TCG Rulings[]

Mentions in Other Rulings[]

  • Double Tool C&D: A monster equipped with “Double Tool C&D” only negates a monster’s effect during your turn while the 2 monsters are battling. This means that it only negates effects that activate on the field, or are continuous effects while on the field. Effects that activate in the Graveyard like “Sangan” are not negated.
  • Greed Quasar: This card cannot be searched from the Deck by cards like “Sangan” that search based on ATK/DEF.
  • Puppet King: If a card like “Sangan” adds a Monster Card to your opponent’s hand, and their Deck is then shuffled, the last action that occurred was that a Monster Card was added to their hand. So you can activate “Puppet King” and Special Summon it. (The end of “Sangan”’s effect is when the monster is added to the hand.)

OCG Rulings[]

On Searching[]

  • If this card is sent to the Graveyard from your hand or Deck, the effect is not activated.[1]
  • The card that is added to the hand is confirmed by the opponent.[1]

On SEGOC[]

In Other Rulings[]

  • Lightning Warrior: The damage inflicted by the effect of "Lightning Warrior" is based on the number of cards in your opponent's hand when the effect resolves.[7]
    • Example: Your opponent has two cards in his hand, and your "Lightning Warrior" attacks your opponent's "Sangan". The effect of "Lightning Warrior" activates as Chain Link 1, and the effect of "Sangan" activates as Chain Link 2. Resolving backwards, the effect of "Sangan" adds a card to your opponent's hand, and afterwards the effect of "Lightning Warrior" resolves. At this time, your opponent has three cards in his hand, so your opponent takes 900 damage.[7]

  • 7: If other cards are also sent to the Graveyard at the same time, like "Sangan" ..., the card controlled by the turn player is Step 1.

Judge List Rulings

In Other Rulings: On Activating in the Graveyard

  • Prohibition: If "Prohibition" declares "Sangan" ..., if the declared card is on the field when "Prohibition" resolves, its effect will activate when it is sent to the Graveyard. If the declared card is Special Summoned after "Prohibition" resolves, it "cannot be used", so its effect will not activate when it is sent to the Graveyard.

Notes[]

  1. The latest print of "Dark Magician of Chaos" uses Problem-Solving Card Text, which makes it clear that its effect activates during the End Phase of the turn it was Normal or Special Summoned, not when it is Summoned. This also means that its effect cannot be part of Simultaneous Effects Go On Chain. This difference is due to a major change in the functionality of "Dark Magician of Chaos".
