Card Rulings:Onikuji
OCG Rulings
- The activation of only the card "Onikuji" can be done at any time, except during the Damage Step.[1]
- The effect "Once per turn, during your Standby Phase: Your opponent declares 1 card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap). Excavate the top card of your Deck, then if it is that type of card, your opponent draws 1 card. Otherwise, discard 1 random card from their hand. Place the excavated card on the bottom of your Deck" makes a Chain Link. (This effect always activates once per Standby Phase.)[1]
- If you activate the card "Onikuji" during your Standby Phase, you can activate its effect in the same Chain Link.[1]
- The application of "Your opponent declares 1 card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap)" occurs when "Onikuji" is resolving.[1]
- The application of "your opponent draws 1 card" and "discard 1 random card from their hand" are treated as occurring at the same time as the application of "Place the excavated card on the bottom of your Deck".[1]
