Big Bang Shot/Opponents Monster
- Thread starter Bill
- Start date
Big Bang Shot will work for your opponent. If they gain the 400 attack points they gain the rest of Big Bang Shot's effect. All of the effect. So another words if you destroy or remove Big Bang Shot while it's equipped to your opponent's monster it will be removed from play.
Does that answer your question?
Does that answer your question?
Not really. I'm talking about this part of Big Bang Shot's text, "When the equipped monster attacks with an ATK that is higher than the DEF of a Defense Position monster, inflict the difference as Battle Damage to your opponent's Life Points". It says inflict the damage to your opponent's Life Points. Thus since I control Big Bang Shot his attacking monster is higher then my defense, then would he not take the damage, as he is my opponent.
From the FAQ:
If you equip your "Big Bang Shot" to your opponent's "Dark Magician", and "Dark Magician" attacks your "Giant Soldier of Stone", the opponent of the owner of the "Big Bang Shot" takes the damage (so your opponent, who attacked with "Dark Magician", takes 900 points of damage.)
If you equip your "Big Bang Shot" to your opponent's "Dark Magician", and "Dark Magician" attacks your "Giant Soldier of Stone", the opponent of the owner of the "Big Bang Shot" takes the damage (so your opponent, who attacked with "Dark Magician", takes 900 points of damage.)
It's important to note the FAQ, as was pointed out (which it looks like you missed). Regardless of who Big Bang Shot is equipped to, the opponent will be receiving all of the difference between the ATK and the DEF if the equipped monster attacks a Defense position monster. The card is very literal in its use.
He read too much into the card because he was thinking that if he equipped it to his opponent's Berserk Gorilla lets say that his opponent will be taking the difference in the damage. But this isn't the case because Big Bang Shot is nothing more than Spear Dragon's effect minus the position switch. So he did read too much into the card but if I said it didn't mean literally what it says then I was incorrect on that part.
The other thing to point out is if the monster already had that effect (such as "Airknight Parshath"), equipping a card like this or Fairy Meteor Crush will not go ahead and "double" the effect. This was extensively debated on several other threads on the site as well.
His opponent WILL be taking the difference in damage. If I equip my Big Bang Shot to my opponent's Berserk Gorilla, and the Berserk Gorilla attacks a Sheep token, my opponent will be taking 2400 LP because of the effect of Big Bang Shot. That's what the FAQ entry is saying.
What, in the FAQ ruling that I posted, was so misleading?
If you equip your "Big Bang Shot" to your opponent's "Dark Magician
and "Dark Magician" attacks your "Giant Soldier of Stone",
the opponent of the owner of the "Big Bang Shot" takes the damage
(so your opponent, who attacked with "Dark Magician", takes 900 points of damage.)
It doesn't matter which monster Big Bang Shot is equipped to, it is the opponent of the controller of Big Bang Shot who will take the Breakthrough Damage.

What if? Either read my earlier post or search the forums for the already extensive and exhaustive answer on the subject matter.

first of all, no need to get mad
you said:
what i meant was:
if i equip BBS to MY airknight offcourse the effect would not be
doubled (what would that mean anyway, you'd break the defense twice, do double damage!?)
but if i equip BBS to my OPPONENT'S airknight then we can't talk
about doubling the effect, because BBS would alter it!
so if my opponent attacked me HE would take the damage and
you would not draw a card.
or does the continuous effect of airknight "overpower" the effect
of BBS?
this is what i meant, and because i'm not sure what holds water
i wanted the matter discussed here.
sorry if i wasn't clear enough before, but i haven't found this
particular ruling anywhere, and the bit about "not doubling the effect" is not clear to me (maybe my bad english

Airknight Parshath's effect would be applied; you would receive the Battle Damage.branas said:first of all, no need to get mad

This brings a question to my mind.
Player A has a face-up Archfiend Soldier.
Player B activates Fairy Meteor Crush on Archfiend Soldier.
Player A activates Fairy Meteor Crush on Archfiend Soldier.
Would the former of the two Fairy Meteor Crushes take precedence (Player A would take Battle Damage)?
