Incidentally, this question was also addressed recently on UDE's Judge Certification Program forum: http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/OP/COMMUNITY/forums/thread/737801.aspx

Densetu's answer is correct. Also, while we're on the subject, Force of the Breaker hasn't been released in English yet, so the English name of the card you're talking about certainly is not "Ultimate Last Stand"; that's just the current fanlation that Toywiz is using. Incidentally, whoever...

Hey Simon, ever answer the same question by the same person across four different forums? It's happened to me once before, and it was surreal. I think by the fourth forum, there was a noticeable amount of irritation in what I posted. :D

No one else chimed in, so I should point this out: I'm assuming you mean after using "Soul Exchange", since normally you can't Tribute your opponent's monsters. Of course, I should also point out that you only need a Spellcaster-Type monster on your field to activate "Magical Dimension"...

As Kevin would say, we no longer need "training wheel" text like that anymore. Shuffling is always done after a card effect allows you to see the contents of your Deck (unless specifically stated otherwise). The related rule is quite easy to find: Source - Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG Policy Document...

Incidentally, Upper Deck Entertainment's Official Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG website has a section that explains the rules on Battle Position changes quite well: http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/advancedgameplay/default.aspx

So, there are some exceptions. =P Besides, "A Deal with Dark Ruler" is from the same set as the one in which the Archfiends originally appeared (not counting older cards that were retroactively named Archfiends). Also, since it doesn't stay on the field after it resolves, the fact that it...

This does sound slightly inane. Who is this "they" in this quote? Certainly not UDE or Konami, since they would never be this specific or strict regarding what is considered the point of activation of a card. As far as I'm concerned, flipping "Call of the Haunted" face-up and then...

I should add that all future cards that are supposed to be Archfiends will be called Archfiends when they are released in English. That said, the list of Archfiends will never need updating again, because they have since all been properly named (and will continue to be).

I know Digital Jedi made it exceedingly clear that what you suggested is not the case, but I figured I would back him up: UDE/Konami absolutely has not released any rulings that would require "Exiled Force" to remain on the field for a turn before you can activate its Ignition Effect. I...

"Forced Requisition" can miss the timing for its initial activation (flipping it from face-down to face-up), but that's all. Once active, it will trigger for any and all discards, regardless of whether it was a discard via cost or effect. Some common methods of initially activating "Forced...

I'm sure he doesn't need the back-up, but densetsu_x is correct. "Missing the timing" only applies to optional Trigger Effects. "Dark World" monsters have mandatory Trigger Effects, which means you cannot miss the timing with them, ever. "Dark World" monster effects trigger as long as you...

I would sooo lock this thread, if I still had moderating powers here. :D The question's been answered, so there's really no need to drag this on any longer. Also, Jason_C was being rude? Hardly. Stern? Yes. Harsh? Perhaps. But certainly not rude. It looked, to me anyway, like he was...

Hmm...revival of a 13-month old thread? Normally, I'd just lock this, but instead I'll answer your question before locking. Yes, roadhouse007, what you stated is correct. "United We Stand" checks the number of monsters on Player A's side of the field, because Player A still controls "United...

Heh. No, there is not a single Level 4 or higher judge at this point in time. So, if you're only accepting an answer from someone Level 4 or higher, you're going to have to wait until the Level 4 Judge Test actually, you know...exists. I'm a Level 2 Judge, just like chaosruler, and Dlanaan is...
