(It can also be activated during the Damage Step. If this card was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, this effect activates in the Graveyard, and if this card was destroyed and banished, this effect activates while this card is banished.)

Q: While the effect of Dinorphia Stealthbegia is applying, which costs do I no longer need to pay to activate Trap effects?
A: You no longer need to pay Life Points to activate Trap Cards. You still need to pay Life Points to activate Trap effects. For example, if the effect of Dinorphia Stealthbegia is applying, you do not need to pay 1000 Life Points to activate Skill Drain. (You can activate Skill Drain even if your Life Points are less than 1000.) On the other hand, you still need to pay 1000 Life Points to activate the effect of Unending Nightmare. (This is the case whether you activate the effect of Unending Nightmare as part of the same Chain Link as the card’s activation, or if you activate the effect of Unending Nightmare while it is already face-up in the Spell & Trap Zone.)

Q: While the effect of Dinorphia Stealthbegia is applying, can I activate Wall of Revealing Light?
A: In this case, you cannot pay Life Points to activate a Trap Card, so you cannot activate Wall of Revealing Light since its effect depends on the amount of Life Points you paid.

Q: I control a Dinorphia Stealthbegia, while my opponent controls a Masquerade the Blazing Dragon. If my Life Points are 2600 and I activate Dinorphia Brute, what Life Points do I have to pay?
A: Firstly, when activating an effect, the effect of Masquerade the Blazing Dragon is applied and you must pay 600 Life Points. (This is not the activation cost of the effect.) After that, you pay the original cost of the card itself. If you activate Dinorphia Brute while your Life Points are 2600, you pay 600 Life Points for the effect of Masquerade the Blazing Dragon first, so your Life Points become 2000. Since your Life Points are 2000 or less, the original cost of paying half your Life Points is no longer needed due to the effect of Dinorphia Stealthbegia.

BACH-JP040 Guardian Chimera

The text that states this card must first be Special Summoned by Fusion Summon using materials from your hand and field is not an effect. (You can Fusion Summon this card using 1 monster from your hand and 2 monsters from your field, or 2 monsters from your hand and 1 monster from your field as Fusion Materials.)
The effect that draws cards and destroys your opponent’s cards is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (You choose which of your opponent’s cards to destroy when resolving the effect.)
This effect cannot be activated if the number of cards in your Deck is less than the number of Fusion Materials you used from your hand. Also, it cannot be activated if the number of cards your opponent controls is less than the number of Fusion Materials you used from the field.
Drawing cards and destroying cards occur simultaneously.
The effect that prevents this card from being targeted by your opponent’s card effects is a Continuous Effect.

Q: When resolving the effect of Guardian Chimera, what happens if the number of cards my opponent controls is less than the number of cards I need to destroy (in other words, the number of Fusion Materials that were used from the field)?
A: Even in this case, you will draw cards equal to the number of Fusion Materials that were used from your hand, but since your opponent does not control the required number of cards that you need to destroy, you do not destroy any cards.

BACH-JP041 Swordsoul Catastrophe – Qixing Longyuan

The effect that draws a card is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.
The effect that banishes an opponent’s monster and inflicts 1200 damage to your opponent is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (It cannot be activated during the Damage Step.)
Banishing the opponent’s monster and inflicting 1200 damage to your opponent occur simultaneously.
The effect that banishes an opponent’s Spell/Trap and inflicts 1200 damage to your opponent is a Quick Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (When your opponent activates a Spell/Trap effect, this effect can be chained directly to that effect. It cannot be activated during the Damage Step.)
Banishing the opponent’s Spell/Trap and inflicting 1200 damage to your opponent occur simultaneously.

Q: If multiple monsters are Special Summoned in the same Chain, or if monsters are Special Summoned multiple times while resolving one effect, how do I pick which monsters to banish with the effect of Swordsoul Catastrophe – Qixing Longyuan?
A: When resolving the effect of Swordsoul Catastrophe – Qixing Longyuan, select and banish any 1 of the Special Summoned monsters. (You do not select a monster at the time of activation, nor do you need to tell your opponent which Special Summon the effect is responding to when activating it.)

BACH-JP042 Irohamomiji

The effect that grants this card its Attribute-changing effect is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (It can also be activated during the Damage Step.)
After this effect resolves, this card will have its gained “●” effect as long as it is face-up in the Monster Zone.
The gained “●” effect is a Continuous Effect.
The effect that makes your opponent send cards to the Graveyard is an Ignition Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.
When resolving this effect, your opponent chooses 1 card in the zones in front of, behind, or on either side of the targeted monster and sends it to the Graveyard. (They can send either player’s card to the Graveyard, as long as it exists in one of the aforementioned zones.)
When resolving this effect, your opponent chooses 1 card and has to send it to the Graveyard. (The card is not treated as being sent to the Graveyard by a card effect.)

Q: If the effects of Irohamomiji are negated, what happens to the effect it gained when it was Special Summoned?
A: If the effects of Irohamomiji are negated when its effect is resolving, the effect is not applied, so it does not gain its “●” effect. If the effects of Irohamomiji are negated after its effect has already resolved (after gaining its “●” effect), it will still have its gained effect, but the effect is not applied. If the effects of Irohamomiji stop being negated afterward, the “●” effect is applied again.

BACH-JP043 Dark Dimension Soldier

The effect that Special Summons 1 of your banished DARK monsters is an Ignition Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (This effect targets 1 of your DARK monsters that is banished face-up.
This effect cannot be activated if you have no banished monsters to target, which means you cannot banish a card from your hand as cost. However, if you already have a banished DARK monster that you can target, you can activate the effect by banishing a card from your hand as the cost, and if that card is a DARK monster, you can target that same monster.
The effect that inflicts damage to your opponent is a Trigger Effect that activates in the Monster Zone. (This is a mandatory effect. It must be activated even if there are no Set cards on the field.)

BACH-JP044 D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina

This card’s Pendulum Effect starts a Chain and can be activated in the Pendulum Zone.
This effect targets 1 face-up Pendulum Monster in your Monster Zone, or 1 Pendulum Monster in your Graveyard.
Special Summoning the other card in your Pendulum Zone and placing the targeted monster in your Pendulum Zone occur simultaneously.
The text that states this card can also be Xyz Summoned using a “D/D/D” monster as Xyz Material is not an effect. (Xyz Summoning this card this way does not start a Chain. Special Summoning this card this way is treated as properly Special Summoning this card.)
The effect that states you can only have 1 face-up D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina in your Monster Zone is not classified as either an Ignition, Trigger, Quick, or Continuous Effect.
Due to this effect, you cannot Xyz Summon another copy of this card using this card as the Xyz Material. However, you can still Special Summon another copy of this card while this card is in your Pendulum Zone.
The effect that attaches an opponent’s monster to this card as an Xyz Material is a Quick Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (It cannot be activated during the Damage Step. When your opponent activates a Monster Card effect on their field, this effect can be chained directly to that effect.)
This effect can be chained to the activation of a Pendulum Monster to the Pendulum Zone, the Pendulum Effect of a card in the Pendulum Zone, as well as the effect of a Monster Card treated as an Equip Card in the Spell & Trap Zone. (These are all the activation of a Monster Card effect.)
Detaching 2 Xyz Materials from this card or destroying a “Dark Contract” card you control and attaching the opponent’s monster to this card as an Xyz Material occur simultaneously.
The effect that places this card in your Pendulum Zone is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (You can only activate this effect if you have an available Pendulum Zone.)

Q: A Performapal Odd-Eyes Light Phoenix in my opponent’s Monster Zone activates its effect by Tributing itself. Can I chain the effect of D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina that attaches the opponent’s monster to it as Xyz Material?
A: No, you cannot.

Q: When Statue of Anguish Pattern treated as a monster activates its monster effect, can I chain the effect of D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina?
A: No, you cannot. Statue of Anguish Pattern is Special Summoned as a monster and activates a monster effect, but its original card type is still Trap Card, not Monster Card. Therefore, even though a monster effect has been activated, a Monster Card did not activate an effect.

Q: If the monster effect of D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina is activated, what happens if either D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina itself or the opponent’s monster that activated its effect are no longer on the field when the effect resolves?
A: When resolving the effect of D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina, if D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina itself is no longer in the Monster Zone, if there is a face-up “Dark Contract” card on your side of the field, the effect will destroy it and finish resolving at that. (The Monster Card your opponent controls that activated its effect remains on the field.)
When resolving the effect of D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina, if the opponent’s Monster Card that activated its effect is no longer on the field, you will either detach 2 Xyz Materials from D/D/D Amnesty King Des Makina or destroy 1 “Dark Contract” card you control. (Only 1 of those effects is applied. If neither can be applied, the effect resolves without applying any effect.)

BACH-JP045 The Undead Vampire

The text that allows you to treat a monster owned by your opponent as a Level 8 monster when using it as Xyz Material for this card is not an effect. (You can treat a monster in your own Monster Zone owned by your opponent that has a Level as a Level 8 monster for this card’s Xyz Summon. Xyz Summoning this card this way does not start a Chain. Special Summoning this card this way is treated as properly Special Summoning this card.)
The effect that prevents this card from being targeted by monster effects is a Continuous Effect.
The effect that sends the top 4 cards of each player’s Deck to the Graveyard is an Ignition Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.
When resolving this effect, send the top 4 cards of each player’s Deck to the Graveyard. Then, if there was a monster sent to either your Graveyard or your opponent’s Graveyard by this effect, you can Special Summon one of those monsters to your field. (These actions do not occur simultaneously.)

BACH-JP046 Spiriting-Away Onibimaru

The effect that banishes an opponent’s monster until their End Phase is an Ignition Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.
This effect can also be applied to a monster in face-down Defense Position. In that case, the monster is banished face-down until your opponent’s End Phase.
Monsters return to the field during your opponent’s next End Phase without starting a Chain, in the same battle position they were in when they were banished. This is not a Special Summon.
The effect that returns banished monsters to the Deck is a Trigger Effect that can be activated if this card is destroyed. (It can also be activated during the Damage Step. If this card was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, this effect activates in the Graveyard, and if this card was destroyed and banished, this effect activates while this card is banished. This effect targets either player’s monsters that are banished face-up, up to the number of Xyz Materials this card had on the field.)

BACH-JP047 Ghostrick Festival

The text that states this card can be Link Summoned using a face-down “Ghostrick” monster as Link Material is not an effect. (Link Summoning this card this way does not start a Chain. Special Summoning this card this way is treated as properly Special Summoning this card.)
The effect that allows your “Ghostrick” monsters to attack directly is a Continuous Effect. (This effect is applied to face-up “Ghostrick” monsters in your Monster Zone.)
The effect that Special Summons a “Ghostrick” monster from your Deck is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.

BACH-JP048 Vampire Fascinator

The effect that Special Summons a monster from your opponent’s Graveyard is a Trigger Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone. (This effect targets 1 monster in your opponent’s Graveyard other than a Link Monster.)

The effect that gains control of an opponent’s monster is an Ignition Effect that can be activated in the Monster Zone.

BACH-JP049 Dharc the Dark Charmer, Umbral

BACH-JP051 Ultimate Fusion

When resolving this card’s effect, return Fusion Materials listed on a Fusion Monster from your hand, field, or Graveyard to the Deck. Then, Fusion Summon the appropriate Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck that lists Blue-Eyes White Dragon or Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon as a material. (These actions do not occur simultaneously.)
If a Blue-Eyes White Dragon or Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon on the field were used as Fusion Materials when resolving this card’s effect, you can then apply the part of the effect that destroys face-up cards your opponent controls. (These actions do not occur simultaneously.)

Q: Can I Fusion Summon Dragon Master Knight with the effect of Ultimate Fusion, using King of the Swamp and Black Luster Solider as Fusion Materials? Also, can I use King of the Swamp and 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragons as Fusion Materials to Fusion Summon Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon?
A: When Fusion Summoning a monster that lists Blue-Eyes White Dragon or Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon as a Fusion Material using the effect of Ultimate Fusion, you must include at least 1 Blue-Eyes White Dragon or Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon as the required material. Therefore, you cannot Fusion Summon Dragon Master Knight using King of the Swamp and Black Luster Solider as materials. (Even if you apply the effect of King of the Swamp to substitute it for a Fusion Material, that does not change its card name, King of the Swamp.)
Furthermore, you can still use King of the Swamp and 2 Blue-Eyes White Dragons as Fusion Materials to Fusion Summon Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon.

Q: If I use a face-down Defense Position Blue-Eyes White Dragon as a Fusion Material using the effect of Ultimate Fusion, can I then destroy face-up cards my opponent controls with the effect of that Ultimate Fusion?

Q: I control The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents and D/D/D Gust High King Alexander. In this situation, my opponent activates Ice Dragon’s Prison and Special Summons D/D/D Gust King Alexander from my Graveyard, then banishes the D/D/D Gust High King Alexander I control and D/D/D Gust King Alexander they control. In this case, can I activate the effect of The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents?
A: The effect of The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents can be activated and applied normally. If your opponent Special Summons a monster with the same card type as a “D/D/D” monster you control, you can activate this effect even if those monsters are no longer on the field by the time the effect is activated. The effect is also still applied even if those monsters are not on the field when the effect resolves.

Q: I control The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents and D/D/D Dragonbane King Beowulf, and the effect of One Day of Peace that prevents players from taking any damage is applied. When my opponent Fusion Summons Beast-Eyes Pendulum Dragon, I activate the effect of The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents, but no damage is inflicted. In this case, will the effect of The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents still prevent my opponent from Special Summoning?
A: Even if the effect of The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents does not inflict any damage, the effect that prevents your opponent from Special Summoning monsters with the same card type as the Special Summoned monster is applied. Therefore, your opponent cannot Special Summon Fusion Monsters while The City of Patented Dark Contract Documents remains on the field.
