TCG Rulings
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Armed Sea Hunter: The effect of “Armed Sea Hunter” to negate effects is continuously applied. If it destroys a monster like “Treeborn Frog,” the effect of “Treeborn Frog” that activates in the Graveyard will be negated.
OCG Rulings
- If "Dark Ruler Ha Des" is on the field when a monster that has an effect that activates from the Graveyard like "Witch of the Black Forest", "Cockroach Knight", "Treeborn Frog" or "Sinister Serpent" is destroyed by a Fiend-Type monster, then their effects will be negated. Also, even if "Dark Ruler Ha Des" is destroyed, the effect of cards like "Sinister Serpent" will remain negated.[1]
- When a monster's effects are negated by "Armed Sea Hunter", its effects remain negated even after damage calculation. When "Armed Sea Hunter" destroys "Treeborn Frog" by battle, the effect of "Treeborn Frog" will be negated and it cannot Special Summon itself during the Standby Phase.[2]
- If you have multiple copies of a monster like "Treeborn Frog", "The Immortal Bushi" or "Totem Dragon" in your Graveyard during your Standby Phase, then after you Special Summon one copy of "Treeborn Frog", you control a monster, so you cannot Special Summon a second copy of "Treeborn Frog". Therefore, you can only Special Summon one monster like "Treeborn Frog", "The Immortal Bushi" or "Totem Dragon".[3]
- While "Necrovalley" is on the field you cannot banish cards from the Graveyard. Therefore, "Debunk" cannot be activated when "Mystic Tomato" or "Treeborn Frog" activates its effect.[4]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[5] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise. References: [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] |
- If you Special Summon "Treeborn Frog" during your Standby Phase, then it's sent to the Graveyard during that same Standby Phase (like if it's Tributed for "Enemy Controller"), you can Special Summon "Treeborn Frog" again that same Standby Phase.
- If you start your Standby Phase with "Messenger of Peace" face-up on the field, you can choose not to pay the maintenance cost so it is destroyed, then Special Summon "Treeborn Frog".
- If you have 2 or more "Treeborn Frogs" in your Graveyard, you can activate and resolve the effect of 1, but then you cannot activate and resolve the effect of the 2nd one because you now have a face-up "Treeborn Frog" on the field.
- If an effect is chained to "Treeborn Frog" that puts a Spell or Trap Card on your side of field, then "Treeborn Frog's" effect will not resolve. Example: The opponent controls your "Embodiment of Apophis" and activates "Remove Brainwashing".
- If "King Tiger Wanghu" is on the field when "Treeborn Frog" is Special Summoned, "Treeborn Frog" will be destroyed, but can be Special Summoned again with its effect during the same Standby Phase. Doing so without purpose is considered stalling and is a violation of Tournament Policy.
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Light and Darkness Dragon: When “Light and Darkness Dragon” negates the activation of a Spell, Trap, or effect of an Effect Monster that can only be activated once per turn (“Blowback Dragon”, etc.), the Spell, Trap, or effect of the Effect Monster cannot be activated again because the Spell, Trap, or effect of the Effect Monster is treated as having been activated during that turn. If the effect of the Effect Monster can be activated multiple times during the same turn (“Treeborn Frog”, etc.), the effect of the Effect Monster can be activated again.
- Revived King Ha Des: If a Zombie-Type monster you control destroys "Treeborn Frog" or "Sinister Serpent", the effect of "Treeborn Frog" or "Sinister Serpent" is negated even if "Revived King Ha Des" is later removed from the field.
Out of Date
- "Necrovalley" will not negate the effect of "Treeborn Frog".[Notes 1]
- If the effect of "Treeborn Frog" is negated, you can activate its effect again during the same Standby Phase and Special Summon it.[Notes 2]
Notes
- ↑ The latest print of "Necrovalley" has Problem-Solving Card Text which states that it even negates the effects of cards that move themselves from the Graveyard to other locations, so this ruling is invalid.
- ↑ The latest print of "Treeborn Frog" has Problem-Solving Card Text which states that its effect can only be activated once per turn, so this ruling is invalid.
