Q&A Rulings
- Q: My "Lilith, Lady of Lament" is face-up in my Monster Zone, and has an original ATK of 1000 due to its own effect. If "Book of Moon" is activated and "Lilith, Lady of Lament" is changed to face-down Defense Position, what will its ATK be?
- A: If a "Lilith, Lady of Lament" whose original ATK is 1000 due to its own effect is changed to face-down Defense Position by the effect of "Book of Moon", its effect no longer applies. Therefore, when "Lilith, Lady of Lament" is flipped face-up again, its ATK will be 2000.[1]
- Q: When I activate the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament", my opponent chains "Hand Destruction". As a result, if there are less than 3 Normal Trap Cards remaining in my Deck, what happens?
- A: In this scenario, if you do not have 3 Normal Trap Cards in your Deck when resolving the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament", the effect cannot be applied. (You do not reveal any Normal Trap Cards in your Deck.) Also, if you do not already have 3 Normal Trap Cards in your Deck, you cannot activate the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament".[2]
- Q: If I activate the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament", but my opponent chains "Call of the Haunted" and Special Summons "Dark Simorgh" from the GY, what happens?
- A: In this scenario, the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament" will resolve while the effect of your opponent's "Dark Simorgh" prevents you from Setting cards. Since you cannot Set cards, the effect does not apply. (You do not reveal any Normal Trap Cards in your Deck.) Also, while the effect of "Dark Simorgh" is applying, you cannot activate the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament".[3]
- Q: My "Lilith, Lady of Lament" is face-up in my Monster Zone, and has an original ATK of 1000 due to its own effect. If "Skill Drain" is activated and the effects of "Lilith, Lady of Lament" are negated, what happens to its ATK?
- A: If the effect of "Skill Drain" is applied to "Lilith, Lady of Lament" that has an original ATK of 1000 due to its own effect, its returns to its printed original ATK. Therefore, the original ATK of "Lilith, Lady of Lament" becomes 2000. (Even if the effect of "Skill Drain" stops applying later, its original ATK remains 2000.)[4]
- Q: If I activate the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament" that Sets a Normal Trap Card from my Deck, but chain "Mystical Space Typhoon" from my hand so that I have no vacant Spell & Trap Zones, how does the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament" resolve?
- A: If you have no vacant Spell & Trap Zones when resolving the effect of "Lilith, Lady of Lament", the effect disappears. (You do not reveal any Normal Trap Cards in your Deck.)[5]
