1)Soul Exchange may only be used to summon level 7 or higher monsters (two or more tribute monsters), yes or no?
2)Can Soul Exchange be used to target the third monster when summoning Moisture Creature in order to get its spell/trap destruction effect?
3)If the monster you pick on your opponets side of the field is removed from the field by CED or destroyed by RoD what happends to your monster and is battle phase still skiped?

Thanks

The only way you can do this is if you control Exiled Force yourself.

Bottom Line, if both of you control Exiled Force, you can use Soul Exchange and activate your own Exiled Force and tribute the opponent's instead.

You DO NOT gain control of the opponent's monster with Soul Exchange.

Actually, you can't do that either. From the Judge's List:
"[font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]'Soul Exchange' cannot be used in this way.
Just like you cannot use it Tribute an opponent's monster instead of
your "Exiled Force."

*getting sad again

Awww come on.... I just went to look up Soul Exchange in the FAQ, and its not there... just the errata on the card.... Now i dont know what to think., but Nova, your response does not make me cheerful... but I does make Soul Exchange a good card to Side deck

And i'm pretty sure that in the case of Exiled's effect, it must be another Exiled Force on the opponent's side of the Field, in oder to pay the cost.

There was a thread concerning Paladin of White Dragon, and it stated it had to be another PoWD on the opponent's side. Not just any monster.

It has to be another Exiled... i explained this in my post above.

Exiled's effect is specific, it HAS to be Exiled that is tributed.

Well, since Exiled usually doesnt stay on the field for more than a turn.... that will be a hard one to get off... but still a good combo... get rid of 2 monsters with 1 exiled (of your own anyway)... well... 3 monsters i guess.. cuz you would tribute their exiled instead of yours... destroy their Jinzo, then use your exiled to destroy whatever they have left... Now thats cool.... Difficult but cool..

I think Dim.Warrior was referring to using them together??? in that case you couldnt cuz they are the same spell speed right?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't 'Soul Exchange' create a "state" in which you've selected the opponent's monster to use, but you don't have to IMMEDIATELY use it?

So the 'Soul Exchange', 'Share the Pain' combo will work perfectly.

You simply activate 'Soul Exchange', declare the opponent's monster, then activate 'Share the Pain' and use the opponent's monster as the tribute, thereby getting rid of two monsters for the price of one!

You can't chain them together. You can however, use Soul Exchange and later on Tribute the opponent's monster instead of your own for Share the Pain.

Soul Exchange is a replacement effect (continuous) and creates a continuous "state" that will allow you to "cut-in" and replace a Tribute of one of your monsters for an opponent's during an activation or resolution.

In the end that means 2 Tributed monsters on the opponent's side with Share the Pain.

How can the card's effect linger like that.... I thought that once the effect resolved it was over...... Its not a continuous spell

There are lots of examples, Waboku, Graverobber, Deck Devastation Virus... all examples of lingering effects or conditions.

Last Will is very similar in the "state" aspect of Soul Exchange, the main difference being that it is a Trigger, so it creates a Chain Link. Soul Exchange can cut-in and replace a Tribute, and is more like a continuous condition of sorts.

Waldo is that you? How's going man?

Honestly this is not correct. We know that if Imperial Order negates Soul Exchange you still skip your Battle Phase.

The skipping of the Battle Phase is a cost to activate Soul Exchange. The only way that you would not skip it would be if the activation is negated (ie. Magic Jammer). It doesn't matter whether you actually Tribute a monster or not.

I don't know what you're talking about.

This isn't Waldo.

If you had a Blue Eyes White Dragon and 2 Soul Exchanges in your hand and your opponent had 2 monsters on his side of the field, could you play both Soul Exchanges to summon the Blue Eyes?

Why not? as long as the selected monsters are still on the field when you want to tribute them for your blue eyes. (It might get suspicious if you play two Soul Exchange and they may want to chain to the second :D)

Nice combo...And individually the cards are powerful monster disposal cards as well. That's why they've both always been in my deck (but I never thought about that combo).

But you got me thinking... How long does the "state" last (of Soul Exchange)? It says you have to skip your battle phase for this turn, but it doesn't say anything about doing the tribute this turn. Although, your opponent will probably dispose of the monster if you don't use it right away.

Also, the text of the card says "When you offer your monster as a tribute, offer the selected monster in place of 1 of your monsters" so I was under the impression that you had to have one of your own monsters on the field when you do the tribute (though you don't tribute your monster). But now I'm not so sure. What do you all think?
