Ojamuscle vs. Ojama Tokens

[Absird]

I know Ojamuscle destroy's your oppanants Ojama's but does it destroy the tokens?

So token cease to exsist. Now are Ojama Tokens "Ojama's" and Ojamuscle would inflict 900 points of Damage along with giving Ojama King 3000 ATK

Technically, yes, that is what would happen. But the 900 Damage would not be inflicted by "Ojamuscle", but by the Tokens being destroyed.

I'm afraid we're not quite perfect yet. Tokens aren't necessarily destroyed if they leave the field

I always thought that any time a token left the field, it was destroyed by a game mechanic. Are you saying it just ceases to exist?

So token cease to exsist.

I'll point everybody back to the 2nd paragraph in what I posted back on #10. It already explained what happens to Tokens.

So: the tokens are destroyed, by their own, game-mechinal effect. That is what you're saying? Could you explain that a bit more?
Because Ojama Muscle clearly states: "destroy all other Ojama cards on the field". Allright, after all they remove themself from the field by not going to the Grave, that is logic. But your statement doesn't seem logic to me...

Yeah, I almost misread him to. Thats not what he meant though.

Lets just simplify it once and for all, shall we?

Ojamuscle will destroy Ojama Tokens. And Ojama Tokens will inflict damage to your opponent if destroyed by Ojamuscle.

The last point that was trying to be made was that simply removing tokens from the field does not destroy them. So if you used Compulsory Evacuation Device on an Ojama Token, the token would attempt to return to the hand and cease to exist when it left the field. It would not be condsidered destroyed however, because the simple removal of an Ojama Token does not destroy it.

Ojamuscle works just fine becasue it specificaly use the word destroy.

I apologize for any confusion I may have caused with my previous post. I was battling one of the worst migranes I've had in months here at work, so I was literally typing that post with my eyes closed because my monitors were killing me!

BTW...DJ got it right with what I was saying..lol.

Another example of Ojama Tokens being removed from the field without the damage penalty is when they are tributed. While you cannot use them for a Tribute(or Normal) Summon. They can be used either for special summon of Lava Golem (a favorite in my burn deck) or For use with Enemy Controller's second effect, or even Cannon Soldier's effect. Of course there are more. Just citing some examples.
