See Jason_C's post above. He is correct.Occasus_Tenshi said:Hmmm triky one... Well, Newdorias effect activated after damage calculation, so I can't see why you can't use strikes effect to save him...
EDIT: Wow, 2 butt in points in 1 go Oo lol
When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard as a result of battle, destroy 1 monster on the field.
I am right. Damage Step is still going on. Remember that there are only 4 steps in the Battle Phase. Start Step and end Step do not involve battle. Therefore, all battle-related events that DON'T occur before Damage Calculation must occur after it BUT still in the Damage Step. If that made sense. Which I doubt it did, considering that I'm typing faster than I'm thinking.Hmmm on second thought Jason might be right
