Q&A Rulings
- Q: I activate the second effect of "Revival Swarm" in my GY, targeting a "Battlewasp - Ballista the Armageddon" on my field. If my opponent chains "Book of Moon" and changes "Battlewasp - Ballista the Armageddon" to face-down Defense Position, how does the effect of "Revival Swarm" resolve?
- A: Even if the targeted Insect monster is in face-down Defense Position when the second effect of "Revival Swarm" resolves, the effect is applied normally.[2][3]
