Hidden Soldiers and other Chainable Cards

[HorusMaster]

If my opponent activates Giant Trunade, Heavy Storm or targets my set S/T card Hidden Soldiers, can I chain the effect of summoning a level 4 or lower Dark monster or do I lose the timing? Will the same be for cards like Negate Attack? I'm just wondering if the effect is lingering or is there specific timing for these cards.

Well Negate Attack has a particular timing "When your opponent declares an attack", and hidden Soldier does too "When your opponent summons...", so no they would be impossible to chain to Trunade or Heavy.

Neither of these cards create a condition or have a "lingering" effect. They only have activation timing. If the last thing to happen is not their activation timing, they cannot be activated and go hopelessly to the Graveyard. Sorry.

Hope this helps!

the original ost is blank - so i'm kinda guessing here - but i had thought that if the last thing to resolve was a summon and a card like hidden soldier was activated in a subsaquent chain you would still get its effect since other things in the chain have not resolved yet and conditions were correct when it was activated - afterall turn player does have priority to respond to his own summon first with heavy/giant t...so, as long as the last thing to actually resolve/happen was the summon it would be ok.... :huh

They do NOT have Priority to use a Spell Speed 1 Card effect like Giant Trunade or Heavy Storm.

If either of those cards are used, it is because you have passed on your Turn Player priority and your opponent has nothing he wishes to respond with and passes back to you. After that, you no longer have response timing for anything that can be activated to a summon.
