Q: If I activate the effect of Number F0: Utopic Future – Future Slash that allows it to attack twice during each Battle Phase this turn, what happens if my opponent activates Skill Drain when Number F0: Utopic Future – Future Slash declares its second attack during the Battle Phase?
A: In this scenario, although the effects of Number F0: Utopic Future – Future Slash are negated by Skill Drain, the effect that allows it to attack twice has already resolved, and the second attack continues normally. In this case, the effect of Skill Drain negates the effect of Number F0: Utopic Future – Future Slash that increases its ATK by 500 for each “Number” Xyz Monster in your Graveyard, as well as the effect that prevents Number F0: Utopic Future – Future Slash from being destroyed by battle.

Q: During my Main Phase 1, when my Petiranodon is destroyed by a card effect, I activate its effect and Special Summon a Super Conductor Tyranno from my Deck. Then my opponent activates Book of Moon and changes Super Conductor Tyranno to face-down Defense Position. In this situation, if I activate Book of Taiyou and change Super Conductor Tyranno to face-up Attack Position, can it attack during the Battle Phase this turn?
A: When a monster that was Special Summoned from the Deck by the effect of Petiranodon is changed to face-down Defense Position, the part of the effect that prevents that monster from attacking this turn no longer applies. Therefore, if that monster becomes face-up again as in this scenario, it can attack during the Battle Phase that turn.

Also, if there are no face-up monsters on your opponent’s field when the effect of Ultimate Conductor Tyranno resolves, the effect still destroys 1 monster on your field or in your hand, but the part of the effect that changes all face-up monsters on your opponent’s field to face-down Defense Position is not applied.

The opponent cannot activate the effect of your Lost World.

A: The effect of Lost World that Special Summons a Jurraegg Token can only be activated when a Dinosaur-Type monster is Normal or Special Summon face-up.

Q: I activated Harpie’s Feather Storm during this turn, and its effect that negates any monster effect activated by my opponent is applying. In this situation, if my opponent uses Forbidden Lance to make their Spiritual Beast Cannahawk unaffected by Spell/Trap effects, and then activates its effect that banishes a “Ritual Beast” card from the Deck, will that effect be negated by Harpie’s Feather Storm?
A: As in this scenario, when a monster on your opponent’s field activates its effect, the effect of Harpie’s Feather Storm is treated as an effect that is applied to that monster. Therefore, the effect of your opponent’s Spiritual Beast Cannahawk, which is unaffected by Spell/Trap effects, is not negated and resolves normally.

Therefore, the effect of Cardcar D is negated by Harpie’s Feather Storm.
