Yu-Gi-Oh! Rulings Questions


Recommended Posts

What's the most recent status on Pot Of Greed and Monster Reborn? Last recent list I saw had POG on the Restricted list still and MR was moved to the Limited List' date=' as was Cyber Dragon.

Both are banned.

*reluctantly removes both from deck*

 

 

BTW, does Lord Of D's effect prevent you from using Assault Mode Activate on your own Stardust Dragon/Red Dragon Archfiend?

 

Lord of D stops you from targetting with effects. The tribute part of AMA is a cost, not an effect.

 

Okay, I wasn't sure because in GX Spirit Caller, I wasn't allowed to use Dragon Treasure or Inferno Fire Blast even though the requirements for those cards were met.

 

Those cards do not involve tributing a Dragon as a cost though, do they?

Can anyone tell me if this recipy would work for infinite life points?

 

A friend of mine has the original "Obelisk the Tormentor" card and one of the effects that is has is to tribute two monsters and gain infinite life points. I know he can't actually use the card, let alone the effect. Anyway, if he tributed the monsters and had "The Wicked Avatar" on the field, it would have infinite ATK as well right? If he used "Mystic Wok" on the avatar, would he have infinite life points?

He can't even use the Obelisk. Read the bottom left corner of the card. That said, the legal Obelisk says nothing of the sort.

 

Anyways, infinite LP is against the rules. You can declare a ridiculously high number, but not infinite.

 

The only legal combo that comes to mind using only cards that have been printed in English would be:

 

Flint + Flint Lock + Flint Lock + Morale Boost

 

Flint Lock's effect equips Flint to the other Flint Lock over and over, gaining 1000 LP each time. Just declare an amount of LP gain that's a multiple of 1000, and explain the combo.

If, however, we accept as a premise that he is indeed using illegal!Obelisk and is indeed using the anime infinite ATK effect, the ATK in that case literally is infinite because that's how the anime infinite ATK effect works, which means that the Mystic Wok combo also works to get literally infinite LP. Unfortunately, it is not exactly clear what happens if, say, the opponent produces his own infinite ATK monster and attacks directly - infinity minus infinity isn't terribly well-defined, and the only ruling the anime can provide comes from the end of the filler Doma season, and all that says is "Go with whatever ruling looks coolest". Which sums up the anime in general.

Show me a rule book or a rule that sais a player can't have or increase their life points to infinity. You must also cite this rule that you found.

 

Also thank you for the infinite life point guide. I have the morale boost, just need the other three.

Citing old rulings is impossible, since UDE nuked their old rulings resource.

 

That said, since no legal monster can have infinite ATK without infinite LP already there, but there are effects that increase ATK under certain conditions, wouldn't this fall under the infinite loop rule?

If you have a loop that you can iterate as many times as you like, you cannot declare "I do this infinity times". The rules say you can you can state a positive integer number of times you are iterating it, but you cannot make it literally infinite. This is because no finite number of iterations of the loop will have the desired infinite effect.

Is there any card that can possibly replace Ring of Destruction in an Armityle OTK Deck?

 

(Gale Dogra + Phantom of Chaos + Ring of Destruction = OTK)

 

Doesn't this kill you too?

 

Well, you can chain Barrel Behind the Door if you wanted too >_>

The Owner is the person who started with it in their deck. It goes to that person's hand.

Owner describes whoever had the card to begin with, controller describes who currently has it. So, it goes to your hand.

ok' date=' situation:

I play fire princess, play soul absorb, and then gold sarc necroface.

 

how much damage do I deal?

[/quote']

 

It resolves like this:

 

Sarc triggers both Soul Absorption and Necroface. You gain 500, then RFP 10.

 

You then trigger Fire Princess and Soul Absorption. Fire Princess deals 500, you heal 5000 from Soul Absoprtion.

 

This triggers Fire Princess again, so you deal another 5000.

 

Overall: Gain 5500, Deal 1000

What are important things for decks to side against, and what gets sided against said decks? I know that I have to somehow handle Skill Drain, LS, BW and Oppression.

 

Because of this, my IRL is currently testing the following Side Deck:

 

1x Gorz the Emissary of Darkness

2x Light-Imprisoning Mirror

1x Morphtronic Boarden

1x Morphtronic Slingen

1x My Body as a Shield

1x Mystical Space Typhoon

2x Prohibition

2x Royal Decree

2x Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror

2x Trap Eater

 

LIM, Boarden, Gorz, MBaaS, Prohibition and SIM for both LS and Twilight. Decree, Prohibition, MST, Trap Eater and Slingen for Oppression, everything there barring Slingen for Skill Drain. The main issue here is - what do I add for Blackwings? Furthermore, is this even an effective Side Deck as-is?

Yeah... The problem is that all 10 cards from Necroface are RFP'd at the same time, so it's just one instance of healing.

OK, look at this situation

 

Hand: Left leg of the Forbidden One, Right Leg of the Forbidden One, Left Arm of the Forbidden One, Right Arm of the Forbidden One, Allure of Darkness

 

I play allure and draw Exodia the forbidden one and Magic Cyllinder, Do i win the duel, or must I remove from play one of the exodia cards for allure's effect.

 

I assume that I win, but once again the judge at my locals is an idiot.

Unfortunately, your judge is correct. You must finish the current effect you're doing before you can declare your victory, similar to Graceful Charity's rulings on the subject.

I thought that resulted in a tie...
