TCG Rulings

• "Icarus Attack" targets 2 cards. Even if 1 of the target cards is a Spell or Trap and it is activated in a chain, both cards will still be destroyed.

• You cannot choose "Icarus Attack" itself for 1 of its 2 targets.

You cannot choose a monster on your opponent side of the field.

Mentions in Other Rulings

• Guard Mines: You can Chain Guard Mines to any type of effect that targets and destroys 1 monster you control and only 1 monster you control. You cannot Chain it to cards like Icarus Attack, even if they target 1 monster you control and a Spell or Trap Card.

• Remote Revenge: "Remote Revenge" cannot be chained to an effect that targets 2 or more monsters. If the effect targets only 1 monster while also targeting 1 or more non-Monster Cards, like "Icarus Attack", "Remote Revenge" can be chained.

OCG Rulings

• If "Icarus Attack" targets 1 Spell/Trap Card and 1 Monster Card, you can use "Carrierroid"'s effect to negate it.

• When activating "Icarus Attack", you cannot target the same activated "Icarus Attack" as one of the cards to be destroyed.

• You can Tribute a face-down Winged Beast-Type monster as an activation cost for "Icarus Attack".

• When resolving the effect of "Icarus Attack", if one of the targeted cards is no longer on the field, then the card that is still on the field will still be destroyed.

• If the effect of "Junk Collector" is activated by removing from play a Trap Card like "Icarus Attack" which targets, then you select the effect's target when the effect activates.

• "Guard Mines" can only be activated directly in Chain to an effect which targets one monster. Thus, you cannot Chain "Guard Mines" to an effect like "Icarus Attack" or "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" that targets multiple cards.
