I was just wondering if my opponent could exiled force to destroy the end of anubis as the end of anubis negetes the effects of monsters spells and traps that target and activate in the graveyard?
ygo doc said:If you meant Skill Drain instead of The End of Anubis, then your second conclusion is correct. Skill Drain only negates the effects of face-up monsters on the Field. Exiled Force is no longer on the Field, when its effect resolves. The End of Anubis does not negate Exiled Force because Exiled Force's ignition effect does not activate in the Graveyard.

i,ve got another question on exiled force where does exiled force activate because tributing it self is a cost and thats why it isn't negated by skill drain.
lets see if i've got this right it can resolve in the graveyard and if it's removed from play by a card like macro cosmos.
so where dos it activate
Just a note. It ACTIVATES on the field. The EFFECT resolves on the field.
You dont know how many times I try to go to a place where they just Casual Duel, and get asked this question, based on the Skill Drain Ruling. Now, I can just tell them since they know where to look it up, try looking again.... :duel_noygo doc said:OK, from henceforth, Duelists need not confuse themselves due to erroneous ruling under Skill Drain which used to list Exiled Force as a monster with a Graveyard effect.
UDE Dan has corrected that small oversight and if you check the UDE FAQ directly; Skill Drain no longer erroneously lists Exiled Force.
That's another FAQ correction triggered by challenging conversation on this site.
I apologize if a few of you lose further laughs due to this FAQ change, but for myself, I'm saving a few more hairs from falling out or turning grey, now that it is corrected!
