Inflict damage to your opponent's Life Points equal to the total number of cards on your opponent's side of the field and in your opponent's hand x 200 points.
Rulings
If you activate "Secret Barrel" and your opponent activates something as a chain, the chained card is included in the number (so if your opponent's only card on the field or in his hand is "Mystical Space Typhoon", and he chains "Mystical Space Typhoon" to "Secret Barrel", he still takes 200 damage).
A friend of mine and myself have a discussion about this card.
Does it count at resolution or at the time of activation?
My friend says at the activation, because of the ruling I quoted.
I disagree with that, because the ruling only states that cards chained to Secret Barrel still count, simply because they're still on the field. I think that it counts at the resolution, because the other cards that count (Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End, Good Goblin Housekeeping, etc.), count them at the resolution.
Who's right?
