This is actually Redshift, not Dan, here to help you understand effects that let you Normal Summon more than once per turn.

Players like to ask &#8220;do my Tensus stack?&#8221;, or &#8220;can I stack Castor and Kerykeion?&#8221; If you are one of those players, read this.<\/p>\n<p>By looking at rulings, we can sort these effects into three groups with a common set of rules.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Group 1<\/span><\/b><br \/>\nChain Summoning<br \/>\nDouble Summon<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Snowl<br \/>\nFloowandereeze and the Scary Sea<br \/>\nTime-Tearing Morganite<br \/>\nUltimeat Offering (first effect)<\/p>\n<p>What these cards do is adjust the normal limit on how many Normal Summons\/Sets you are allowed to make in a turn. It\u2019s like how monsters can usually attack only once per Battle Phase, but monsters like Cyber Twin Dragon can attack twice normally. These cards set the limit to a fixed number. If you play Double Summon, this changes the number from 1 to 2. If you play Chain Summoning, this changes the number from 1 to 3. This means that you cannot play 2 copies of Double Summon in the same turn. If you play Chain Summoning after playing Double Summon earlier that turn, you still get 3 total (the bigger number of the two), but not 5. These Group 1 effects will stack with Groups 2 and 3 (soon-to-be-mentioned), but not with each other.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Group 2<\/span><\/b><br \/>\nAncient Chant<br \/>\nAngel O1<br \/>\nAromage Jasmine<br \/>\nArtmage Academic Arcane Arts Acropolis<br \/>\nAtlantean Heavy Infantry<br \/>\nBalancer Lord<br \/>\nBattlin&#8217; Boxer Chief Second<br \/>\nBattlewasp &#8211; Sachi the Ceremonial Bow<br \/>\nBlackwing &#8211; Nothung the Starlight<br \/>\nBrain Research Lab<br \/>\nBreath of the Tistina<br \/>\nBridge of the Heart<br \/>\nCard Advance<br \/>\nCartorhyn the Hidden Gem of the Seafront<br \/>\nCatalyst Field<br \/>\nCircle of Fairies<br \/>\nClear Cube<br \/>\nConstellar Leonis<br \/>\nConstellar Pollux<br \/>\nDark Beckoning Beast<br \/>\nDarkness Resonator<br \/>\nDverg of the Nordic Alfar<br \/>\nEarthbound Prison<br \/>\nEidos the Underworld Squire<br \/>\nEvilswarm Castor<br \/>\nFire Formation &#8211; Tensu<br \/>\nGem-Knight Seraphinite<br \/>\nGeneral Grunard of the Ice Barrier<br \/>\nGhostrick Mummy<br \/>\nGimmick Puppet Fantasix Machinix<br \/>\nGoblin Biker Grand Bash<br \/>\nGouki Thunder Ogre<br \/>\nIce Knight<br \/>\nImduk the World Chalice Dragon<br \/>\nJJ &#8220;Kewl Tune&#8221;<br \/>\nKarakuri Komachi mdl 224 &#8220;Ninishi&#8221;<br \/>\nKnightmare Goblin<br \/>\nLaser Qlip<br \/>\nLaval Archer<br \/>\nLegion the Fiend Jester<br \/>\nMadolche Salon<br \/>\nMaginificent Magikey Mafteal<br \/>\nMausoleum of White<br \/>\nMithra the Thunder Vassal<br \/>\nMoissa Wight<br \/>\nNikitama<br \/>\nNoble Knight Custennin<br \/>\nPerformapal Hip Hippo<br \/>\nPhoton Emperor<br \/>\nRed-Eyes Retro Dragon<br \/>\nRescue-ACE HQ<br \/>\nRitual Beast Tamer Elder<br \/>\nRose Papillon<br \/>\nScrap Raptor<br \/>\nSerenade the Melodious Diva<br \/>\nShadow&#8217;s Light<br \/>\nSimorgh, Bird of Beginning<br \/>\nStarry Knight Sky<br \/>\nSteelswarm Gatekeeper<br \/>\nSuperdreadnought Rail Cannon Flying Launcher<br \/>\nSwap Frog<br \/>\nSymphonic Warrior Miccs<br \/>\nSynchro Fellows<br \/>\nSynchron Carrier<br \/>\nT.G.

These effects give you 1 additional Normal Summon (or Set) between all of them. That means they don\u2019t stack with each other. However, they do stack with Group 1. For example:<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf If you activated Card Advance, and control a Fire Formation &#8211; Tensu and Gem-Knight Seraphinite, you can only use 1 of those three cards&#8217; extra Normal Summon\/Sets. Once you do, you cannot use the other 2 cards&#8217; Normal Summons\/Sets the same turn, since you already &#8220;gain[ed] this effect once per turn&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>\u25cf If you activated Double Summon (a Group 1 card) and the effect of Swap Frog (Group 2), you can Normal Summon\/Set twice normally, <em>and<\/em> also Normal Summon a \u201cFrog\u201d monster.<\/p>\n<p>You are not forced to perform these Normal Summon\/Sets in any certain order. For example, you can play Fire Formation &#8211; Tensu at the start of your turn, and use the additional Normal Summon granted by it to Normal Summon something like Brotherhood of the Fire Fist &#8211; Bear. Then, even if Tensu isn\u2019t on the field anymore (possibly due to Bear), you still have your regular Normal Summon\/Set for that turn.<\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Group 3<\/span><\/b><br \/>\nAltergeist Revitalization<br \/>\nAncient Gear Commander<br \/>\nAntialian<br \/>\nArcana Reading<br \/>\nArgostars &#8211; Giantslaying<br \/>\nArrivalrivals<br \/>\nBahalutiya, the Grand Radiance<br \/>\nBeetrooper Armor Horn<br \/>\nBlackwing &#8211; Simoon the Poison Wind<br \/>\nCapricious Darklord<br \/>\nChronomaly Temple &#8211; Trilithon<br \/>\nClown Clan Whiteface<br \/>\nConduction Warrior Plasma Magnum<br \/>\nConstellar Sombre<br \/>\nCosmic Slicer Zer\u2019oll<br \/>\nCounter Gate<br \/>\nCry Havoc!<br \/>\nCyberdark Inferno<br \/>\nCyberdark Realm<br \/>\nCynet Optimization<br \/>\nDark Advance<br \/>\nDisciples of the True Dracophoenix<br \/>\nDoodle Beast \u2013 Tyranno<br \/>\nEhther the Heavenly Monarch<br \/>\nElborz, the Sacred Lands of Simorgh<br \/>\nElectrode Beast Cation<br \/>\nEscalation of the Monarchs<br \/>\nEvilswarm Kerykeion<br \/>\nExosister Betrayal<br \/>\nFairy Tail Tales<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Eglen<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Empen<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Robina<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Stri<br \/>\nFloowandereeze &amp; Toccan<br \/>\nFloowandereeze and the Dreaming Town<br \/>\nFloowandereeze and the Magnificent Map<br \/>\nFree-Range Monsters<br \/>\nGagaga Illusion<br \/>\nGem-Knight Nepyrim<br \/>\nGemini Summoner<br \/>\nGizmek Yata, the Gleaming Vanguard<br \/>\nHarpie Dancer<br \/>\nHi-Speedroid Rubber Band Shooter<br \/>\nHorned Saurus<br \/>\nIchiki Sayori-Hime<br \/>\nJoker&#8217;s Straight<br \/>\nKewl Tune Rotary<br \/>\nKuribeh<br \/>\nLahamu the Messenger of Sacred Scripture<br \/>\nMahunder<br \/>\nMecha Phantom Beast O-Lion<br \/>\nMiasma Necromancer<br \/>\nMotor Kaiser<br \/>\nNecrovalley Throne<br \/>\nOjamatch<br \/>\nPahunder<br \/>\nPrima Light<br \/>\nPrimite Imperial Dragon<br \/>\nProof of Pruflas<br \/>\nRepair Genex Controller<br \/>\nRitual Beast Ulti-Kimunfalcos<br \/>\nRitual Beast Ulti-Reirautari<br \/>\nRuddy Rose Witch<br \/>\nSakitama<br \/>\nSamsara Dragon<br \/>\nSimorgh, Bird of Perfection<br \/>\nSoul Crossing<br \/>\nSoul Energy MAX!!!<br \/>\nSpell Card &#8220;Soul Exchange&#8221;<br \/>\nSpiritual Beast Tamer Lara<br \/>\nSummon Dice<br \/>\nSupermagic Sword of Raptinus<br \/>\nTales of Fairy Tail<br \/>\nTellarknight Constellar Delteros<br \/>\nTessera the Primal Squire<br \/>\nThe Duke of Demise<br \/>\nThe Monarchs Masterplan<br \/>\nThe Weather Forecast<br \/>\nThunderspeed Summon<br \/>\nTrue Draco Apocalypse<br \/>\nTrue Draco Heritage<br \/>\nTrue King&#8217;s Return<br \/>\nTwin Pillars of Ice<br \/>\nUltimate Offering<br \/>\nUltimeat Offering (second effect)<br \/>\nUnion Activation<br \/>\nVampire Ghost<br \/>\nWheel Synchron<br \/>\nYosenju Kama 1<br \/>\nYosenju Kama 2<br \/>\nYosenju Kama 3<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, this group of Normal Summons\/Sets has no limits*. You can stack them with each other, and Groups 1 and 2. You can spam the field with Ultimate Offering&#8217;s effect, and\/or use the HUNDERs&#8217; effects to swarm the field from your hand. However, these Normal Summons\/Sets are unique since you must immediately conduct them when the Normal Summon\/Set effect resolves. You cannot decide to wait until later in the turn to Normal Summon\/Set, unlike Groups 1 and 2.<\/p>\n<p>* Some of these Normal Summon\/Set effects can only be activated once per turn, such as Constellar Sombre, Harpie Dancer, and Necrovalley Throne. So technically there can be limits. But this doesn&#8217;t prevent you from using other Group 3 cards for more Normal Summons\/Sets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi folks.
