In this case, will the effect of a Destiny HERO – Decisionguy in my Graveyard that adds it to my hand and reduces the effect damage to 0 activate?
A: Even in this scenario, since the effect of your opponent’s Black Pendant activated, the effect of your Destiny HERO – Decisionguy will activate. (In this case, its effect becomes Chain Link 3.) However, since the effect of Destiny HERO – Decisionguy was not activated directly on the Chain after the effect that inflicts damage, although it will still be added to your hand, the damage from the activated effect is not reduced to 0.

A: If your opponent activates Ceasefire, you must determine whether or not it would inflict damage to you. For example, if the only monsters on the field are in face-down Defense Position, and/or are face-up Normal Monsters, the effect of Ceasefire is not an effect that you know will inflict damage to you, so the effect of Destiny HERO – Decisionguy in your Graveyard does not activate. Note that if any face-up Effect Monsters are present on the field, the effect of Destiny HERO – Decisionguy will activate.

Q: A face-up Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy on my field is equipped with United We Stand, and its ATK becomes 3600 and DEF becomes 3200. If I then activate the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy that destroys a card on the field, what will its ATK and DEF become?
A: When the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy is applied, its current ATK becomes equal to its original ATK of 2800. Therefore, after the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy resolves, its ATK is 2800 and its DEF is 3200. Note that in this situation, if a new monster is Summoned to your field, the ATK of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy remains 2800 but its DEF is further increased by 800, and becomes 4000.

Q: Shrink is activated by targeting Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy, and its ATK becomes 1400. In this situation, can I activate the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy that destroys a card on the field?
A: If the effect of Shrink is applied, the halved original ATK is treated as the monster’s new original ATK. Therefore, in this scenario, the original ATK of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy is not different from its current ATK, so you cannot activate its effect that destroys a card on the field.

Q: Mystic Plasma Zone is face-up in the Field Zone. If Shrink was activated by targeting Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy, can I then activate the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy that destroys a card on the field?
A: In this scenario, Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy will have 1900 ATK and 2000 DEF. Since the effect of Shrink is applied, the original ATK of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy is currently 1400, so its current ATK and original ATK are different. (You can therefore activate the effect of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy.) In this situation, the effect will destroy the targeted card and then make the ATK of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy become equal to its original ATK, so its ATK becomes 1400. Furthermore, once the turn ends and the effect of Shrink stops applying, the ATK of Destiny HERO – Dystopiaguy remains 1400.

A: In this scenario, even though there are 4 “Destiny HERO” monsters in your Graveyard, Destiny HERO – Plasma and Destiny HERO – Dogma are both monsters that cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard, so there are no “Destiny HERO” monsters in your Graveyard that can be targeted with the effect of Destiny HERO – Dark Angel.

A: The Pendulum Effect of Abyss Actor – Dandy CoStar creates a Chain when you perform a successful Pendulum Summon. Since this effect does not vary depending on the number of monsters you Pendulum Summoned, even if you Pendulum Summoned 2 or more monsters at the same time, the effect of Abyss Actor – Dandy CoStar only activates once, and you add 1 Level 1 or 8 “Abyss Actor” Pendulum Monster from your Extra Deck to your hand.

A: When resolving the monster effect of Abyss Actor – Dandy CoStar, even if you no longer have 2 “Abyss Actor” cards in your Pendulum Zones, the effect is applied normally.

Q: I activate the second effect of Abyss Prop – Escape Stage Coach by targeting my Abyss Actor – Sassy Rookie. If Book of Moon is chained, and Abyss Actor – Sassy Rookie is changed to face-down Defense Position, how does the effect of Abyss Prop – Escape Stage Coach resolve?
A: When resolving the effect of Abyss Prop – Escape Stage Coach, even if the targeted monster is in face-down Defense Position, the effect is applied normally. Even if that monster is flipped face-up, your opponent still cannot target it with card effects until the end of their turn.

Q: Abyss Actor – Superstar is face-up on my field in Attack Position. In this situation, if I activate Abyss Script – Rise of the Dark Ruler, can my opponent chain Solemn Judgment?
A: In this scenario, since you have Abyss Actor – Superstar on your field, you are activating Abyss Script – Rise of the Dark Ruler while you control a Level 7 or higher “Abyss Actor” monster. Therefore, in this case, your opponent cannot chain Solemn Judgment to Abyss Script – Rise of the Dark Ruler.

Q: Abyss Actor – Wild Hope and Abyss Actor – Extra are both in my Pendulum Zones. In this situation, I activate Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room, but my opponent chains Mystical Space Typhoon and destroys the Abyss Actor – Extra in my Pendulum Zone. In this case, how does the effect of Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room resolve?
A: Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room can only be activated if you have 2 “Abyss Actor” cards in your Pendulum Zones. In this scenario, even if you do not have 2 “Abyss Actor” cards in your Pendulum Zones when the effect of Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room resolves, the effect will add 2 different “Abyss Actor” Pendulum Monsters from your Main Deck to your Extra Deck normally.

Q: I activate Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room, but then chain my own Needlebug Nest and send 5 cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard. As a result, if the only remaining “Abyss Actor” Pendulum Monsters in my Deck when Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room resolves are 2 copies of Abyss Actor – Sassy Rookie, what happens?
A: The effect of Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room must add 2 “Abyss Actor” Pendulum Monsters with different names from your Main Deck to your Extra Deck. In this scenario, since the only “Abyss Actor” Pendulum Monsters in your Deck are copies of Abyss Actor – Sassy Rookie, the effect of Entering the Abyss Actor Dressing Room is not applied. (No monsters are added to your Extra Deck.)

Q: There are 2 Effect Monsters face-up on my opponent’s field. In this situation, I Tribute Summon Darklord Lucifer and activate its effect that Special Summons “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters from my hand or Deck. If my opponent chains Book of Moon or Compulsory Evacuation Device, so that one of the Effect Monsters on their field is either changed to face-down Defense Position or leaves the field, how does the effect of Darklord Lucifer resolve?
A: The effect of Darklord Lucifer that activates when it is Tribute Summoned Special Summons “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters from your hand or Deck, up to the number of face-up Effect Monsters present on your opponent’s field when the effect is resolving. In this scenario, if Book of Moon or Compulsory Evacuation Device was chained to the effect so that the number of Effect Monsters on your opponent’s field becomes 1, only 1 “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster can be Special Summoned.

Q: There are 4 Effect Monsters face-up on my opponent’s field. In this situation, if I Tribute Summon Darklord Lucifer, but I do not have 4 “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters in my hand or Main Deck, can I activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer?
A: The effect of Darklord Lucifer that activates when it is Tribute Summoned Special Summons “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters from your hand or Deck, up to the number of face-up Effect Monsters present on your opponent’s field when the effect is resolving. In this scenario, you can activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer as long as you have at least 1 “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster in your hand or Deck, but you do not need to Special Summon the same number of monsters that your opponent has.

Q: Darklord Lucifer, Darklord Mastema, and Darklord Superbia are face-up on my field, and there are 2 cards left in my Deck. In this situation, can I activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer that sends cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard?
A: The effect of Darklord Lucifer sends cards from the top of your Deck to the Graveyard equal to the number of “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters on the field. In this situation, since there are 3 “Darklord” monsters on the field, but you only have 2 cards left in your Deck, you cannot activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer.

Q: Darklord Lucifer, Darklord Mastema, and Darklord Superbia are face-up on my field, and there are 3 cards left in my Deck. In this situation, if I activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer that sends cards from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard, but my opponent chains Call of the Haunted and Special Summons Darklord Edeh Arae, how will the effect of Darklord Lucifer resolve?
A: The effect of Darklord Lucifer sends cards from the top of your Deck to the Graveyard equal to the number of “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters on the field. In this situation, since there are 4 “Darklord” monsters on the field when the effect of Darklord Lucifer resolves, but you only have 3 cards left in your Deck, the remaining cards in your Deck are sent to the Graveyard. If there are any “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters among those sent cards, the part of the effect that increases your Life Points is applied normally.

Q: Macro Cosmos is face-up on my opponent’s field. In this situation, can I activate the effect of Darklord Lucifer that sends a card(s) from the top of my Deck to the Graveyard?
A: Even in this situation, you can activate that effect of Darklord Lucifer. In that case, since the effect of Macro Cosmos is applying, the top card(s) of your Deck equal to the number of “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters on the field are banished instead of being sent to the Graveyard. If there are any “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monsters among those banished cards, since they were not sent to the Graveyard, you do not gain any Life Points.

Q: During the turn I activated Casting out the Darklords, if I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, can I choose Casting out the Darklords?
A: You can only activate 1 Casting out the Darklords per turn. However, the effects of monsters such as Darklord Ixtab do not activate the “Darklord” card they target in the Graveyard. When these effects resolve, they become the same as the effect of the targeted Spell/Trap Card when it is normally activated. Therefore, in this scenario, you can activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. by targeting Casting out the Darklords during the same turn it was previously activated.

Q: I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Darklords’ Temptation in my Graveyard. At that time, do I have to send a “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster from my hand or field to the Graveyard?
A: When you activate the effect of a monster such as Darklord Ixtab, you do not have to pay any costs of the “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card that you target. The effect of taking control of 1 face-up monster on the opponent’s field will be applied as the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc.

Q: I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Altar of the Darklords in my Graveyard. If my opponent chains the effect of D.D. Crow, banishing Altar of the Darklords from my Graveyard, how does the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. resolve?
A: When resolving the effect of a monster such as Darklord Ixtab, if the targeted “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card is no longer in your Graveyard, the effect does not copy the targeted Spell/Trap Card’s effect, nor does it return that targeted card to your Deck.

Q: I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Altar of the Darklords in my Graveyard. If my opponent chains Compulsory Evacuation Device, and Darklord Ixtab, etc. is returned to the hand, how does its effect resolve?
A: When resolving the effect of a monster such as Darklord Ixtab that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in your Graveyard, even if that monster is no longer face-up on the field, the effect is applied normally and becomes the targeted Spell/Trap Card’s effect, then returns it to the Deck.

Q: I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Darklords Falling from Grace in my Graveyard. If Skill Drain is chained, how does the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. resolve?
A: The effects of monsters such as Darklord Ixtab are not effects that activate the targeted “Darklord” Spell/Trap Cards, but are monster effects that become the same as the targeted card’s effect when it is activated. Therefore, if the effect of Skill Drain is applying, the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. is negated and it does not copy the targeted Spell/Trap Card’s effect, nor does it return that targeted card to your Deck.

Q: Necrovalley is face-up in the Field Zone. In this situation, can I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard?
A: While the effect of Necrovalley is applying, you can activate this effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. However, the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. is an effect that would move a card in the Graveyard to another location, so it will be negated. (The effect does not copy the targeted Spell/Trap Card’s effect, nor does it return that targeted card to your Deck.)

Q: Darklord Asmodeus is the only face-up monster on my opponent’s field. In this situation, I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Darklords’ Temptation in my Graveyard. If Book of Moon is chained, and Darklord Asmodeus is changed to face-down Defense Position, how does the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. resolve?
A: In this scenario, when resolving the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc., the effect becomes that of Darklords’ Temptation, but because there is no longer a face-up monster on the opponent’s field, the effect cannot be applied. Even in that case, the targeted Darklords’ Temptation is returned to the Deck afterward.

Q: Darklord Zerato is the only face-up monster on my opponent’s field. In this situation, I activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in my Graveyard, targeting Darklords Falling from Grace in my Graveyard. If Forbidden Lance is chained, and Darklord Zerato becomes unaffected by Spell/Trap effects, how does the effect of Darklord Ixtab, etc. resolve?
A: The effects of monsters such as Darklord Ixtab are not effects that activate the targeted “Darklord” Spell/Trap Cards, but are monster effects that become the same as the targeted card’s effect when it is activated. Therefore, in this scenario, the effect of destroying 1 card on the field is applied and even if Darklord Zerato is chosen, it is destroyed normally. (Afterward, Darklords Falling from Grace is returned to the Deck.)

Q: I activated Altar of the Darklords this turn and Special Summoned a Darklord Ixtab from my Graveyard. In this situation, if I activate Reasoning or Monster Gate, and another copy of Darklord Ixtab is excavated, how does the rest of the effect resolve?
A: Since Darklord Ixtab is a monster that can be Normal Summoned/Set, if it is excavated by the effect of Reasoning and its Level is different than the Level declared by the opponent, it will be Special Summoned. Similarly, if Darklord Ixtab is excavated by the effect of Monster Gate, it will be Special Summoned. However, in this situation, since you already Special Summoned a Darklord Ixtab this turn with the effect of Altar of the Darklords, Darklord Ixtab cannot be Special Summoned by the effect of Reasoning or Monster Gate, and is sent to the Graveyard. (No further cards are excavated.)

Q: I activated the effect of Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen this turn and Special Summoned a Darklord Mastema from my hand. In this situation, if I activate Altar of the Darklords, can I Special Summon a Darklord Mastema from my Graveyard?
A: You can only Special Summon Darklord Mastema once per turn. In this scenario, since you Special Summoned Darklord Mastema with the effect of Valhalla, Hall of the Fallen this turn, you cannot Special Summon a Darklord Mastema with the effect of Altar of the Darklords. (If you do not have a “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster in your Graveyard other than Darklord Mastema, you cannot activate Altar of the Darklords.)

Q: If a face-down Defense Position “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster on my field would be destroyed by battle or card effect, can I apply the effect of a Darklord Tezcatlipoca in my hand and discard it instead?
A: If a face-down Defense Position “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster would be destroyed by battle, since it is flipped face-up before damage calculation, you can apply the effect of a Darklord Tezcatlipoca in your hand and discard it instead. If a face-down Defense Position “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster would be destroyed by the effect of a card such as Torrential Tribute, you cannot apply the effect of Darklord Tezcatlipoca.

Q: If I activate the effect of Darklord Mastema that Special Summons it from my hand, but Vanity’s Emptiness is chained, how does the effect resolve?
A: In this scenario, if Vanity’s Emptiness is chained to the effect of Darklord Mastema, it is not possible to Special Summon it, so Darklord Mastema remains in your hand. Note that while the effect of Vanity’s Emptiness is already applying, you cannot activate the effect of Darklord Mastema that Special Summons it.

Q: Macro Cosmos is face-up on my opponent’s field. In this situation, can I activate the effect of Darklord Amdusias that adds a “Darklord” or “Fallen One” card in my Graveyard to my hand?
A: Even in this situation, you can activate that effect of Darklord Amdusias. In that case, since the effect of Macro Cosmos is applying, Darklord Amdusias and the other “Darklord” or “Fallen One” monster that you discard for the cost are banished instead of being sent to the Graveyard. Even so, the targeted card in your Graveyard is added to your hand normally.

However, if you activate the effect of Darklord Ixtab, Darklord Tezcatlipoca, Darklord Mastema, or Darklord Amdusias that copies the effect of a “Darklord” Spell/Trap Card in your Graveyard, and copy the effect of Altar of the Darklords to Special Summon Darklord Superbia from your Graveyard, the effect will then return Altar of the Darklords to your Deck so the optional effect of Darklord Superbia cannot be activated.
