Greiga Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 If I made an Xyz that said "When you do X, this card gains a level (starting at level 0)." it would be legal right? Because isn't it that card text > rulebook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Nu-13 Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Well, pretty sure that could work. Yeah, card text is over the rulebook, like with Greed Quasar. Technically, monsters cannot have level higher than 12, but he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Fascist Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 So, If I made a card that stated you have to open a booster pack, would it be usable in tournements if Konami printed it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilfusion Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 If I made an Xyz that said "When you do X, this card gains a level (starting at level 0)." it would be legal right? Because isn't it that card text > rulebook? That's not what that line in the rulebook actually means, though. That line means that if the card text contradicts ordinary rules, the card takes precedence. For example, Mataza the Zapper can attack twice a turn, even though the rulebook states monsters can only declare an attack once per turn. Same with how monsters cannot ordinarily exist in the S/T zone or S/Ts cannot normally exist in the Monster Zone. There simply is no such thing as Level 0. Level 1 is the lowest Level. And Xyz cannot have Levels by virtue of the mechanic and use of Rank. These aren't "rules" as much as the laws of the game mechanics. Theoretically, you could create a custom card to override it in some manner, but you'd have to jump through more hoops than it's worth. Custom cards that go out of their way to break the rules of a game mechanic are usually very tricky to work with. So, If I made a card that stated you have to open a booster pack, would it be usable in tournements if Konami printed it? No. There are no cards that allow you to interact with other objects outside of the Field and cards in the duel. Can you use the effect of Honest if Banisher of the Radiance/Dimensional Fissure is in play?Yes. I've seen it done before. No. Just because you've seen it done does not mean it's legal. Honest "sends to the Graveyard" as a cost. You cannot fulfill the cost because of Macro/Fissure/Banisher, because cards cannot be "sent to the Graveyard" while those cards are in play. Therefore, you cannot activate Honest. If a card's cost specifically tells you to put the card somewhere that it cannot exist in, you cannot fulfill the cost. Genex Ally Birdman cannot bounce a Token or Extra Deck monster to the hand as a cost because those monsters cannot exist in the hand. You can "discard" or "Tribute" as a cost, but you cannot "send to Graveyard" or "Discard to Graveyard". Only costs have this restriction. Effects that bounce, send, or return can still work (Super Polymerization still works while Banisher/etc is out, because the cost is to "discard" and sending monsters to the Graveyard is the effect).

Technically, monsters cannot have level higher than 12, but he can. There is no rule that monsters cannot have levels over 12. Even monsters who can only have levels that state (max 12) such as Fortune Ladies can have their levels increased beyond that by other effects.

Zowayix Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 In Traditional Format, if the opponent has Victory Dragon and I win the first 2 Duels of a Match, is the opponent allowed to continue to the third Duel in the hopes of winning the Match through Victory Dragon's effect?

No. A Match means 2/3 games. You won 2 games, so you won the match already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's saying that he won 2 Duels in a Match and wondering if his opponent can win the Match in Game 3 using Victory Dragon. He cannot, because there is no Game 3. One player won Games 1 and 2. He won the match already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDorago Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 When Ptolemys M7 attaches a "The Sacred" Xyz as material to Xyz Summon itself, do all of the Xyz Materials attached to the "Sacred" Xyz transfer over to Ptolemys like with Utopia Ray?

Yes. It even says this explicitly (at least on the DN version). Number C39 and M7 both are used in identical fashions. They can use a specific Xyz as Material and that Xyz's Materials are also Materials for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card to target 1 monster on either player's Graveyard or side of the field; return it to the hand. You cannot use this effect the turn you used a "The Sacred" Xyz Monster to Xyz Summon this card. I don't see where it says it attaches the Xyz Materials of the used monster, unless you mean the part where it says "as its Xyz Materials."

IceDorago Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Thanks, thought so. Didn't think it would make any sense to have to detach everything to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synchronized Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Can you use Burial from a Different Dimension to return monster(s) to your Graveyard if Dimensional Fissure/Banisher of the Radiance is active? I'm assuming yes, because it says "return" and not "send", so neither one of them would conflict with the effects of the RFG monsters. Just looking for some clarification.

No. Any banished card can be returned from the banished zone to the Graveyard. "Return" seems most often used for banished cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
