Monster Reborn, Serial Spell, and Bottomless Trap Hole

Calculative Duelist
Say I activate Monster Reborn and use Serial Spell, the first monster I decide to be summoned first is Blue-Eyes White Dragon, the second monster to hit the field would be Dark Magician. Does Bottomless Trap Hole get rid of Dark Magician only or both?

I would have to say the DM since Bottomless would be in response to monsters hitting the field. Since DM technically hits the field first, it would actually depend on when BTH was activated.

Bottomless Trah Hole will destroy and remove only Dark Magician, accoding to the new ruling.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon's summon happens during the resolution of the chain Monster Reborn-Serial Spell, it's impossible to activate Bottomless Trap Hole against him, because no effect can be activated during a chain. Then it can be activated only after the Dark Magician's summon. Now, even if Bottomless Trap Hole doesn't target a monster, it can only be activated after a "summoning window" and will work only against the monsters that are summoned in that window, and so the only "summoning window" it would respond can be the Dark Magician's summon.

You don't decide the order in which you summon monsters.

1) When you activate Monster Reborn, you declare a target then. So if Blue-Eyes White Dragon is the first monster you pick, this is it.
2) Your opponent has the chance to chain to Serial Spell if s/he does you will not be able to activate Serial Spell.
3) You activate Serial Spell, discard your entire hand, then select its target: Dark Magician.

Now resolve in reverse order,
Serial Spell summons Dark Magician.
Monster Reborn summons Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

The last thing to happen is the summon of Blue-Eyes White Dragon, so Bottomless Trap Hole can be activated in response to her summon, but cannot be activated in response Dark Magician.

So, Blue-Eyes White Dragon will be removed from play when Bottomless Trap Hole resolves.

Ihih, just a little problem with the card auto-linking! :D

But even DaGuyWitBluGlasses was correct, Tiso must remember that the target of both played spell cards has to be declared at activation.
