trying to sort out if heavy mech support platform can be equipped to spell canceller...successfully & with effect...
it says "...equip to a face up machine...as an equip spell card or..."

basically - is it just treated like, but stays a monster or does it actually become an equip spell???

guess i'll have to stick to rare metamorph & blast with chain...sigh


thanks !!

I may be wrong but won't Blast with a Chain be negated by Spell Canceller's effect? I thought that Equip cards have their effect negated even though the card can still be equipped>
 
Why would "Spell Canceller" negate a Trap card? Even though it's an equip card, it's still an equip Trap Card, so "Spell Canceller" would have no power of it.

Wouldn't Rare Metalmorph targetting Spell Canceller be a useless thing? Rare Metalmorph negates the first Spell Card that targets Spell Canceller, but Spell Canceller forbids all Spell Cards from being activated.

Sure, there'd still be the +500 ATK, but there are other better cards for that.
 
spell canceller is but two of 21........but two of three that need the boost....3rd being bes tetran... love that reaper / breaker thing...heavy mech is nice with jinzo & bes tet - but not sp can....and i'm big on utility...cyber dragon + 500 and a bit of protection can be a bear....

It's a trap card when activated but becomes an Equip card after activation. What about Heavy Mech? It's a monster card, so what effect would Spell Canceller have on it? But according to the rulings, Heavy Mech can be attached as an Equip card to Spell Canceller but because Spell Canceller negates S/M cards, it negates the effect of Heavy Mech. So, wouldn't the same be held for Blast with a Chain? Aren't ALL Equip cards considered Spell cards by their mechanism?
 
No.
When monsters become Equip Cards through an effect they become Equip Spell Cards as well. This is in the FAQ.
Equip Card =/= Equip Spell Card
All Equip Spell Cards are Equip Cards but not all Equip Cards are Spell cards, ok?

Equip Cards
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]An "Equip Card" is any card that is equipped to a face-up monster on the field. Spell Cards with the Equip Icon are the most common type of Equip Card, and are officially called Equip Spell Cards. They are treated as both Spell Cards (They would be destroyed by the effect of "Heavy Storm") and Equip Cards (for purposes such as "Gearfried the Swordmaster".) Other cards may become Equip Cards though card effects, like with "Sword Hunter" or Union Monsters. Whenever a Monster Card becomes an Equip Card, it is treated as an Equip Spell Card, and is no longer a Monster Card. So a "Dark Magician" equipped to your "Sword Hunter" as an Equip Card could be destroyed by "Heavy Storm" but not "Tribute to the Doomed".

Some Trap Cards, like "Blast with Chain", can also become Equip Cards. These cards are considered Equip Cards but are NOT Equip Spell Cards. This means that it is a Trap Card (and could be destroyed by "Remove Trap") and an Equip Card (for purposes such as "Gearfried the Swordmaster".) It is not a Spell Card, and could not be destroyed by "De-Spell".
So Traps that become Equip Cards are still Traps.
