Q&A Rulings
- Q: Can I target "House Dragonmaid" with "Dragonmaid Send-Off"?
- A: You can target "House Dragonmaid" with "Dragonmaid Send-Off". The part of the effect that Special Summons a "Dragonmaid" monster with a different name from your hand is applied normally, but since "House Dragonmaid" is a Fusion Monster, it returns to the Extra Deck instead of the hand. The part of the effect that prevents the Special Summoned monster from being destroyed by battle or card effects until the end of the next turn is applied normally.[2]
- Q: Can I target "Dragonmaid Nudyarl" with "Dragonmaid Send-Off", if it is unaffected by Spell effects due to the effect of "Forbidden Lance"?
- A: You can target "Dragonmaid" monster that is unaffected by Spell effects with "Dragonmaid Send-Off". The part of the effect that Special Summons a "Dragonmaid" monster with a different name from your hand is applied normally, but since the targeted monster ("Dragonmaid Nudyarl" in this case) is unaffected by Spell effects, it remains face-up in the Monster Zone. The part of the effect that prevents the Special Summoned monster from being destroyed by battle or card effects until the end of the next turn is applied normally.[3][4]
