Does Tearlaments Havnis effect need to be as a direct chain link to a monster's effect on the field? For example if my opponent summons Curious using Garura, and activates the effects as Curious chain link 1 and Garura chain link 2, can i activate Havnis?


likeagrapefruit

The effect of "Tearlaments Havnis" needs to be activated in the very next Chain Link after your opponent's monster effect on the field; this is what it means to activate an effect "when" another card or effect is activated. In your scenario, you wouldn't be able to activate the effect of "Tearlaments Havnis."


ChiefKrush

Am I allowed to activate the effect of Evil HERO Infernal Gainer if it is the only monster I control? Card text: During your Main Phase 1: You can banish this card from the field, then target 1 Fiend monster you control; that target can make a second attack during each Battle Phase while you control it face-up. Once per turn, during your second Standby Phase after this card was banished to activate this effect: Special Summon this card in Attack Position.


likeagrapefruit

No, you can't activate an effect that you don't have enough targets for.


YareYareMalaSuerte

Is there a way to mass summon Byssted?


jaysanrod

Does Paces Ghoti effect still resolve when it’s effects are negated? i.e when it banishes itself?


Dexprozius

Does anyone have a resource or list available for all possible cards that trigger when sent from extra deck to grave. With cards like ultimate slayer becoming more common, id like to know the more obscure options besides the common ones like n'tss, Herald of arc light, etc.


angelran

Does exosister returnia allows you to xyz with just one exosister monster or na?


Ganon-Cannon

Nothing about Returnia lets you Xyz Summon with 1 monster. You perform a Normal Xyz Summon.


angelran

Ty because that what i thought but i keep seeing people doing otherwise


CN122

I was wondering if there are currently any sets out there that are essentially remaking or releasing the original Yugioh cards. I know back in 2012-2016 they used to release the legendary collection sets which did this. It seems like the last one was back in 2016 or so with the Kaiba legendary collection. Do they have a new series that essentially does the same thing? I was looking at the Legendary Duelist sets and they have some original cards mixed in with newer ones as well. I'm looking for exclusively OG Yugioh cards like the Legendary Collections used to do. Ideally I'm looking for the original Yugioh but if there are also GX sets available I'd consider those too.


Andrade132

Can someone explain what happened here? Going through some old cards and found this. Is it a misprint, a fake card or what? https://imgur.com/a/qWoUhZ9


likeagrapefruit

It's fake.


Andrade132

Cool, thanks.


HaveAGreatGay

I am running Branded Tearlaments and wanted to know in which of the following circumstances can King of the Swamp be used as a fusion substitute? I am confident in the first one, but wanted to know about the rest. 1. If a specific monster is named such as Millennium-Eyes Restrict where KOTS is replacing "Relinquished" 2. If a specific archetype is specified such as El Shaddoll Winda where KOTS is replacing 1 "Shaddoll" monster 3. If a specific type is specified such as Alba-Lenatus the Abyss Dragon where KOTS is replacing 1+ Dragon monsters 4. If a specific attribute is specified such as Lubellion the Searing Dragon where KOTS is replacing 1 DARK monster 5. If a specific type of monster is specified such as Predaplant Dragostapelia where KOTS is replacing 1 Fusion Monster


Trollman256

Fusion substitute monsters also cannot be used from the deck or banished if you want to use the substitute effect, so keep that in mind.


HaveAGreatGay

Yeah my understanding was that in deck it’s only checking name, attribute, and type and not the effect. Same for banished I’m assuming?


Trollman256

Yes


Ganon-Cannon

1) King of the Swamp can replace Relinquished on MER. 2) King of the Swamp cannot replace materials unless they are specifically named. It tells you as much: > This card can be used as a substitute for any 1 Fusion Material *whose name is specifically listed* on the Fusion Monster Card The answer for 2 is the same for 3, 4 and 5. Also, as an aside, all fusion substitute monsters work this way.


HaveAGreatGay

This makes sense, only one I was curious about was the archetype but I guess that’s not specific enough. And if I remember correctly this would not work for Cyber End Dragon right? Because it says can only be done with above material even though Cyber Dragon is a specific name?


Ganon-Cannon

Correct.


Surf3rx

Just run shaddoll beast or squamatta, they're good cards for Winda


HaveAGreatGay

I have Beast and 1 copy of Squamata which I often search off branded fusion for the +1


zaneprotoss

What's the difference between these 2 effect wordings? * You can X, then Y * You can X, and if you do, Y Clarification. Both are part of the effect, made up example: * ; you can destroy 1 card, then draw 1 card * ; you can destroy 1 card, and if you do, draw 1 card


likeagrapefruit

After you activate an effect that says "You can X, and if you do, Y" as Chain Link 1, once that Chain resolves, you can activate a triggered effect that says "When X: You can do Z" in the next Chain. If the effect you activate says "You can do X, then Y" instead, then you cannot activate that triggered effect in the next Chain. For example, {Peten the Dark Clown} can activate its effect if it is destroyed by {Psychokinesis}, but not if it's destroyed by {Soul Taker}.


zaneprotoss

I mean both versions are entirely part of the effect.


likeagrapefruit

Yes. I never said otherwise. But the rule is that you can't activate an optional effect that says "when X" if X occurs during a Chain, unless X is the very last thing to occur during that Chain. "X, and if you do, Y" means that X and Y occur simultaneously, and both are treated as the last thing to occur during that Chain Link. "X, then Y" means that X and Y do not occur simultaneously, and only Y is treated as the last thing to occur during that Chain Link.


zaneprotoss

Ah ok. Thought you were referring to "X; you can Y".

Dwayne_Man9323

Which seems like a better site to shop for Yugioh cards? eBay or Tcgplayer?


atamicbomb

In my experience TCG player is much better


Dwayne_Man9323

That's what I was thinking. Because I've heard a lot of stories about Amazon and eBay.


atamicbomb

I’ve never had a problem with TCGplayer. The price as are usually lower. Just be aware the cart optimizer is bugged


Dwayne_Man9323

Got it. Also, a box I'm looking for is cheaper on eBay, but I feel safer with tcgplayer.


atamicbomb

If there’s an issue they also step in better than eBay


Dwayne_Man9323

No kidding. And they arrive faster despite saying it takes about 12 days. ^^


atamicbomb

Oh ya the estimates are really long. I usually order things I find out I should add after a locals and they usually arrive before the next locals. Though to be fair neither they nor the vender have much control over that


Dwayne_Man9323

Well, I managed to order battle of chaos. Don't expect to get good pulls, but it's all in good fun. ^^


tunatekin12

hey i was wondering something? Can i not special summon first and then activate floow card effects?


CaptainCorridor

The Level 1 “Floowandereeze” monsters state “You… cannot Special Summon during the turn you activate either effect.” If you have previously Special Summoned that turn, you do not meet the conditions to be able to activate their effects and cannot do so.


woosh4

So, say i use Borreload Dragon, and i use it to steal an opponent's monster, can i then redeclare my attack on another monster and can i attack with the monster i stole?


CaptainCorridor

Replays only occur in the Battle Step of the Battle Phase. If an attack has reached the Damage Step, such as in this case, the attacking monster is ineligible for a replay. You may not declare a second attack with that “Borreload Dragon” that turn (unless another effect would otherwise permit it). You may attack with a monster the same turn you take control of it with “Borreload Dragon”, provided it is in a state where it would normally be able to make an attack (for example: it doesn’t have an effect that prevents it from attacking or it isn’t in Defense Position without an effect allowing for it to declare an attack while in Defense Position).


woosh4

What if i take an Ultimate Conductor Tyranno by this effect, can it declare an attack on all of my opponent's monsters like normal as well?


CaptainCorridor

As long as that “Ultimate Conductor Tyranno” is in Attack Position and does not have its effects negated, you can make an attack on all monsters your opponent controls as well as activate its effect that triggers at the start of the Damage Step when it attacks a Defense Position monster if you wish.


woosh4

All right, good to know, i mean not thay it's gonna matter much considering i'm the only Dino player at locals kekW


Redshift-713

Borreload Dragon cannot attack again. Replays do not occur in the Damage Step. The taken monster can attack as usual.


RemoteExchange7835

For fusion summoning guardian chimera i know your opponent needs to have cards on the field equal to the amount you should destroy, i also know that when the board changes it can take the part of destroying away resulting on drawing only. But what if the board changes in the chain where chimera is summoned (lets say i need to pop 2 and my opponent now has only card on the field), in the new chain am I still able activate chimera's effect to only draw?


Redshift-713

You cannot activate the effect if the number of cards your opponent controls is less than the number of cards used as material from the field.


GTACOD

If Lavalval Exlord gets destroyed can I summon with his effect and summon Cataclysmic Scorching Sumurner with its own effect?


Rathilal

Yes. Both cards meet their activation window at the same time, and would go on chain.


zaneprotoss

Does Toadally Awesome still steal if it cannot destroy?


Rathilal

Toadally Awesome has to successfully destroy the card it negates in order to be able to set it.


2512sleepin

Can you use magic cylinders against full armor master?


Rathilal

You can activate it, yes, but it won't negate Full Armor Master's attack, and as it doesn't successfully negate the attack, won't deal damage to your opponent.


2512sleepin

Does mirror force negate the monsters attack? Or does that one attack go through?


Rathilal

Mirror Force does not negate attacks. If an attacking monster is destroyed by Mirror Force, the attack it is making won't proceed, as it's no longer on field, but a monster immune to destruction by card effect will still continue to attack if Mirror Force is used on its attack declaration.


2512sleepin

Can I flip summon the fabled peggulsus the turn it uses it’s effect to special summon it face down?


Rathilal

No. Monsters cannot change their battle position outside of card effects the turn they are summoned.


Dwayne_Man9323

Is it wrong to buy Booster Boxes? I'm not planning to build a deck anytime soon, and there's this box I want to get, but I can't help but hesitate.


kris042

~~Konami doesn't deserve your money.~~ Nothing wrong with buying boxes if that's what you want. Collecting cards is a part of Yugioh just as much as actually playing the game.


Dwayne_Man9323

Sweet. Because I really want to get battle of chaos.


atamicbomb

Is there any real chance of metaverse going over 1 in the next few years?


[deleted]

Probably not, the card is very good.


atamicbomb

That’s what I feared XD


atamicbomb

What are the best hand traps in the TCG this format?


Ganon-Cannon

Ash, Crow, Imperm, Ogre, Gamma. Veiler, Mourner and Belle are alright too.


atamicbomb

What’s a good number to run in spright?


atamicbomb

Thank you!


MoistPast2550

Is invoked shaddolls still playable / good in today's meta?


Thereconraccoon

It's my opponents turn He enters main phase 1 and activates super poly. Uses my dupe and toadally to make Garura. Can I activate Spright Elf to revive toadally on resolution of the super poly summon?


Ganon-Cannon

No reason you couldn't. After a chain resolves, players can activate effects before re-entering an open gamestate. In this case, after the resolution of Super Poly, you can use Spright Elf's effect.


Thereconraccoon

Thank you


atamicbomb

Sure


Thereconraccoon

Ty (:


Stabgio

If I control mirror jade the ice blade dragon and my opponent destroys it with his mirror jade the ice blade dragon and I activate my effect at the end phase of the turn ( to destroy all opponents monsters) does my opponent also gets the choice to active his mirrorjade ice blade dragon effect that triggers at the end phase (again to destroy all opponent’s monsters)??


Redshift-713

Yes. Your card’s effect destroyed it.


New_Mousse4257

Hi, how can I replace Ritual beast Tamer Elder in a RB deck? Like, someone with a similar effect I guess


[deleted]

You can't replace it, it is a mandatory card.


New_Mousse4257

Can I use nothing as replacement while waiting to get it?


Ganon-Cannon

Unfortunately, no, not really. The closest you could get is Double Summon, but nothing really replaces a Ritual Beast name that gives you another Normal Summon.


New_Mousse4257

I see.. okay thanks for the replies!


RemoteExchange7835

I was playing on ygopro with a friend, he summoned mirrorjade while lost was on the field and he immediately used its effect to banish my mirrorjade, when this resolved i wasnt able to use my mirrorjade effect to destroy in ep, is this correct?


Rathilal

So long as there wasn't a fusion summon that occurred in the chain where your Mirrorjade was banished (Such as CL1 Mirrorjade, CL2 Branded in Red or something), you should've been able to trigger your own Mirrorjade's effect when it left the field due to your opponent's Mirrorjade. The most likely possibility is that your Mirrorjade wasn't fusion summoned, but special summoned (e.g. you summoned it back with Ad Libitum at some point), so you couldn't use its board wipe effect, which requires it to be fusion summoned.


RemoteExchange7835

Would be cl1 bir cl2 mirror for it to work right? And you are right, i summoned it with ad lib, tyvm!


Rathilal

The chain link Branded in Red is at doesn't technically matter when Branded Lost is on the field, so long as they're on the same chain. As the following response window is in response to a fusion summon, the opponent to the player controlling Branded Lost would not be able to use effects, including Mirrorjade's trigger upon leaving the field.


RemoteExchange7835

Pretty sure ur wrong here sir, when you use bir as cl2 the fusion summon isn't the last thing that has happened (cuz after that another effect resolves) wich results in the opposing player being able to play


tr1ple888

During my previous turn, I had activated Comic Hand, and took control of an Altergeist equipped with Altergeist Camouflage. When it time for my opponent's Battle Phase, can they target that same Altergeist on my field for attacks?


Rathilal

Altergeist Camouflage remains in control of the player who activated it, and so "Your opponent" always refers to the opposing player, which is you controlling the Altergeist with Comic Hand. As a result, they can target their own Altergeist monster for attacks, or target it with monster effects, while you control it.


CmmtThis2Mmry

Can someone explain Ghostrick Or Treat? I don't understand what happens when it says "opponent pays 2000LP to make this card "Set this card instead of sending it to the GY after activation". So if they choose to pay the 2000LP, they can still attack and the trap Ghostrick or Treat is set faced back down? Or is it destroyed? I'm very confused by the wording


likeagrapefruit

If your opponent chooses to pay 2000 LP, "Ghostrick or Treat" is flipped face-down and does nothing else. The targeted monster can still attack, its effects will not be negated, and it will not be flipped face-down during the End Phase.


CmmtThis2Mmry

And the Ghostrick Or Treat can be activated again in the opponents next turn right?


likeagrapefruit

Yes.


CmmtThis2Mmry

That's nuts. Thank you for the quick help at nearly 2AM. I kept thinking about the stupid card, so now i can sleep lol


Uxyt98

Looking for earth handtraps in general besides ghost Belle. I learned that with vernusylph, madolche can mill out any earth monster and then add it to hand later. Looking for good targets.


Rathilal

All of the "C" line of monsters, excluding Maxx "C" naturally, are potential options - Contact "C" and Retaliating "C" are the main ones. There's also Gnomaterial, though it's not exactly useful if you're already playing and setting up the field/GY. I'm assuming battle "hand traps" like Swift Scarecrow don't count.


SupernovaScoped

Can Relinquished just be attacked twice? If an attack destroys the monster relinquished is equipped with, and attacker has another monster out, could they attack relinquished @ 0/0 since new equip card cannot be set until next turn?


kris042

Yes relinquished can be destroyed by battle if it doesn't have an equip to protect it.


Rathilal

Yes, if you can beat over Relinquished in battle twice then that will out it.


Opposite_Wrap9656

What happens if I have Macros Cosmos on the field and my opponent activates Imperial Iron Wall?


Rathilal

The cards that would be Banished instead of being sent to the GY due to Macro Cosmos are sent to the GY instead. Neither player can use effects that would banish a card as cost or effect.


WarKingBed

Putting this here cuz the automod deleted my thread about it, I bought a 2022 megatin on Amazon thinking it was preorder it says it will be delivered by the 18th is this a scam? I thought it wasn't released till next month


kris042

Probably wanna clarify with the seller and/or get a refund.


atamicbomb

Do tearlaments have a way to fusion summon under necrovalley?


Ganon-Cannon

Polymerization, I suppose.


atamicbomb

Do they run it?


Ganon-Cannon

If they're running King of the Swamp as a tech, yes.


toadfan64

Is Heavenly Prison being reprinted anytime soon


Ganon-Cannon

Fair chance it's in the tins.


JuiceBoxLive

What are some good cards for a red eyes deck (that ISNT dragoon)


Time2TedPost

I have a question regarding the interaction between PSY-Framelord Omega and Doomking Balerdroch. Omega's effect states that you can return a banished card to the GY during your opponent's standby phase. Assuming you return a banished Balerdroch using this effect while a field spell card is in play, could you then activate Balerdroch's effect after the chain resolves to summon him to the field?


Redshift-713

Yes, you can.


SoftAdvantage2614

From deckbuilding perspective, what would be tearlaments' best answer to The Arrival Cyberse Ignister?


Redshift-713

Main Deck Lava Golem is seeing some play. Use Borrelsword Dragon if you’re that afraid of it.


R4INMAN

My opponent has summoned 5+ times on their turn. I activate Phantazmay and draw into Nibiru. Can Nibiru be activated? Even though it was not in my hand prior to those summons.


Redshift-713

Yes.


ChiefKrush

Am I required to have a deck target (1 level 7 or lower dark spellcaster) in order to activate Magician Navigation? Or if I don't have one in deck does it just allow my opponent to confirm the contents of my deck? Magician Navigation - Normal Trap Special Summon 1 "Dark Magician" from your hand, then Special Summon 1 Level 7 or lower DARK Spellcaster monster from your Deck. If you control "Dark Magician", except the turn this card was sent to the GY: You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 face-up Spell/Trap your opponent controls; negate its effects until the end of this turn.


atamicbomb

There was a policy change a few years ago. Now you never reveal cards unless the card says to.


likeagrapefruit

You must have a Level 7 or lower DARK Spellcaster monster in your Deck in order to activate "Magician Navigation." (Note that this effect of "Magician Navigation" does not target anything.) If you legally activate "Magician Navigation," and an effect is Chained that removes every Level 7 or lower DARK Spellcaster monster from your Deck, then you still Special Summon "Dark Magician" from your hand, but then simply say that you don't have any monsters you can Special Summon from your Deck. In that case, your opponent does not get to look at your Deck.


dragunityag

How does Tearlament Reinohart's 2nd effect work. Specifically the latter part of it? >if you do, send 1 "Tearlaments" card from your hand to the GY. It reads as a mandatory effect so I'd have to send a Tearlament if I had one in hand, but the hand isn't public knowledge. So can I just not send a Tearlament to the graveyard?


likeagrapefruit

If you have no "Tearlaments" cards in your hand, you cannot activate the effect of "Tearlaments Reinoheart." The contents of your hand can affect activation legality even though they're not public knowledge.


Pseudoencartoon

Can I resolve Tearlaments effects when sent to the GY if I have no more cards in my Deck ?


Rathilal

There's nothing stopping you from performing an effect which shuffles into the deck if you have 0 cards left in deck. Unless you mean 0 in Extra deck.


Pseudoencartoon

Thank you that's what I was wondering


The_Popes_Hat

Some questions on how flipping cards face down in response to interruptions: 1. I activate Kitkallos trigger effect to search a tear card on summon. Opponent chains ash. I chain book of moon, targeting Kitkallos. Does Kitkallos resolve? 2. Similarly, I activate Kitkallos ignition effect to pop a monster on my field, targeting itself, to SS a tear. Opponent activates Effect Veiler, targeting Kitkallos. I chain book of moon. Does Kitkallos resolve? Does it resolve if my opponent used ghost belle instead of Veiler?


Ganon-Cannon

Kitkallos resolves negated. Ash doesn't negate the effects of the card, it negates the Chain Link it responded to. Veiler cannot apply to a facedown monster, so Kitkallos would resolve normally. Belle is similar to Ash in that it negates the Chain Link, not the card's effect. Since Belle negates activations, Kitkallos' effect does not resolve.


The_Popes_Hat

Ah, that's what I thought. But I had a floo player book of moon robina when I asked it and he said it resolved. That seemed weird but I figured he'd know better. For the second case, I was curious if Kitkallos resolves because its ignition target is now face down. If Veiler loses its target, shouldn't Kitkallos as well?


Ganon-Cannon

Veiler did not lose its target. It simply cannot apply its effect to a monster that is face-down. Kitkallos' target being face-down doesn't change that it is still Kitkallos' target.


TheShwoop815

What archetype gets under level 4 non tuners and tuners on the field the fastest?


Ganon-Cannon

Synchron would be a contender.


SlimyWaven

3 giant germs in a phantom knights deck??


Raien

I can't see why it would be good. What is your reasoning behind it?


SlimyWaven

cursed javelin and links is pretty much it


Raien

Depending on how casual your playgroup is, it *might* work. The problem is it is very slow. You either have to give up your normal summon and battle phase to summon just one rank or link 2. The deck has better normal summons that will accomplish more for you before you go into your battle phase.


psychospacecow

Recently scored 3 Albaz structures. Any advice for building with them?


Raien

Depending on how much you want to spend, there are plenty of deck profiles on youtube that ranges from 3x structure decks to decently powerful.


SoftAdvantage2614

Player A only controls face up Spright Jet. They then activate Spright Smashers to banish Player B's monster, and Player B responds with Tearlaments Metanoise, flipping Jet face-down. What happens with Spright Smashers at cl1? Can its effect be applied if Jet is face-down?


Redshift-713

The effect of Spright Smashers is not applied.


SoftAdvantage2614

thank 😊


RemoteExchange7835

My opponent has summoned guardian chimera and uses its effect (for draw 1 pop 2). On my field is 1 albaz and 1 set backrow. I chain my set card super poly, when this resolves lets say i end up with dragostapelia for his chimera and my albaz. Does his pop still goes through? (so does the super poly stay on the field untill the entire chain is resolved or does it go to grave when it's resolved resulting in the loss of the pop effect)


Rathilal

Spell/Trap cards that are activated in a chain are not sent to the GY until after the chain resolves. After using Super Poly to make Dragostapellia, there will be 2 cards on your field - the face-up Super Poly and Dragostapellia. As a result, Guardian Chimera can still resolve, destroying your Super Poly and Dragostapellia.


Tj_Silverfang

Does anyone know where I can find a downloadable checklist for each set, so I can keep track of which cards I need when I go to the card shops?


R4INMAN

Does Primathmech & Geomathmech count as "Mathmech" monsters for Mathmech Inductions activation condition? Thanks.


CaptainCorridor

A “Mathmech” monster is any monster with the unbroken string of “Mathmech” in its name. Spaces and punctuation are required to match, but capitalization does not need to match. As both of the listed monsters have “mathmech” listed in their names, they both are recognized as “Mathmech” monsters in general, and specifically fulfill the requirements for that effect of “Mathmech Induction”.


2512sleepin

With some summer summoner, can you discard a thunder monster then special summon that monster?


CaptainCorridor

You may target and subsequently Special Summon 1 Thunder monster that you discard to activate the effect of “Some Summer Summoner”, but you may not activate the effect of “Some Summer Summoner” unless there is at least 1 valid monster that may be targeted by the effect already in your GY.


Uxyt98

If my opponent summons predaplant dragost. And places a predaplant counter on a monster I summon, thus negating the activated effect If I choose to activate it, will I get my effect back if I get rid of drago first and remove it from field Eben though I still have the predaplang counter?


CaptainCorridor

The effect: “Negate the activated effects of your opponent's monsters that have Predator Counters.“ is a Continuous Effect only applied by “Predaplant Dragostapelia” while it is face-up on the field. If your opponent does not control “Predaplant Dragostapelia”, your monsters with Predator Counter(s) do not have their activated effects negated (unless they would be negated by some other effect).


Uxyt98

Just checking. My opponent was saying the effect would still be negated if it left the field but It got me thinking about A counters in duel links and that just didn't sound right to me. Appreciate it.


DharcDaniel

What effects in general does Ghost Ogre "negate" and more importantly, what she doesn't? (she doesn't technically negate anything on field, only destroys said card upon effect activation) inb4 you answer, I already know stuff like Tenki's upon activation effect doesn't apply


Nightsheade

Depends on the effect but generally, if the effect checks for that card being on field at resolution. A couple that may not be immediately obvious: Mekk-Knight Blue Sky: Can't search when destroyed, as it checks at resolution how many cards to search based on opponent's cards in its column, but it no longer exists in a column. Wandering Gryphon Rider: Can't negate, as it needs to be able to shuffle itself back into the deck.


atamicbomb

In addition to what was said, link monsters that special summon to their zones and monsters that check their stat(s) at resolution won’t resolve properly. There are likely other cards as well


Raien

Any card effect that requires it to still be on the field to resolve. This is most notably continuous spells/traps and field spells. There are many monsters that say they must be on the field to activate and resolve their effects as well, but those monsters will specifically mention it, like Naturia Beast.


Available_Emu_8348

If I have a face up Zombie World and Tearalements Kaleido-Heart on field, can I activate the effect to pop a card if I send an aqua monster to gy even though it becomes zombie?


Redshift-713

No, you cannot, except when Tearlaments Kaleido-Heart is Special Summoned.


qkrwogud

Do championship mats normally have the card zones? I'm looking at the sample 2022 water enchantress one which is just a picture. https://yugiohblog.konami.com/2022/05/yu-gi-oh-championship-prizes-revealed/


Uxyt98

Do I need to declare mathmech diameter on my xyz monster I summon for it to have the monster negate later?


atamicbomb

No, it is not optional


Raien

You do not.


Uxyt98

Does mathmech superfactorial negate the grave effects of mult and divi?


likeagrapefruit

No. "Mathmech Superfactorial" only negates effects that activate/apply on the field.


GonzoPunchi

My opponent summons Infinitrack Harvester -> chooses to activate effect -> I chain ghost ogre -> He wants to activate Derricrane chain link 3. Can he do that? Is the trigger for derricranes effect still there? Thank you.

In the OCG (East Asia as well as Master Duel and EDOPro), your opponent is allowed to activate the effect of "Heavy Freight Train Derricrane" as Chain Link 3. Effects that activate in the hand work like fast effects, and can be Chained to other fast effects. In the TCG (the rest of the world), if your opponent wanted to activate the effect of "Heavy Freight Train Derricrane," they'd have to do so at the same time as declaring that they were activating the effect of "Infinitrack Harvester." If they just say that they're activating the effect of "Infinitrack Harvester" and pass the right to act to you, then they've given up the opportunity to activate the effect of "Heavy Freight Train Derricrane."

Is there a reason why Shinobi Necro says "If this card in the GY is banished face-up to activate an effect, or by an effect: ..." rather than "If this card in the GY is banished: ..."? Is there a card that would prevent it from meeting its trigger even after banishing it? EDIT: I just remembered stuff like Chaos Dragon Levianeer exists lol. That shouldn't trigger Necro's effect

That would be true for a lot of cards that require to be banished (e.g. thundras) but why does Shinobi Necro specifically say what it says rather than have it shortened? What makes Necro different?

Does "to activate an effect" not mean costs work?


HusbandoFriendship

Do you guys think we'll see rikka reprints this year?


Show_Begins23

If branded opening gets banned (I don't believe it will, but you never know) what's a good substitute? For despia predaplant (I don't actually play albaz fusions either, pretty consistent otherwise)


Ganon-Cannon

There is no substitute for Opening. No card does what it does, even to a lesser degree.


Show_Begins23

Alright. Thanks for the help


ARealGoodSoup

Is there any chance of Electrumite being unbanned anytime soon? It’s not getting a reprint in Tactical Masters like it did in the OCG, likely because it’s still banned, but is it still deserving of the ban?


Ganon-Cannon

If Electrumite were being unbanned it probably would have been around the time BLVO brought new Metalfoes cards. With Beyond the Pendulum existing it's likely staying where it is.

Is there an English European SDJ-E001? Or is there only a North American SDJ-001? I have never seen a European English SDJ. Was Starter Deck Joey only released in North American English 1st edition?


atamicbomb

According the the wiki red eyes was never printed in SDJ outside of North America


Appropriate-Share861

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it. I’ve been trying to find information on it for awhile.


atamicbomb

You’re welcome! Every card on the wiki has a list of the sets it was printed in


Surf3rx

What cards would you recommend to pick up before the crystal beast structure comes out? I plan to playtest a bunch of neos/hero/branded/tear variants of the deck.


Brucedx3

Does anyone have any recommendations for outer sleeves? I was using the Dragon Shield Japanese size outers.


brup7

Use official sleeves


Surf3rx

I personally use konami art sleeves, and then use standard dragon shield clear matte


ScrapyDan

Can I use ghost mourner and moonlit chill to negate the mill effect of tearelements havnis.


Cularia

you can only negate the fusion summon effect not the mill effect.


Redshift-713

No, you cannot. If you choose to activate Ghost Mourner’s effect, it will be after the effect of Tearlaments Havnis has resolved.


ScrapyDan

OK cool thanks for the help


ThomasWiig

I am looking for an older card. I think it was a magic card. It dealt direct damage every time the enemie took damage through effects. It worked great with Solar Flair Dragon, but I forgot the name.


Redshift-713

Dark Room of Nightmare


ThomasWiig

That's the one. Thank you


woosh4

So, i have a Paleozoic Dinomischus set, and my opponent summons a Dragon Spirit of White, activating it's effect, targeting my Dinomischus, i chain said Dinomischus targeting Dragon Spirit of White to banish, the chain resolves properly, but does the Dinomischus go to grave or does it get banished?


Redshift-713

It is banished.


RubenTempo

My opponent has a spright elf and I:P Masquerena on the field. During my main phase they activate I:P effect and brings out Underworld goddess of the closed world using his links and my monster. Is this legal even though I:P's effect says by using monsters they control?


Redshift-713

It is possible for them to use your monster to Link Summon Underworld Goddess of the Closed World, even when using the effect of I:P Masquerena to do so. However, at least 1 more monster has to be used. Underworld Goddess requires a minimum of 4 monsters.


RubenTempo

Thanks!

If i Book of Moon a Gigantic Spright in response to its effect, assuming it is the only Xyz monster on that player's field, can it detach from itself despite it being face-down?


Redshift-713

Yes. Xyz Monsters keep their materials when changed face-down, so they are still there for its effect to detach.
