Q&A Rulings
- Q: During the Battle Phase, I activate the effect of "Galaxy Satellite Dragon" and target my "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon". If "Book of Moon" is chained, and "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" is changed to face-down Defense Position, how does the effect of "Galaxy Satellite Dragon" resolve?
- A: When resolving the effect of "Galaxy Satellite Dragon", if the targeted Xyz Monster is in face-down Defense Position, the part of the effect that halves any battle damage your opponent takes for the rest of the turn is still applied, but the part of the effect that changes the targeted monster's ATK is not applied.[2][3]
