Yu-Gi-Oh! Rulings Questions


Recommended Posts

If you have White Dragon Ninja on the field, and you activate Safe Zone, and your opponent chains Dark Bribe, can they actually activate Bribe legally? Bribe's effect (and Solemn's, for that matter) do say "destroy", but Ninja prevents your Spell and Trap Cards from being destroyed. So what's the ruling there?

 

My understanding is this: Ninja only prevents your S/Ts from being destroyed by card effects. They can still have their activations negated. So you can use Dark Bribe, which will negate Safe Zone's activation, but not destroy it. The card will still be drawn.

 

Because the activation was negated, the effect of Safe Zone did not resolve, and the card will be sent to the Graveyard. (Like with LADD).

Does Book of Life work even if you cannot banish? (e.g. your opponent has no cards in his/her graveyard)

 

You cannot activate cards whose effects you must perform cannot be perform. If there are no monsters in the Graveyard to banish, or if there are cards preventing you from banishing (Imperial Iron Wall, Kycoo The Ghost Destroyer, Chaos Hunter, etc), then you cannot activate Book of Life.

 

If cards are chained so that these monsters appear (or if Imperial Iron Wall is chained), you'll still Special Summon, but the monster wont be banished.

1) Yes, but if you get the result that would destroy exactly 2, nothing gets destroyed.

Dicephoon vs SR, go!

 

 

I...guess? You can declare any card so long as it's a real card.

 

You can declare a Forbidden card.

 

Though why bother naming a Synchro or Xyz, even if it is legal? You could just declare "Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End" or something they couldn't possibly have, if you want to deliberately get it wrong.

Well I know what I'm doing next time I use Dark Worlds.

I control a face-up Doomcaliber Knight.

 

I activate Dragged Down, I discard their Snoww, they discard mine. How would this chain resolve if I wanted to negate their Snoww with Doomcal?

 

Does it go:

 

CL1: Their Snoww

CL2: Doomcal

CL3: My Snoww

 

or:

 

CL1 My Snoww

CL2: Their Snoww

CL3: Doomcal

 

?

 

Due to SEGOC rules, first the Turn Player's mandatory effects (Your Snoww) would be Link 1, followed by your opponent's mandatory effect (Opponent's Snoww) as Link 2. After that, other Triggers can be activated/applied. Doomcaliber would activate as Chain Link 3, and negate the link immediately previous to it (Opponent's Snoww).

Oh ok, I miss-interpreted turn player priority.

 

And thanks for clearing that up, now I know I can side Doomcal's in perfectly in DWs.

what happens if I hit mind control from diamond dude?

 

During your next Main Phase, you can activate Mind Control's effect to take control of an opponent's monster until the End Phase. The monster cannot attack and cannot be Tributed.

 

Unlike Pot of Duality, where Special Summoning is a Condition of activating the card, and so will be bypassed with Diamond Dude, Mind Control's conditions are not exclusive to activating Mind Control, but rather, a condition placed on what you can do with the affected monster.

Can someone explain Inzektors to me?

 

Do they gain their effects that say "If this card is sent while equipped..." if the monster itself is destroyed, similar to the Aklys ruling? Like, if Dragonfly is equipped with Gigamantis and I Dark Hole, do they get a Summon?

 

Inzektors have Aklys ruling, except the monster itself activates, rather than the Equip. If the equipped monster dies or is flipped down, the Equips are sent to the Graveyard, but do not activate an Inzektor's effect.
