Q&A Rulings

• Q: If "Daigusto Sphreez" (ATK 2000) battles "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" (ATK 0), which player takes battle damage?

A: The controller of "Daigusto Sphreez" takes 2000 damage. An effect that makes the opponent take any battle damage instead is not applied to the damage caused by another effect that makes the opponent take battle damage instead.

• Q: How is damage calculated if "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" equipped with "Double-Edged Sword" battles in the following situations?

• (A) When attacking directly.
• (B) When it is in Defense Position and attacked by "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon".
• (C) When it battles "Number C96: Dark Storm" and both monsters are in Attack Position.
• (D) When it battles an opponent's "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" and both monsters are in Attack Position.
• (E) When it battles an opponent's "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" and both monsters are in Attack Position.

A: Battle damage is determined by considering different types of effects in the following order.

• 01: Inflicts double battle damage.
• 02: Battle damage is taken by both players.
• 03: Battle damage you take is also inflicted to your opponent / your opponent takes any battle damage you would take instead.
• 04: Battle damage is treated as effect damage.
• 05: The player gains LP instead of taking battle damage.
• 06: Battle damage becomes 0.
• 07: Battle damage is halved.
• 08: Battle damage is doubled.
• 09: Battle damage becomes X (X being a predetermined value).
• 10: You do not take battle damage if it is more or less than X.

Furthermore, "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon" is a "01" effect, "Double-Edged Sword" is a "02" effect, "Number C96: Dark Storm" and "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" are both "03" effects, and "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" is a "08" effect. Specifically, the damage in their scenarios is calculated as follows:

• (A) Your opponent takes battle damage equal to the ATK of "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" twice.
• (B) If the DEF of "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" is lower than the ATK of "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon", the controller of "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon" takes double battle damage twice. If the DEF of "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" is higher than the ATK of "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon", the controller of "Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon" takes damage equal to the difference in values twice.
• (C) The controller of "Number C96: Dark Storm" takes damage equal to the difference in ATK twice, while the controller of "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" takes damage equal to the difference in ATK once. (If the effect of "Number C96: Dark Storm" or "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" make the opponent take battle damage, the effect of the other monster is not applied to that damage.)
• (D) Both players take damage equal to the difference in ATK once. (If the effect of one "Ohime the Manifested Mikanko" makes the opponent take battle damage, the effect of the other is not applied to that damage.)
• (E) The controller of "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" takes damage equal to the difference in ATK twice. (Since "Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" does not inflict any damage to the opponent, the battle damage is not doubled.)

Furthermore, the following monsters with the effect "your opponent takes any battle damage you would have taken from battles involving this card instead" are also "03" effects.

• "Amazoness Swords Woman"
• "Daigusto Sphreez"
• "Speedroid Skull Marbles"
• "Number 92: Heart-eartH Dragon"

• Q: If "Daigusto Sphreez" (ATK 2000) and "Blackwing Armor Master" (ATK 2500) battle, which player takes battle damage?

A: Battle damage is determined by considering different types of effects in the following order.

• 01: Inflicts double battle damage.
• 02: Battle damage is taken by both players.
• 03: Battle damage you take is also inflicted to your opponent / your opponent takes any battle damage you would take instead.
• 04: Battle damage is treated as effect damage.
• 05: The player gains LP instead of taking battle damage.
• 06: Battle damage becomes 0.
• 07: Battle damage is halved.
• 08: Battle damage is doubled.
• 09: Battle damage becomes X (X being a predetermined value).
• 10: You do not take battle damage if it is more or less than X.

Furthermore, "Daigusto Sphreez" is a "03" effect, and "Blackwing Armor Master" is a "06" effect. As a result, neither player takes any battle damage. "Daigusto Sphreez" cannot be destroyed by battle due to its own effect. Also, the effect of "Blackwing Armor Master" that places a Wedge Counter on a monster can be activated at the end of the Damage Step.

Furthermore, the following monsters with the effect "you take no battle damage from attacks involving this card" are "06" effects.

• "Kikinagashi Fucho"
• "Bloom Diva the Melodious Choir"
• "Go! - D/D/D Divine Zero King Rage"
• "Superheavy Samurai Scarecrow"
• "D/D/D Supersight King Zero Maxwell"
• "Number 2: Ninja Shadow Mosquito"
• "Abyss Actor - Comic Relief"
• "Spell Striker"
• "Melffy Mommy"
• "Rocket Warrior"
• "Ni-Ni the Mirror Mikanko"
• "Sylvan Mikorange"
• "Ha-Re the Sword Mikanko"
