Hi,
yesterday i played against a Guardian-Deck and so this question came up:
I know you can´t specialsummon a monster like BLS if was not korrect summoned before or a Nomi-monster, this is in the card registry. But can you specialsummon a monster with Tryce´s effect that isnt in the Graveyard anymore (for example it have been removed from play out of the graveyard or was shuffled to the deck or something like this)?
thx for reply

Yes you can, even when the tributed monster is RemovedFromPlay, shuffled into the deck, in the graveyard, etc.

I checked on the ruling for this card and the text, it doesn't state any restrictions from where the tributed monster can be special summoned from.

You should check in tomorrow for a better answer, I may be wrong. Because I'm thinking twice that the effect only refers to Special Summon the tributed monster from the graveyard, and no where else, even though the text doesn't state that.

Well the ARRJ has:
Guardian Tryce
If the monster Tributed to Tribute Summon "Guardian Tryce" is not in the Graveyard when "Guardian Tryce" is destroyed, that monster will not be
Special Summoned.

Since UDE hasn't supplied anything official I'd go with that.

Guardian Tryce was incorrectly translated. The original Japanese card text clearly has the word "graveyard" in it.

The AARJ rulings are from the Netreps, who are official representatives of UDE, and Kevin Tewart, who is basically in charge of rulings distribution in America.

I would view this the way the rulings on "Polymerization" / "De-Fusion" works. If you use "De-Fusion" on a Fusion monster you can only special summon the original monsters that were used for the fusion. If one of them were removed or reborn, you wouldn't be able to special summon any, even if another version of the monster is in the graveyard. So with Tryce, if the exact monster isn't in the graveyard, you don't get to reborn anything.

In the past I used to pull a little combo off with Guardian Tryce, at it was legal. I don’t know if it is still legal or not, so I was hoping to get your input, since you all are so knowledgeable.

If you use a card to tribute your opponents monster (via creature swap, brain control, snatch steal, or soul exchange) in order to tribute set Tryce, when tryce is destroyed, is the monster summoned to your side of the field still? (the one that Tryce special summons)

In otherwords, I use creature swap to take my opponent's snipe hunter. Then I tribute set Tryce. When Tryce is destroyed later, if Snipe Hunter is still in the opponent's gy, can I still sp. summon it?
