    Barrel Behind the Door debate

    It seriously depends on what card C. is. Which counter-trap did you have in mind, keeping mind mind that Barrel Behind the Door does not inflict damage and that Card C would not be allowed to chain to card A? My kneejerk reaction is to say that Card C can't be chained to Barrel Behind the...

    Contract with the Abyss Vs Disturbance strategy

    Tributing for a Ritual Summon is NOT a cost. If you have a 1 star monster, you would be able to Tribute it for Relinquished. Keep in mind that for Contract with the Abyss, the number of stars must be exactly equal to the monster you are tributing for.

    Horus Lv6 face-down Vs change of heart

    Going by the rulings of Legendary Fisherman, yes, but probably not in the way you are hoping. If Horus 6 is flipped face-up after being affected by Change of Heart, it will immediately return to the control of the original player as it can no longer be affected by Change of Heart.

    Endurance Payment

    Garth seems to be the biggest question in terms of people wanting to pay into negatives (and also the 3 END cost matched). But no, if you don't have at least as much END as the cost, you may not pay and put the effect on the chain.

    Endurance Payment

    You may not use Garth when you are at less than or equal to 2 END. :) You have to be able to pay any costs to put a payment power effect on the chain. If such a payment would put you below 0, you are not considered able to pay.

    newbie question???

    Just to clarify something on Evasion: The character is not exempt from the regular recovery during wrap-up. They actually recover BEFORE the wrap-up and if stunned after that, they still must be recovered normally if you wish to keep them. A (semi-) common tactic with Will o' the Wisp, for...

    Evasion

    What evasion's purpose is is to stun the character and have a guaranteed recovery of it. If used while defending, the attacker will reready as the defender is no longer present at attack resolution. It can 'dodge' a plot twist only if the plot twist can't target a stunned character. As for...

    necro-fears the mask

    No. Dark Necrofear is not a Spell Card when it triggers from the Graveyard.

    Ultimate Baseball Kid and Scapegoat

    Well, as stated in the ruling, it wouldn't have been possible in the first place. The Horus would just stay on the field, not being able to use its 'send to Graveyard' effect.

    Ceasefire

    At least one of two conditions must be met to activate Ceasefire: There must either be a face-down monster or a face-up Effect monster. (or both)

    brain jacker question

    Whoops, you're absolutely right. Was thinking faster than typing, I think. Was trying to say that it is treated as an Equip Spell Card still equipped to a monster, even though it is face-down.

    brain jacker question

    The monsters affected by Thousand-Eyes Restrict/Relinquished are Equip Spell Cards equipped to TER/Relinquished. That the monster is face-down is irrelevant. It is still treated as a face-up Equip Spell Card (and can be affected/destroyed by those effects that target Spell Cards). This is due to...

    Optional trigger effect Vs. Multi-trigger effect

    Most Multi-Trigger monsters have conditions to activate their effects, usually stated as part of the effect. For example, Lily states only while she is in battle (or similar). Dark Paladin can only negate Spell Cards (so you can't just discard. You can only use his effect when your opponent...

    Ultimate Baseball Kid and Scapegoat

    Two things are checked to see if a card can fulfill the cost for Ultimate Baseball Kid. First: Is it a FIRE monster? While it is on the field, it is indeed a FIRE monster, so is eligible. Second: Can this card be sent to the Graveyard? Tokens cannot be sent to the Graveyard because they...

    Ultimate Baseball Kid and Scapegoat

    Found another one. A monster card this time. Horus Level 4 (which means this will apply to all other levelling up) "If Banisher of the Light" is in play, you cannot send "Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV 4" to the Graveyard, so you cannot activate its effect.

    Ultimate Baseball Kid and Scapegoat

    Basically, 'send to the graveyard' as part of an effect can translate as 'Get this card off the field'. 'Send to the Graveyard' as a cost to pay for an effect means 'No, really, send this card to the Graveyard.'

    Ultimate Offering vs. Trap Hole

    Provided you remain within the limitation of using Ultimate Offering during your own Main Phases or your opponent's Battle Phase, yes.

    This is (at least was and should still be) in the basic rulebook.

    Ultimate Baseball Kid and Scapegoat

    For further clarification on this, look at the ruling for Emergency Provisions. Specifically: While "Banisher of the Light" is face-up on the field, you cannot activate "Emergency Provisions" since it is impossible to send cards to the Graveyard.
