• Increasing the equipped monster's Level is treated as the effect of an Equip Spell card.

• The effect to equip an "Inzektor" monster from the hand or Graveyard does not target.

• If multiple copies of this card are equipped, the effects of each of them are applied.

• The effect to Special Summon an "Inzektor" monster from the Deck cannot be activated during the Damage Step.

• The effect to Special Summon an "Inzektor" monster from the Deck can be activated even if the equipped card is sent to the Graveyard as a cost to activate an effect.

• If "Inzektor Dragonfly" is equipped with 2 Equip Cards, and they are both destroyed simultaneously by the effect of "Heavy Storm", the effect of "Inzektor Dragonfly" only activates once, and only 1 monster can be Special Summoned from the Deck.

• You can activate the "Once per turn: You can equip 1 "Inzektor" monster from your hand or Graveyard to this card." effect of "Inzektor Dragonfly" while "Necrovalley" is active. At that time, if there is an "Inzektor" monster in both the hand and the Graveyard, then you must equip one from the hand. In addition, if the only "Inzektor" monsters are in the Graveyard, the effect disappears.
  • Furthermore, if during the effect's resolution the only "Inzektor" monsters are in the Graveyard, if the opponent asks to confirm your hand, you must reveal it.

• If "Inzektor Dragonfly" has equipped itself with "Inzektor Hornet", and "Fiendish Chain" is activated, the effect to equip itself with "Inzektor" monsters is negated, and "Inzektor Hornet" can no longer be treated as an Equip Spell Card. Therefore, "Inzektor Hornet" is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard.

• If "Inzektor Dragonfly" has equipped itself with "Inzektor Hornet", then that "Inzektor Hornet" activated its effect and "Enemy Controller" was Chained using its effect to switch control of "Inzektor Dragonfly" to the opponent, at the time the effect of "Inzektor Dragonfly" should be activated, its controller has already changed, and it is no longer considered to be a case in which "an Equip Card(s) is sent to your Graveyard". Therefore, the effect of "Inzektor Dragonfly" cannot be activated in this case.

• Even if "Inzektor Dragonfly" becomes unaffected by other Spell and Trap Cards due to the effect of "Forbidden Lance", the effect can be activated and the "Inzektor" monster will be equipped. However, if the "Inzektor Dragonfly" that was affected by "Forbidden Lance" equips itself with "Inzektor Hornet", it is unaffected by the effect that increases the level by 3 and the ATK/DEF of the equipped monster by the ATK/DEF of "Inzektor Hornet". Furthermore, since the effect of "Inzektor Hornet" that destroys 1 card on the field is not an effect that affects "Inzektor Dragonfly", this effect can be activated by sending the equipped "Inzektor Hornet" from the field to the Graveyard.
