Assorted rulings:

Q: I control a Bujingi Warg in face-up Defense Position. If I Normal Summon Bujin Yamato, and my opponent activates Bottomless Trap Hole, what happens to Bujin Yamato?
A: In this situation, since Bujingi Warg prevents all other “Bujin” monsters you control from being destroyed by card effects while it is in Defense Position, Bujin Yamato will not be destroyed by Bottomless Trap Hole, and so it will not be banished either.

Q: If my opponent controls Evilswarm Ophion with Xyz Material, can I Special Summon Cockadoodledoo using its effects?
A: While the effect of Evilswarm Ophion is applied, Level 5 or higher monsters cannot be Special Summoned. Since Cockadoodledoo is originally Level 5, it cannot be Special Summoned by its own effects.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13732&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: During the turn that I activate Worm Bait, so that Level 3 or 4 monsters cannot be Special Summoned in the same turn, can I Special Summon Cockadoodledoo using its effects?
A: After using Worm Bait, you cannot Special Summon Cockadoodledoo as a Level 3 or Level 4 monster using either of its effects.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13733&keyword=&tag=-1

A: Using the first effect of Cockadoodledoo, it is Special Summoned as a Level 3 monster, but its Level is decreased by 1 because of Stygian Dirge, so it becomes a Level 2 monster. Using the second effect of Cockadoodledoo, it is Special Summoned as a Level 4 monster, but its Level is decreased by 1 because of Stygian Dirge, so it becomes a Level 3 monster.

Q: I activate Noble Arms – Gallatin, targeting Noble Knight Drystan, but Mystical Space Typhoon is chained, targeting and destroying that Noble Arms – Gallatin. Will the effect of Noble Knight Drystan activate?
A: Since Noble Arms – Gallatin is destroyed before it can be equipped to Noble Knight Drystan, the effect of Noble Knight Drystan will not activate. However, since Noble Arms – Gallatin was destroyed and sent to the Graveyard while face-up, it can be equipped once again to 1 Warrior-Type “Noble Knight” monster you control. If equipped to Noble Knight Drystan, its effect will activate this time.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13726&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Noble Arms – Gallatin is equipped to Noble Knight Drystan, and its effect to destroy a face-up card on the field activates. If Mystical Space Typhoon is chained, targeting and destroying that Noble Arms – Gallatin, will the effect of Noble Knight Dystan still resolve?

Q: I control a face-up Noble Knight Drystan and Noble Knight Gawayn. My opponent activates Shadow Spell and targets Noble Knight Gawayn with it, so that its ATK falls below 1800. However, the effect of Noble Knight Drystan prevents other “Noble Knight” monsters with 1800 or less ATK from being targeted by the opponent’s attacks or card effects, so is the effect of Shadow Spell applied?
A: Noble Knight Gawayn has an original ATK of 1900, but Shadow Spell makes its ATK fall below 1800. Even so, the effect of Shadow Spell already targeted Noble Knight Gawayn and continues to apply, but afterward that Noble Knight Gawayn cannot be targeted by any other cards or effects activated by the opponent.

http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13722&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: If a face-down Angel of Zera is banished by the effect of Caius the Shadow Monarch, will the effect of Angel of Zera activate during the next Standby Phase?
A: Cards banished by the effect of Caius the Shadow Monarch are banished face-up, even if they were face-down while on the field. Therefore, the effect of Angel of Zera will activate in this case.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13723&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: My opponent takes control of a monster I originally owned with Enemy Controller, and banishes it with Interdimensional Matter Transporter. In this case, will an Angel of Zera I control gain 100 ATK for that banished monster?
A: In this case, the monster banished by Interdimensional Matter Transporter is considered an opponent’s banished monster, so an Angel of Zera you control will gain 100 ATK for that banished monster.

Q: While Vanity’s Emptiness is active, can I activate Xyz Encore?
A: While Vanity’s Emptiness is active, you cannot Special Summon monsters. But if your opponent controls an Xyz Monster that only has Spell/Trap Cards as Xyz Materials, since no monsters would be Special Summoned, you can target it with Xyz Encore. (It is not possible to target an Xyz Monster that has monsters as Xyz Materials in this case.)
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13717&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: While Necrovalley is active, can I activate Xyz Encore?
A: Yes, you can. In that case, the effects to detach all Xyz Materials from the targeted monster and return the targeted monster to the Extra Deck are applied, but if there are monsters in the Graveyard among the detached materials, the effect of Necrovalley will negate the part of the effect that Special Summons as many of those monsters as possible to your opponent’s side of the field in Defense Position. Since the Special Summon does not take place, the Levels of those monsters are not reduced by 1.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13721&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: While Macro Cosmos is active, can I activate Xyz Encore?
A: Yes, you can. In that case, the effects to detach all Xyz Materials from the targeted monster and return the targeted monster to the Extra Deck are applied, but since the detached materials are banished instead of being sent to the Graveyard, it is impossible to Special Summon as many of those monsters as possible to your opponent’s side of the field in Defense Position. (Returning the Xyz Monster to the Extra Deck is considered the last thing to happen in this case.)
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13720&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Xyz Encore is activated, targeting Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon, which only has Phantom Knight Shadow Veil as Xyz Materials. How does Xyz Encore resolve?
A: In that case, the effects to detach all Xyz Materials from the targeted monster and return the targeted monster to the Extra Deck are applied, but since Phantom Knight Shadow Veil is not a monster while in the Graveyard, it cannot be Special Summoned. (Returning the Xyz Monster to the Extra Deck is considered the last thing to happen in this case.)
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13719&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Xyz Encore is activated, targeting Castel, the Avian Skyblaster, which has Photon Thrasher and Denkou Sekka as Xyz Materials. How does Xyz Encore resolve?
A: In that case, the effects to detach all Xyz Materials from the targeted monster and return the targeted monster to the Extra Deck are applied normally. Since monsters were detached and sent to the Graveyard, the effect to Special Summon them will apply, however, because Denkou Sekka cannot be Special Summoned, only Photon Thrasher will be Special Summoned.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13718&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Moon Dance Ritual has been activated this turn, targeting Totem Bird. When the effect of Moon Dance Ritual activates during the End Phase, if Forbidden Lance is activated, targeting Totem Bird, how does the effect of Moon Dance Ritual resolve?
A: In this case, since Totem Bird will no longer be affected by the effects of other Spell/Trap Cards, the effect of Moon Dance Ritual to attach itself as an Xyz Material to Totem Bird will not apply, and Moon Dance Ritual will remain on the field. Also, the effect that negates the effects of all monsters on the field continues to apply as long as Totem Bird remains on the field. If Totem Bird leaves the field, Moon Dance Ritual is destroyed normally.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13714&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Moon Dance Ritual has been activated during the Main Phase, targeting Totem Bird. Afterward, if Royal Decree is activated, so that the effects of Moon Dance Ritual are negated, what will happen if Totem Bird leaves the field?
A: Normally, when the targeted monster leaves the field, Moon Dance Ritual is destroyed, but in this case, if Royal Decree is negating the effects of Moon Dance Ritual, Moon Dance Ritual will remain on the field after Totem Bird leaves the field. Even so, during the End Phase of the turn Moon Dance Ritual was activated, its effect to attach itself as an Xyz Material will start a chain, but it will not resolve and Moon Dance Ritual remains on the field.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13716&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Moon Dance Ritual is activated this turn, targeting Totem Bird. If Book of Moon is chained, targeting and flipping Totem Bird face-down, how will Moon Dance Ritual resolve?
A: Even if Totem Bird is flipped face-down in a chain to Moon Dance Ritual, the effects of Moon Dance Ritual are applied normally. (While that monster remains on the field, negate the effects of all face-up monsters on the field. When that monster leaves the field, destroy this card. During the End Phase of the turn this card is activated, attach it to the targeted monster as an Xyz Material.)

Q: If Ghostrick Ghoul is the only monster I control, can I activate its effect by targeting itself?
A: If Ghostrick Ghoul is the only monster you control, and its current ATK has not been changed from its original ATK, then its effect cannot be activated by targeting itself. (If Ghostrick Ghoul has had its current ATK changed from its original ATK by Rush Recklessly, etc., then its effect can be activated by targeting itself.)

Q: If a Phantom of Chaos I control that has gained the name of Bujin Yamato is destroyed by battle with an opponent’s monster and sent to the Graveyard, can I activate the effect of Bujingi Raven?
A: In this case, when Phantom of Chaos leaves the field, it loses the gained name. Therefore, this is not a situation in which a “Bujin” monster you control is destroyed and sent to your Graveyard, so the effect of your Bujingi Raven cannot be activated.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13712&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: A Bujin Yamato in Defense Position that I control is destroyed by battle with an opponent’s Red Dragon Archfiend. After damage calculation, the effect of Red Dragon Archfiend activates and destroys Bujin Yamato. Is it still possible to activate the effect of my Bujingi Raven?
A: In this case, after Bujin Yamato is considered destroyed by battle, it is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard by the effect of Red Dragon Archfiend, so the effect of your Bujingi Raven cannot be activated.
http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13711&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: Raigeki Break is activated, targeting Archfiend Giant. Book of Moon is chained, targeting and flipping Archfiend Giant face-down. Can the effect of Archfiend Giant be applied by paying 500 Life Points so that it is not destroyed by Raigeki Break?
A: The effect that allows you to pay 500 Life Points instead of destroying Archfiend Giant is a Continuous Effect, so Archfiend Giant must remain face-up on the field. Therefore, in this example, it is not possible to pay 500 Life Points so that Archfiend Giant is not destroyed by Raigeki Break.

Q: If the effects of Lady of the Lake are negated by Skill Drain or Wattsquirrel, can Lady of the Lake be used as a Synchro Material monster for a non-Warrior-Type monster, and is it still banished if used for a Synchro Summon?

http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=13709&keyword=&tag=-1

Q: If I target an opponent’s Lady of the Lake with the card Synchro Material, and use it for a Synchro Summon, what happens?

The effect of Noble Arms – Caliburn will resolve first, so if that Noble Arms – Caliburn was targeted by the effect of Noble Knight Peredur, then the effect of Noble Knight Peredur will resolve without effect since the target no longer exists in the Graveyard.

Q: During my previous turn, a Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms was equipped by its effect to Noble Knight Artorigus. During my current turn, is it possible to equip a second copy of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms to Noble Knight Artorigus?
A: More than 1 Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms can exist on your side of the field at once, even while they are treated as Equip Cards. Therefore, it is possible to equip a second Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms to Noble Knight Artorigus.

Q: After Noble Knight Artorigus is equipped with Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms, if DNA Transplant is used to change its Attribute, which effect of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms will apply?
A: If the effect of the equipped monster changes, the effect applied by Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms also changes. For example, Noble Knight Artorigus is a LIGHT monster, but if DNA Transplant changes it to a DARK monster, the equipped Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms will apply its DARK effect. Similarly, if Noble Knight Artorigus is changed to a WIND monster, neither effect of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms is applied.

Q: If Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms is equipped to Relinquished by its effect, do the effects of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms apply?
A: Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms only increases the ATK of the equipped monster by 300 if it was equipped by the effect of that Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms. However, the effect based on the equipped monster’s Attribute is applied even if Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms was equipped by another card’s effect, such as Relinquished. (Since Relinquished is a DARK monster, the equipped Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms will apply its DARK effect.)

Q: When attacking a face-down Defense Position monster on the opponent’s side of the field, can I activate the DARK effect of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms to destroy it? In addition, if that monster is a Flip monster, will its effect activate?
A: It is possible to activate the effect. If you do, it activates and resolves at the start of the Damage Step, while the opponent’s monster is still face-down. Since the monster is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard without being flipped face-up, its “FLIP:” effect will not activate if it is a Flip monster.

Q: I control an Ignoble Knight of Black Laundsallyn equipped with Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms, as well as White Dragon Ninja. While the effect of White Dragon Ninja is applied, can I still activate the DARK effect of Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms at the start of the Damage Step?
A: Yes, you can. In this case, the opponent’s monster is destroyed normally, but White Dragon Ninja prevents Gwenhwyfar, Queen of Noble Arms from being destroyed by card effects, so it will not be destroyed by its own effect and will remain equipped.

Q: I control only 1 monster, and 2 copies of Escalation of the Monarchs, and I also have Zaborg the Thunder Monarch and Zaborg the Mega Monarch in my hand. Can I activate the effects of both copies of Escalation of the Monarchs in a chain?
A: In this case, at the time that you activate the effect of Escalation of the Monarchs, you are only able to Tribute Summon Zaborg the Thunder Monarch.

A: Yes, the Summon can be negated by cards like Solemn Warning. However, if the effect of Escalation of the Monarchs was activated as Chain Link 2 or higher, the Tribute Summon is performed before the chain finishes resolving, so it will not be possible to negate that Summon with Solemn Warning.

If the monster you draw has 1500 or less ATK, it is not destroyed if you place that monster back on top of your Deck. If you place a different card on top of your Deck and leave that drawn monster in your hand, it is destroyed.

A: In this situation, after Thunder King Rai-Oh is Special Summoned, Pot of Duality resolves but cannot add a card to the hand, so the chosen card is sent to the Graveyard instead. Since that card is sent from the Deck to the Graveyard, the effect of Earth Shattering can be activated.
