Burning Land vs. Field Barrier

[HorusMaster]

If I activate Burning Land while my opponent has a Field Spell card on the field with Field Barrier, would the activation create a continous loop as Burning Land would keep checking the field?

And if so, what card is destroyed because of the loop?

There is no loop. Burning Land would attempt to destroy the field spell, Field Barrier would keep preventing that.

The 500 Damage though would be inflicted to the player during his/her standby phase.

Burning Land doesnt keep trying to destroy a Field Spell Card. It attempts to destroy it once, and that's it. So if it doesnt work, it doesnt look for the next one to destroy on a later turn or even on that same turn. The only thing Continuously active is the 500 life point burn effect.

The destroying of Field Spell Cards is something Burning Land does at the card's resolution, right? Therefore, I assume, you can't activate it if Field Barrier is active, since you cannot destroy Field Spell Cards.

If you already have an active Burning Land before activating Field Barrier, the only thing Burning Land is doing is inflicting the damage each Standby Phase, so there's zero clash between it and Field Barrier.

You can activate Burning Land. Field Barrier will not stop that. It just prevents the field spell from being destroyed.

You can activate Burning Land. Field Barrier will not stop that. It just prevents the field spell from being destroyed.

So basically, Burning Land's first effect resolves without effect and the second effect remains continous.
