Synchro Summon
How to Summon a Synchro Monster
1. During your Main Phase, when the total Level of a Tuner Monster and 1 or more monster(s) you control is equal to the Level of a Synchro Monster you want to summon, you can declare that you are performing a Synchro Summon. Redundant monster(s) are irrelevant.
2. In order to match the Level of the Synchro Monster you summon, send 1 Tuner Monster and other monster(s) with an equal total Level to the Graveyard. Basically, it's only necessary to have 1 Tuner Monster.
3. After sending the monster from your side of the field to the Graveyard, you place the Synchro Monster monster from your Extra Deck in face-up Attack or Defense Position on your field.
