Q&A Rulings
- Q: I activate the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords" that adds an "Elementsaber" monster from my Deck to my hand, then skips the Battle Phase of my next turn. If my opponent chains "Mystical Space Typhoon" and destroys "Palace of the Elemental Lords", what happens?
- A: When resolving the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords", if "Palace of the Elemental Lords" itself has been destroyed, the effect is not applied. (You do not add an "Elementsaber" monster from your Deck to your hand, nor do you skip the Battle Phase of your next turn.)[1]
- Q: I activated and resolved the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords" that adds an "Elementsaber" monster from my Deck to my hand, then skips the Battle Phase of my next turn. Afterward, if my opponent activates "Mystical Space Typhoon" and destroys "Palace of the Elemental Lords", will the part of the effect that skips the Battle Phase of my next turn still apply?
- A: If the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords" has already resolved, even if it is destroyed by "Mystical Space Typhoon", you must still skip the Battle Phase of your next turn.[2]
- Q: "Palace of the Elemental Lords" is face-up in my Field Zone. In this situation, when activating the effect of "Elementsaber Lapauila Mana" that Special Summons it from my hand, can I apply the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords" that allows me to send cards from my Deck to the GY instead of from my hand when activating an "Elementsaber" monster's effect?
- A: The effect of "Elementsaber Lapauila Mana" that Special Summons it is activated by sending 2 other monsters from your hand to the GY. If you send a monsters from your hand to the GY, you can send monsters other than "Elementsaber" monsters, but if you apply the effect of "Palace of the Elemental Lords", you send "Elementsaber" monsters from your Deck to the GY instead. In that case, you can either send 2 "Elementsaber" monsters from your Deck to the GY, or you can send 1 from your Deck and any other monster from your hand to the GY.[3]
