Smashing Ground

If my opponent has a Horus The Black Flame Dragon LV 6 and a Raging Flame Sprite on the field and I activate Smashing Ground, would the Flame Sprite be destroyed b/c Horus is not affected by spell cards?

Thanks

Yes, Raging Flame Spirit will be destroyed by Smashing Ground as Smashing Ground needs a legal monster to destroy. This doesn't mean it targets.

wrong

If you control â??Blue-Eyes White Dragonâ? and â??Silent Swordsman LV5â?Â, and your opponent activates â??Fissureâ?Â, the monster with the lowest ATK is â??Silent Swordsman LV5â?Â, but it is unaffected by Spell Cards, so the effect of â??Fissureâ? Disappears.

if it is right was you said the blue eyes white dragon will be destroyed here.
but the effect dissappear and so the effekt dissappears here to!

Sorry Tkwiget but Chaos-Hunter Hunter is right:
Example 1: A player has "Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV6" and "Blue-Eyes White
Dragon" on the field and the opponent activates "Fissure". The effect of "Fissure"
looks for the lowest ATK monster, and attempts to destroy "Horus the Black Flame
Dragon LV6", but that monster is unaffected by Spell Cards and isn't destroyed,
and the effect of "Fissure" just Disappears. Fissure does not try to "skip" "Horus
the Black Flame Dragon LV6" and try to destroy "Blue-Eyes" instead.

Neither Fissure nor Smashing Ground target, so in the case of Horus, wouldn't the activated spell card look for the next legal monster other than Horus?

No. Both cards look for a qualifying monster. Once found, it will attempt to destroy that monster. If the monster is unaffected by spell cards (or opponent's spell cards), then that monster will not be destroyed, and the effect will 'Disappear'. Neither "Fissure", nor "Smashing Ground" will look for another valid monster.

'keep in mind that this wasn't clarified until recent months. A pervading thought was that a non-tageting Spell Card would seek out whatever it could effect and ignore the illegal stuff until this Judges List message came out.

Off topic, I would just like to say I hate this card so much, it's always taken games away from me and stopping it is near on impossible. There are plenty of effects that target, but not being able to target means you need something like Magic Drain or Magic Jammer to stop it. Everything else that has been mentioned is correct.
