Q: I control a Magistus Flame Zoroa equipped with Magistus Dragon Vafram. If my opponent gains control of that Magistus Flame Zoroa, will the effects of the equipped Magistus Dragon Vafram still be applied?
A: The equipped Magistus Dragon Vafram remains in your Spell & Trap Zone even if Magistus Flame Zoroa changes control, and its effects are activated and applied as your effects. Therefore, even in this situation, the effect that prevents the equipped monster from being destroyed by your opponent’s Spell/Trap effects is applied, and that Magistus Flame Zoroa cannot be destroyed by your opponent’s Spell/Trap effects. Also, since that Magistus Flame Zoroa under your opponent’s control cannot battle an opponent’s monster, the effect of Magistus Dragon Vafram that destroys an opponent’s battling monster cannot be activated.

Q: When Magical Dimension is activated, can I chain the effect of Evil★Twin Easy Game and negate the effect?
A: Whether or not Magical Dimension will destroy a monster on the field is decided when the effect is resolving. Since it cannot be determined at the time of activation whether or not a card on the field will be destroyed, it is not treated as an effect that would destroy a card(s) on the field. Therefore, you cannot chain the effect of Evil★Twin Easy Game to negate the effect of Magical Dimension.

Q: Can Draitron Meteornis=DRA attack all Special Summoned monsters my opponent controls with its effect if it was Ritual Summoned using Xyz and Link Monsters?
A: Xyz and Link Monsters do not have Levels, so Xyz and Link Monsters used for the Ritual Summon do not affect the total Levels of monsters used for the Ritual Summon. If you Ritual Summoned using only monsters without Levels, the total Levels will be treated as 0 because you didn’t use any monsters with Levels. As a result, the effect of Draitron Meteornis=DRA will be applied. Also, if you Ritual Summoned using monsters with and without Levels, the effect of Draitron Meteornis=DRA can be applied as long as the total Levels of monsters with Levels is 2 or less.
