griffin is right.

 

Thanks for your answers.
