Following on from D_X's example of activating SJ himself when he summons a monster, I have placed the Turn Player with 'priority' before the Opponent activating the same Spell Speed 3 card. A wacky scenario, but ...

Ok, so if you use your priority for Torrential Tribute, pass priority to me and I activate Solemn Judgement, does Torrential fizzle? Or can I jump in with SJ before you activate TT? How would this play out? Is the Pineapple Blast example because the conditions for activation of both PB and...

My Body as a shield? I thought 'My Body as a Shield' could not be activated during the damage step?

Zero Gravity .. ah! And something that really gets up a player's nose when they have just declared an attack with a Mage Powered monster... Reverse Trap Collected Power <flicks through cards in nostalgic fervour>

Phew a lotta good ideas moving around here. my 2 cents for Soul Exchange vs. Exiled would be that the effect of SE would linger as Exiled clearly says 'this card' - so you could not use Soul Exchange's target - the effect is active until you use it within a legal tribute scenario. As to...

Hang on, not quite. If you summon, but do not activate a monster effect, priority passes to me, I can then activate Just Desserts (say), you cannot then activate something and make it chain link 1 - you are chaining to my card. I don't think so. You can activate the effect of the monster...

I agree - a nice walk through of the vagaries of timings with effects and spell speeds etc.. As Blade146 pointed out - monsters don't have priority, players do. What you have described is the interplay between continuous and triggered/ignition effects and their spell speed. If I can keep...

I suspect that the ruling will come back saying you can target tokens with PWWB, as the activation was correct (discard one card, and the opponent had a card at activation that could be bounced - a token stands in for a card). Tokens can be targeted by Compulsory (or PWWB) as can Fusion...

Indeed he was not wrong - I missed the first part of the last sentence, and did the last bit ;)

See the ruling on Spellbinding Circle. When the monster is tributed, the card (spellbinding, and by implication CotH) remains meaninglessly on the field. :)

If you want to draw cards in a burn deck you could consider Des Lacooda. once you have Messenger of Peace (or some other block) in place you can flip away to your heart's content (within the Game Rules of course). Great with Solemn Wishes and Fire Princess. One catch though is that you can...

Because it cannot target itself, your opponent cannot use Fiends Hand Mirror to redirect MST against itself. In this case FHM is destroyed by MST. :)

Question then: Are the effects of Man-Eater Bug and the first effect of Black Luster Soldier EotB not-targetting then? In both these cases these cards can use their own effects against themselves. I would have thought that because you select one monster as the victim of the effect that they...

At an event this weekend gone where I was spectating (junior was dueling this time) there were some misplays I noted: 1. Player A equipped his defence position spirit reaper with Rod of Silence then ended his turn. He was new, there was no judge around so I corrected him. It didn't feel...

Daivahataka - Thanks for chasing down the ARRJ reference. I used to read this, but since RONIN I have come to rely on technology so missed this. Chaosruler - thanks for the patience. It doesn't feel right though - I think that the intention of Cold Wave was to inhibit the playing of a...

The above is the conclusion I have come to - but this does not cover the question of face up continuous etc - see post above.

I can see where some of the confusion is coming from. The text for Cold Wave is >>>> Cold Wave Normal Spell This card can only be activated at the start of Main Phase 1. Until your next turn, neither player can play or Set any Spell or Trap Cards. >>>> It does not say 'cannot...

I am not so sure about this. There are no rulings and nothing on 'lists'. The card stops you playing (that is moving from your hand to the field and activating) or setting (moving from your hand to the field face down). Nowhere does it say 'and negate the effect of face up continuous...

Interesting twist If I have an already active Ultimate Offering from my previous turn then I am pretty sure I can use it's effect to summon many monsters with impunity. Freedom from torrential tribute etc. Swarm in Security!
