Yu-Gi-Oh! Rulings Questions


Recommended Posts

I summon CyDra, activate Advance Force and tribute to summon a wicked/egyptian god. Does this work? What's the ruling on AF with monsters requiring 3 tributes?

 

No. You need 3 Tributes, or monsters equaling that amount (like Double Coston + any). Advance Force doesn't say it counts as 2 Tributes, it just says you can Tribute Summon a level 7+ mon for the level 5+ monster. Dreadroot, Avatar, Obelisk, and Eraser specifically state you can only Normal Summon by using 3 Tributes, and since the effect of Advance Force does not fit the requirement, you may not do it.

They both chain to the Spell and your opponent can choose which is Chain Link 2 or 3.

 

 

 

Resolving in reverse.

 

Chain Link 3- LADD 2 reduces ATK/DEF by 500 to negate your Spell.

 

Chain Link 2- LADD 1 does not do anything, as the Spell is already negated by LADD 2.

 

Chain Lin 1- Your Spell is negated. It does not do anything.

I play Rekindling and Special Summon 3 Flamvell Magician and 1 Flamvell Firedog.

Can my opponent play Bottomless Trap Hole?

 

Yes, because you Special Summoned a monster with 1500 ATK or more.

 

Bottomless Trap Hole will only destroy and remove from play the monsters that could trigger it. Therefore, only Flamvell Firedog will be destroyed and removed. The three Flamvell Magicians will remain on the field (since they have less than 1500 ATK.)

The idea behind it is that Armory Arm checks for the ATK value on the card while it is in the Graveyard. If the card is no longer in the Graveyard, then it cannot check the ATK value, similar to how Black Whirlwind checks during resolution the ATK of the monster that was Normal Summoned and if that monster is not face-up on the field, then it cannot compare the ATK value to search the Deck with.

 

I did test it and posted here and yes it works in WC2010 but does not work in Tag Force 5. Either it was bugged before, or there was a rule change.

 

I don't have any idea how it would be ruled now. Whether it is bugged or has up to date rulings, I couldn't say.

 

I have yet to test out similar effects, such as Elemental Hero Flame Wingman, but would be worth a shot to compare and see if it was just one issue with a card, or an overall issue with the rulings and those types of cards x.o

So... Summon Coelacanth with Mausoleum or something else. Activate it's effect. Summon Royal Swamp Eel, Oyster Meister, Fishborg Blaster and a lv 4 fish. Synchro RSE with the lv 4 and into Colossal; Oyster and Fishborg into Armory Arm and a token will be summoned. Discard to summon Fishborg and tune it with Coelacanth into another colossal. Equip an opponent's monster with Armory and suicide both colossals. That would work...

Well, Creature Swap doesn't target, but that's not the point: the effect of Creature Swap will disappear because if one can't be swapped, neither will be.

 

Note: This will only occur if that monster is the only valid target for one reason or another. You cannot choose it if you have a valid target on the field.

Three Q's for you...

 

Can Fishborg Blaster Special Summon itself?

 

Can Cloudan-Storm Dragon be Special Summoned from the Graveyard, hand, or deck with its effect, b/c it don't state where it can be, just wondering....

 

My friend, he says this...

 

When you activate Monster Reborn, he can use call of the haunted to grab it bakc, then you don't get it because he used the target, is that true?

1) Fishborg Blaster states that if you control a level 3 or below WATER, you can discard 1 to Special Summon it from the Grave. Fishborg must already be in the Grave to use this effect.

 

2) No. Summoning Conditions apply in the hand unless specifically stated otherwise.

 

3) Yes, because chains resolve backwards.

 

Chain Link 1: You activate Monster Reborn, targeting opponent's Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Chain Link 2: Your opponent chains with Call of the Haunted, targeting that same Blue-Eyes.

 

Resolving

 

Chain Link 2: Call of the Haunted Special Summons the Blue-Eyes.

Chain Link 1: The targeted monster is no longer in the Graveyard. Monster Reborn fizzles with no effect.
