"Divine Wrath" vs. "Sinister Serpent"

Well, here's the offiial ruling and it matches the JERP ruling (so please, no "I told you so's").

After you negate the effect of "Sinister Serpent" with "Divine Wrath", your opponent can activate the effect of "Sinister Serpent" again to return it to his hand, even during the same Standby Phase.

Ironic though that given the ruling vs. "Helpoemer" says that "Helpoemer"'s effect is negated and doesn't re-activate.

I'm actually impressed with this considering they seemed to cover most scenarios that could come up. Given how confusing this card is, it's a great change to see some concrete answers.

I like how they cleared up the whole 'Monsters already in the Graveyard cannot be destroyed again' issue. As I know it was a subject of some debate on previous threads.

Why are there two of the same thread?

Why are there two of the same thread?

There were 2 different ruling changes, each thread highlighted one of them. The ruling i quoted in the other thread was not the ruling quoted here.

The first tread was an old thread that spurs some debate. Since there are actually several threads that discuss about "Divine Wrath", this tread simply announces that a new rule was posted. This is better for easy viewing.
