Here's an issue that came up today that we had trouble with. Player B has a face up Bazoo, a face down monster, and a face down spell/trap. Player A special summons Cyber Dragon, then plays Enemy Controller, selecting its second effect to tribute Cyber Dragon and take control of Bazoo. Player B...

Do the Gadgets get their effect if they are special summoned by Giant Rat, or do they miss their timing? I've seen conflicting answers on this one.

I can't seem to find any rulings/posts on this, so I thought I'd ask. The ruling for Skill Drain that allows Exiled Force's effect to work when Skill Drain is on the field says that Exiled Force's effect activates in the graveyard. If that's the case, wouldn't Exiled Force's effect be negated by...

Here's the scenario. I'm playing a Macrocosmos deck. I have D.D. Survivor in face up attack, Macrocosmos is face up in my S/T zone, and I have one face down S/T (Sakuretsu Armor). On my opponent's turn, he plays Snatch Steal to take control of my D.D. Survivor and declares an attack. I respond...

What is the "original attack" of a monster like Gren Maju Da Eiza that has "?" ATK? I'm trying to determine whether he is a reasonable target for Spiritual Fire Art "“ Kurenai, or whether his attack would be considered 0 for this purpose.

Does Tsukuyomi reset the once-per-turn counter on the effects for monsters like Blowback Dragon and Chaos Sorcerer? That is, can you use the effect, flip face down with Tsukuyomi/Book of Moon, flip face up manually, then reuse the effect?

What would happen in this scenario? Player B's field is empty Player A attacks with Mefist the Infernal General, which is equipped with Blast with Chain Player B has one card in hand, Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World, which is discarded with Mefist's effect Goldd comes to the field, and...

Would Blockman work while Skill Drain is on the field? The card's language is basically the same as Exiled Force's, and the ruling there is that the effect activates in the graveyard and can therefore be used while Skill Drain is present. (Which I've never understood, since it shouldn't be able...

Disappear and Chaos Sorcerer If I go to remove a light and a dark to summon Chaos Sorcerer, can my opponent activate Disappear to remove one of them from play and prevent Chaos Sorcerer from being special summoned? I'm pretty sure that the answer is no, based on the Bazoo/Disappear ruling, but...

Obviously Elemental Hero Wildheart is unaffected if Deck Devastation Virus goes off while it is on the field, but what if it is in the hand at the time, or if it is drawn on the following turn? Does its effect protect it in those cases?

Just saw this posted on pojo. It sounds right, but I want to be sure: This sounds like he's right, but I wasn't sure if there was something preventing Treeborn Frog from being Special Summoned twice in a single Standby Phase. Judges?

My son and I went to a regional tournament in Denver last weekend, and I'd like to hear opinions on what I should do about a situation that occurred in one of my son's matches. My son was playing a Strike Ninja deck with two Returns in it. In this match, his opponent had cleared his monsters...

1. I tribute two of my opponent's monsters for Lava Golem. Spiritual Fire Art was set on my previous turn. Can I use Soul Exchange to tribute Lava Golem for Spiritual Fire Art's effect? 2. (Ignore this one if the answer to #1 is No.) Similarly, if I use Soul Exchange to tribute my opponent's...

I know there were some posts about this before D. D. Survivor was released, but I don't see anything about it since. If D. D. Survivor is special summoned to the field by Return from the Different Dimension, then sent back out of play during the end phase, will it immediately return to the field?

Am I understanding this response correctly? As I read it, if I use Creature Swap to send my face down Morphing Jar over to my opponent's side of the field, then hit it with the monster I received from my opponent, any Sillva or Goldd monsters that are discarded will receive their secondary...

I just want to make sure this works as I think it does: Opponent has one or more Scapegoat tokens in face up defense position. I have D.D. Assailant in attack position. I declare an attack on a token and ask for a response (assuming that my opponent has one or more cards set in his spell/trap...

I was at a local tournament today, and someone was trying to play the common Royal Decree from the Warrior Structure Deck. He was told that he couldn't play it yet. Is that official? I thought that all cards were legal now as soon as they were released.

If Final Attack Orders is on the field and I hit my opponent's face down Legendary Jujitsu Master, is my monster still bounced, even though LJM is no longer in defense at the damage step?

I've never been clear on this. If I do the Manticore-Card of Safe Return combo to draw as many cards as I want in my end phase, do I have to discard to get down to 6 cards in hand, or can I keep the cards I draw until my next turn?

I haven't put this deck together yet, but I've been toying with designs for it for a couple of weeks now. It's kind of a hyrid of a Hino-Kagu-Tsuchi deck and a Soul Control deck. Just looking at it and comparing it to my current Soul Control deck, I think it should work pretty well, but I'd be...
