Q&A Rulings
- Q: "Superheavy Samurai Ogre Shutendoji" and "Superheavy Samurai Scales" are face-up on my field, and my "Superheavy Samurai Ogre Shutendoji" has destroyed an opponent's monster by battle during the Battle Phase. In this situation, if I activate "Call of the Haunted" during this Battle Phase and Special Summon a "Superheavy Samurai Fist" from my Graveyard, can I then activate its effect that performs a Synchro Summon?
- A: As in this scenario, even if "Superheavy Samurai Fist" is Special Summoned during your Battle Phase after another "Superheavy Samurai" monster attacked and destroyed an opponent's monster by battle, you can activate the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" that performs a Synchro Summon.[1]
- Q: "Superheavy Samurai Fist", "Superheavy Samurai Blue Brawler", and "Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei" are face-up on my field. In this situation, my "Superheavy Samurai Big Benkei" attacks my opponent's "Lunalight Leo Dancer", and both monsters are destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard. During this Battle Phase, can I then activate the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" that performs a Synchro Summon?
- A: Even if your "Superheavy Samurai" monster battled an opponent's monster with the same ATK, and both were destroyed by battle, you can activate the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" that performs a Synchro Summon. (In this scenario, your Level 2 "Superheavy Samurai Fist" and Level 4 "Superheavy Samurai Blue Brawler" are present on your field, so you can Synchro Summon a Level 6 Synchro Monster after applying the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist".)[2]
- Q: I activate the effect of a "Superheavy Samurai Fist" in my Graveyard, targeting a face-up "Superheavy Samurai Warlord Susanowo" on my field. If my opponent chains the effect of "D.D. Crow" and banishes "Superheavy Samurai Fist" from the Graveyard, how does its effect resolve?
- A: In this scenario, if "Superheavy Samurai Fist" is no longer in your Graveyard when its effect resolves, the part of its effect that Special Summons it cannot be applied, but the targeted monster's Level is reduced by 1 normally. (In this case, "Superheavy Samurai Warlord Susanowo" becomes Level 9.)[3]
- Q: I activate the effect of a "Superheavy Samurai Fist" in my Graveyard, targeting a face-up "Superheavy Samurai Warlord Susanowo" on my field. If my opponent chains "Compulsory Evacuation Device" and returns "Superheavy Samurai Warlord Susanowo" to my Extra Deck, how does the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" resolve?
- A: In this scenario, if the targeted "Superheavy Samurai" Synchro Monster is no longer face-up on the field when the effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" resolves, it cannot reduce the targeted monster's Level by 1, and it is not Special Summoned from the Graveyard. However, even in this case, the part of the effect that prevents you from Special Summoning monsters other than "Superheavy Samurai" monsters for the rest of the turn is still applied.[4]
- Q: When my opponent Special Summons a "Superheavy Samurai Fist" from their Graveyard by its own effect, can I activate "Torrential Tribute"?
- A: The effect of "Superheavy Samurai Fist" that activates in the Graveyard will finish resolving by reducing the targeted monster's Level by 1 and Special Summoning "Superheavy Samurai Fist", so you can activate Torrential Tribute afterward.[5]
