DBLE-JP002 Tune Magician
Q: A Tune Magician that was Special Summoned by the effect of Call of the Haunted is face-up on my opponent’s field. Can I activate the effect of Number 101: Silent Honor ARK by targeting that Tune Magician?
A: Tune Magician cannot be used as Fusion, Synchro, or Xyz Material for a Summon unless all other monsters used are also “Magician” Pendulum Monsters, but becoming an Xyz Material by the effect of Number 101: Silent Honor ARK is not considered being used as Xyz Material for a Summon. Therefore, a face-up Attack Position Tune Magician that was Special Summoned can be attached to Number 101: Silent Honor ARK as an Xyz Material.

Q: I Special Summoned an Acrobatic Magician with the monster effect of Tune Magician. Afterward, if Acrobatic Magician is destroyed by battle, can I activate its effect that places it in my Pendulum Zone?
A: In this scenario, if Acrobatic Magician was Special Summoned by the effect of Tune Magician, its effects are negated and it is banished when it leaves the field, so the destroyed Acrobatic Magician is banished instead of being placed face-up in the Extra Deck. When it is banished, its effect that places it in your Pendulum Zone can be activated normally and it is not negated by the effect of Tune Magician. Therefore, the banished Acrobatic Magician is placed in one of your vacant Pendulum Zones.

DBLE-JP003 The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws
Q: The Phantom Knights of Shadow Veil that was Special Summoned by its own effect is then banished when it leaves the field. Can I activate The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws by targeting that banished copy of The Phantom Knights of Shadow Veil?
A: Even if it was banished by its own effect after being Special Summoned, The Phantom Knights of Shadow Veil is not treated as a banished “The Phantom Knights” monster. Therefore, The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws cannot be activated by targeting it.

Q: Can the second effect of The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws be activated more than once at a time when an opponent’s monster declares a direct attack?
A: The effect of The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws that activates in your Graveyard can only be activated once per declaration of an opponent’s direct attack. If there are 2 or more copies of The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws in your Graveyard, each one can activate its effect when an opponent’s monster declares a direct attack, but if there is only 1, its effect cannot be activated more than once during this attack declaration.

A: When resolving the effect of The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws that activated in the Graveyard, even if the monster that declared a direct attack can no longer attack, it will resolve normally.

Q: The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws is Special Summoned by its own effect along with The Phantom Knights of Cloven Helm. In this situation, if Book of Moon is activated, and The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws is changed to face-down Defense Position, what happens to its Level?
A: If The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws was Special Summoned by its own effect, its Level is the same as the Level of the monster targeted with its effect. In this scenario, The Phantom Knights of Cloven Helm was targeted, so The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws is Special Summoned as a Level 4 monster. If it is then changed to face-down Defense Position by the effect of Book of Moon, it will still be treated as a Level 4 monster. (The effect that banishes it when it would leave the field is no longer applied.)

Q: The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws is Special Summoned by its own effect along with The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots. Afterward, if The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots leaves the field, is it banished?
A: Only The Phantom Knights of Mist Claws is banished when it leaves the field if it was Special Summoned by its own effect. Thus, “The Phantom Knights” monster that was targeted and Special Summoned by this effect (in this case, The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots) is not banished if it leaves the field.

Q: During my Main Phase, I activate Speedrift and Special Summon a Speedroid Red-Eyed Dice. Upon its Special Summon, can I activate the effect of Speedroid Red-Eyed Dice? Also, can my opponent activate Torrential Tribute?
A: When a monster is Special Summoned by the effect of Speedrift, neither player can activate cards or effects in response to the Summon, so neither the effect of Speedroid Red-Eyed Dice nor Torrential Tribute can be activated in this scenario.

DBLE-JP006 Ostinato
Q: When Fusion Summoning Bloom Prima the Melodious Choir with the effect of Ostinato, which Fusion Materials can I use?
A: Bloom Prima the Melodious Choir requires 1 “Melodious Maestra” monster and 1 or more “Melodious” monsters as Fusion Materials. While performing a Fusion Summon with the effect of Ostinato, you can only send a total of 2 monsters from your hand or Deck as Fusion Materials, so you will send 1 “Melodious Maestra” monster and 1 “Melodious” monster from your hand/Deck to the Graveyard. (You cannot send 3 or more monsters to the Graveyard.)

Q: I activate Ostinato and Fusion Summon a Bloom Prima the Melodious Choir. Now, can my opponent activate Torrential Tribute?
A: When Ostinato is first activated, the last part of its effect to resolve is considered the Special Summon of a “Melodious” Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck. Therefore, when Bloom Prima the Melodious Choir is Fusion Summoned from the Extra Deck in this scenario, your opponent can activate Torrential Tribute.
Q: I activate Ostinato and send Mozarta the Melodious Maestra and Sonata the Melodious Diva from my hand/Deck to the Graveyard to Fusion Summon Bloom Diva the Melodious Choir. In this case, when the effect of Ostinato is applied during the End Phase, what happens?
A: If Bloom Diva the Melodious Choir is Special Summoned with the effect of Ostinato, since Bloom Diva the Melodious Choir is not destroyed by card effects, it is not destroyed by Ostinato during the End Phase. In this case, you cannot Special Summon any of its Fusion Material monsters from the Graveyard.

A: Even if the effect of Vanity’s Emptiness is applying during the End Phase, the effect of Ostinato will still destroy the Special Summoned Fusion Monster. Since you cannot Special Summon, you are not able to Special Summon any Fusion Material monsters from your Graveyard. (In this scenario, Schuberta the Melodious Maestra will be destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, while Aria the Melodious Diva and Elegy the Melodious Diva remain in your Graveyard.)

A: Even if one of the monsters sent to the Graveyard as Fusion Materials with the effect of Ostinato is no longer in the Graveyard during the End Phase, the effect of Ostinato will still destroy the Special Summoned Fusion Monster. Since all the Fusion Material monsters that were used for the Fusion Summon are not in the Graveyard, you are not able to Special Summon any monsters from the Graveyard.

After the effect resolves, if my opponent activates Book of Eclipse and changes D/D/D Gust King Alexander to face-down Defense Position, what happens to the applied effect?
A: In this scenario, if D/D/D Gust King Alexander is changed to face-down Defense Position by the effect of Book of Eclipse, the effect of Dark Contract with the Grotesque Entity is no longer applied. Therefore, your opponent will be able to target your D/D/D Gust King Alexander with card effects.

Q: If Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon has Raidraptor – Blaze Falcon as its only Xyz Material, can it attack twice during each Battle Phase?

Therefore, since Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon has only Raidraptor – Blaze Falcon attached as an Xyz Material, it can only attack once per Battle Phase.

Q: When my Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon that has Raidraptor – Revolution Falcon attached as Xyz Material is sent to the Graveyard, I activate its effect that Special Summons another “Raidraptor” Xyz Monster from the Extra Deck and attaches Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon to it from the Graveyard as an Xyz Material. If my opponent chains the effect of D.D. Crow to this effect, and banishes Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon from my Graveyard, how does its effect resolve?
A: As in this scenario, even if Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon is no longer in the Graveyard when its effect resolves, you still Special Summon a “Raidraptor” Xyz Monster from your Extra Deck. The part of the effect that attaches Raidraptor – Arsenal Falcon to the Special Summoned monster is not applied.
