Yu-Gi-Oh! Rulings Questions

Does Necrovalley negate the effect of Honest?

[-Griffin]

No, it doesn't target a monster in the Graveyard.

When doing an infinite LP loop, can you declare an uncalculable number like Graham's Number * 1000? If so, how would you work with cards like Yu-Jo Friendship around that?

So you're trying to say "I declare that i'm going to continue this infinite HP loop until I have "Graham's Number * 1000". Yeah, you probably can't do that. You'll have to add each increase yourself each time you heal yourself xD

 

Also, if you want to give yourself and your opponent (Graham's Number * 500 ) + 1/2 your opponent's LP then that's up to you, though probably someone will deck out before burning that down x.x

Does Necorvalley prevent the opponent from attacking while I control the effect of Gravekeeper's Servant?

[-Griffin]

No, because nothing there targets cards in the Graveyard =/

I see no reason why Graham's Number should be prohibited, but I also see no reason why you should ever want to use it in the first place. A million would be nigh-unreachable; a billion even more so; a trillion even more so; a googol even more so; a googolplex more so still.

If you target a Neos Alius with Wrath of Neos while it's equipped with Supervise, do you get the monster from Supervise before or after all cards on the field are destroyed?

I believe Supervise has to resolve, so it should be after.

Can I do him during the damage step?

It'll activate after the current chain ends.

Can I do him during the damage step?

 

My guess would be yes, since your opponent's Damage Step is within your opponent's Battle Phase, and it also directly affects ATK/DEF values.

[Jericho]

What kind of deck can use Archfiend Marmot of Nefariousness?

[Krillin!]

Can you use Threatening Roar to negate an attack or only before the attack is declared?

[darkwolf777]

Can you use Threatening Roar to negate an attack or only before the attack is declared?

 

You cannot use Threatening Roar to stop an attack that has already been declared.

Can I do him during the damage step?

 

Yes because it's spell speed two and affects attack and defense values.

So what you're asking is can you give both players an infinite amount of lifepoints? In theory, yes. However, in a tournament setting you would still be required to keep track of the LP and in sudden death/four turns, the player with the most LP would still win.

Example: Player A Has infinite LP

Player B Has infinite LP

Player A Takes 1000 Damage from a direct attack

Player B Takes no damage after being given infinite LP

Player A has infinity minus 1000 LP

Player B has infinity LP

*Game goes to four turns*

Neither Player takes damage in sudden death

Player B wins because:

Player A has infinity minus 1000 LP

Player B has infinity LP

Infinity>Infinity-1000

If Grandmaster of the Six Samurai on the field is Special Summoned, but negated by Royal Oppression, does he still get his effect of being removed by card effect?

[daboss144]

No because he never was properly summoned. His effect doesn't activate.

No, no, no, no, no. Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

 

First of all, you can't give yourself an infinite number of Life Points. You have to declare a specific number. It can be an absurdly high number, but it still has to be a real number. Graham's number is absurdly high - unless my memory betrays me, it is so large that there is not enough matter in the universe to express it in scientific notation - but it is still a real and specific number.

 

This means that , if one player pulls off an infinite Life Point loop and declares a value for his Life Points, and the opponent then pulls off his own infinite Life Point loop, the opponent can choose a higher value for his Life Points than the first player did. If Player 1 pulls off an infinite Life Point loop and grants himself a million Life Points on the first turn of the duel, then when Player 2 pulls off his infinite Life Point loop on the second turn of the duel, Player 2 will almost certainly choose a significantly higher value, and will therefore perhaps award himself a brillion Life Points. When the match goes to time, Player 2 will have more Life Points and will therefore be declared the winner. In other words, in infinite Life Points versus infinite Life Points, it is best to be the second player to complete the infinite Life Point combo - unless,, of course, you can then pull off your own infinite Life Point loop a second time and one-up the opponent by increasing your Life Points to a trillion.

 

Second of all, the statement "Infinity>Infinity-1000" offends the mathematician within me. Infinity does not work that way, and I must ask that you cease using it until you have learned to do so without making such idiotic statements.

No because he never was properly summoned. His effect doesn't activate.

 

Actually, it does activate, he doesn't have to be destroyed while on the field, CCV also triggers it.

[darkwolf777]

Correct. It will activate. "Being destroyed by an opponent's card's effect" is the only condition for that effect. It doesn't have to be on the field when it was destroyed.

So it's situational, if the Oppression was already faceup the effect does not activate. If it was just activated, the effect does activate.

Lol, Ok Crab, you win this round. I apologize for my incorrect use of various numbers and mathematical statements.

[賢狼ホロ]

Is it not forbidden to activate a card that you know will cause a loop?

[darkwolf777]

Is it not forbidden to activate a card that you know will cause a loop?

 

If it would cause an infinite loop, then correct, the card cannot be played.

[Chaos Flame]

There are a few exceptions, mainly when there is no way to avoid the loop (ex. I know this will probably never happen, but... Player A controls Ebon Magician Curain during their draw phase. They activate Bad reaction. Player B chains A hero emerges. Player A chains gift of Greed. Player B draws two cards, one is Prime Material Dragon which is picked by a hero emerges. currains effect activates during Standby, prime material chains, bad reaction chains, ect. I know this will never happen) . In this case, one or both of the loopers are destroyed
