Can i activate Torrential or Bottomless when GOLD OR SILVA ARE SPECIAL SUMMONED BY BRRON'S EFFECT?? or is this still damage step?

[darkwolf777]

Can i activate Torrential or Bottomless when GOLD OR SILVA ARE SPECIAL SUMMONED BY BRRON'S EFFECT?? or is this still damage step?

 

Brron's effect activate after Damage Calculation. If Goldd or Sillva are discarded by this effect, they're effect's activate at that time. After they are Summoned, any remaining effects that resolve at the End of the Damage Step take place, etc...

 

They are Special Summoned during the Damage Step, and therefore, you cannot activate Torrential or Bottomless against them.

Question 1: If Jurrac Metor is summoned and your opponent has Elemental Hero Absolute Zero on the field would your Absolute Zero's Effect come before or after Jurrac Meteor summons the turnner from your Graveyard?

 

Question 2: Dose Solem Negate the effect of Absolute Zero?

 

Meteor's Effect: When this card is Synchro Summoned, destroy all cards on the field. Then, you can Special Summon 1 Tuner Monster from your Graveyard.

 

Elemental Hero Absolute Zero: This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon. This card gains 500 ATK for each WATER monster on the field other than "Elemental Hero Absolute Zero". When this card is removed from the field, destroy all monsters your opponent controls.

 

Question 3: Also if your attacked with Wattgiraffe and take damage do you still have to reveal cards in your had for Koa'ki Meiru monsters?

Question 1: If Jurrac Metor is summoned and your opponent has Elemental Hero Absolute Zero on the field would your Absolute Zero's Effect come before or after Jurrac Meteor summons the turnner from your Graveyard?

 

Jurrac Meteor's Effect that Special Summons the Tuner is part of the same effect that "Destroys all monsters on the field.". Therefore, after Jurrac Meteor destroys everything on the field, it will then Special Summon 1 Tuner Monster. After the Tuner Monster is Special Summoned, Absolute Zero's effect activates and would destroy the Tuner monster.

 

Question 2: Dose Solemn Negate the effect of Absolute Zero?

 

There are several Solemn cards =/

 

Solemn Judgment does not negate monster effect activations. It cannot negate Absolute Zero's effect.

 

Solemn Warning only negates effects that Special Summon a monster. It cannot negate Absolute Zero's effect.

 

Solemn Wishes does not negate anything. It only recovers life points. Of course it cannot negate Absolute Zero's effect.

 

Question 3: Also if your attacked with Wattgiraffe and take damage do you still have to reveal cards in your had for Koa'ki Meiru monsters?

 

Maintenance Costs are not effects. You must always pay Maintenance Costs and nothing can negate Maintenance Costs (unless a card's effect specifically says you do not need to pay Maintenance Costs, such as with Pandemonium.).

 

Wattgiraffe prevents the activation of effects, and since Maintenance Costs are not effects, it cannot do anything against it.

Does Drill Warrior have 4 effects that start chains?

Halve, Direct Attack, Remove, Summon/Add?

 

Which parts can Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode negate?

[Brandon Michael Geren]

Can I side in a Rare Fish and take out a main decked card to make my deck 39?

[darkwolf777]

Does Drill Warrior have 4 effects that start chains?

Halve, Direct Attack, Remove, Summon/Add?

 

Which parts can Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode negate?

 

Drill Warrior has 3 Effects, 2 Ignition Effects and 1 Trigger. Any one of those can be negated by Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode. The Effects are as follows:

 

Ignition: Once per turn, during your Main Phase, you can halve this card's ATK (permanently). If you do, it can attack your opponent directly this turn.

 

Ignition: Once per turn, during your Main Phase, you can discard 1 card and remove this card from play.

 

Trigger: During your next Standby Phase, Special Summon this card, if removed by this effect. Then, add 1 Monster Card from your Graveyard to your hand.

 

Can I side in a Rare Fish and take out a main decked card to make my deck 39?

 

No, you cannot have less than 40 cards in your Main Deck.

and if I negate any of them, it's destroyed? cool

[Brandon Michael Geren]

 

 

 

No, you cannot have less than 40 cards in your Main Deck.

Are you sure?

[evilfusion]

Yes, we're 100% positive. It's one of the most fundamental rules of the game. Deck minimum=40.

[Mysty]

The original question was "can you have Fusions and Synchros in the Extra deck?". The answer to that was, "no, you can't have less than 40 cards in a deck." While the deck limit is true, the fact about the Extra Deck cards is not; you are allowed to have Extra deck cards in the Side Deck.

That wasn't my question. Everybody else got it right.

The original question was whether or not he could move a fusion card from the Side Deck to the Extra Deck, then add that card from the Main Deck to the Side Deck to bring his Main Deck below 40 cards, which he cannot do.

 

No one said you couldn't have Fusion/Synchros in the Extra Deck. I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion (though the cause might be due to the misread question x.o)

Yeah, reading it over I see I misread the question.

It was an honest mistake. I guess I got that idea because I don't think you were always able to do that. Then again, you didn't always need to.

 

Well, whatever, I provided some additional information to those who read it and didn't know that.

I activate Battle of the Elements. My opponent chains Book of Moon. What happens with the Facedown?

[Expelsword]

I summon Stardust Dragon

my opponent uses Bottomless Trap Hole

I counter with Assault Mode Activate

 

what happens?

 

Oh, and can you chain Divine Wrath to Colossal Fighter's effect to gain attack?

[darkwolf777]

I activate Battle of the Elements. My opponent chains Book of Moon. What happens with the Facedown?

 

Nothing. The player continues to destroy monsters until he has one visible Attribute on the field. The face-down is not destroyed as its Attribute cannot be determined to be either the same nor different so it is not considered for the effect of "Battle of the Elements".

 

I summon Stardust Dragon

my opponent uses Bottomless Trap Hole

I counter with Assault Mode Activate

 

Chain Link 1 - Bottomless Trap Hole attempts to destroy Stardust Dragon.

Chain Link 2 - Assault Mode Activate (Stardust Dragon is Tributed).

 

Resolving...

 

Chain Link 2 - Stardust Dragon/Assault Mode is Special Summoned.

Chain Link 1 - Bottomless Trap Hole fizzles as the monster that triggered its activation (i.e. Stardust Dragon) is no longer available, so there is nothing it can destroy.

 

Oh, and can you chain Divine Wrath to Colossal Fighter's effect to gain attack?

 

"This card gains 100 ATK for every Warrior-Type monster in any Graveyard" is a Continuous Effect. It does not activate and does not create a chain and therefore you cannot use Divine Wrath against it.

Thank you, although I would like to point out that I KNEW these things, and my friends did not believe me

[Luis El Lincer]

i activate PHANTOM OF CHAOS effect and target THE DARK CREATOR in my grave, my opponent waits till my THE DARK CREATOR is removed to chain with his enemy controller and take over my PHANTOM OF CHAOS...

 

question: do i get priority on the ignition effect of my DARK CREATOR anyways??

 

i read in the ruling that removing the effect monster from play happens at resolution

[darkwolf777]

i read in the ruling that removing the effect monster from play happens at resolution

 

As ruled, removing the monster is not a cost and is occurs at resolution.

 

After Phantom of Chaos gains its new effects and has resolved, you should be able to call Priority on the Ignition effect of Dark Creator, and they would have to chain Enemy Controller.

 

When resolving, they steal your PoC first, but you still get to Special Summon your Dark Monster.

 

 

The only reason i'm not sure is that usually when calling priority of Ignition Monster Effect is concerned, it is usually when a monster is Summoned, though I don't see why it couldn't work here too, but i'd have to test first which I can't do until i either get my DS back or get Tag Force 4 again.

Can I activate ZERO-MAX from the hand?

[evilfusion]

No. Zero-MAX can't be activated unless your hand is 0, and while it is in your hand, your hand is not zero. You must set Zero-MAX and then activate it.

[-Berserker-]

Magical Hats+Skull Zoma... Does it work?

[Expelsword]

Why can you use Normal, Equip, and Continuous Spell Cards the turn they are set?
