Q: I activate Spin Turn, targeting my face-up Defense Position Infinitrack Colossal Mountain and face-up The Hidden City in my opponent’s Field Zone. If my opponent chains Raigeki Break and destroys my Infinitrack Colossal Mountain, how does the effect of Spin Turn resolve?
A: In this scenario, if the effect of Spin Turn was activating targeting a Defense Position Infinitrack Colossal Mountain and an opponent’s Spell/Trap Card, but that Infinitrack Colossal Mountain is no longer on the field when the effect resolves, you cannot apply the effect of Spin Turn that changes your monster’s battle position, so the targeted Spell/Trap Card is not destroyed. (The Hidden City will remain face-up in the Field Zone.)

Q: Macro Cosmos is face-up in my opponent’s Spell & Trap Zone, and its effect that banishes any card that would be sent to the Graveyard is applying. In this situation, when activating the effect of Witchcraft Poterie that Special Summons a “Witchcraft” monster from the Deck, can I apply the effect of Witchcraft Scroll and send it to the Graveyard instead of discarding?
A: Even while the effect of Macro Cosmos is applying, you can apply the effect of Witchcraft Scroll that sends it to the Graveyard instead when you would discard a Spell Card to activate the effect of Witchcraft Poterie. In that case, when activating the effect, the Tributed Witchcraft Poterie and Witchcraft Scroll are both banished due to the effect of Macro Cosmos instead of being sent to the Graveyard, but the effect of Witchcraft Poterie is applied normally.
