TCG Rulings
- No damage is inflicted when "Caius the Shadow Monarch's" effect removes "Zoma the Spirit" from play or removes a DARK Monster Token.[1]
Mentions in other Rulings
- Imperial Iron Wall: If "Caius the Shadow Monarch" is Tribute Summoned while "Imperial Iron Wall" is active, "Caius the Shadow Monarch's" effect still activates because it is mandatory, but its effect disappears when it resolves.
OCG Rulings
- You do not inflict damage when you remove from play DARK Monster Tokens or Trap Monsters are removed from play. However, you do inflict damage when a DARK Monster (which is being treated as an Equip Card) is removed from play.[4]
- This is a Trigger Effect which targets. Removing the monster and inflicting damage are considered to occur simultaneously.[3]
- If you remove "Caius the Shadow Monarch" with his own effect, you still inflict 1000 damage.[3]
- When the targetted card is a face-down card, the card is removed from play face-up. If it was a DARK Monster, you still inflict 1000 damage.[5]
- If "Imperial Iron Wall" is active, "Caius the Shadow Monarch"'s effect activates and you target a card, but you do not remove the card from play.[6]
Semi-official Rulings
- "Caius the Shadow Monarch" does not need to remain on the field for either part of his effect to resolve.[7]
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror/[[:Card Rulings:|]]: Suppose "Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror" and "[[:]]" are both face-up on the field, and a player Tribute Summons "Caius the Shadow Monarch". If both players have the same number of cards in their hands when resolving the effect of "Caius the Shadow Monarch", then the turn player's effect negates the effect of "Caius the Shadow Monarch". Or, if the same player controls both "Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror" and "[[:]]", then that player chooses which effect negates the effect of "Caius the Shadow Monarch".[8]
