Q&A Rulings
- Q: When activating "Noble Arms - Clarent" from my hand, can I target and equip it to a "Ventdra, the Empowered Warrior" on my field?
- A: When activating "Noble Arms - Clarent", you can equip it to "Ventdra, the Empowered Warrior". Since "Ventdra, the Empowered Warrior" has an effect that allows it to attack directly, the effect of "Noble Arms - Clarent" that allows the equipped monster to attack directly cannot be activated.[2][3]
