Card Rulings:Tuningware
OCG Rulings
- The "This card can be treated as a Level 2 monster when used for a Synchro Summon." effect is not an Ignition, Trigger, Quick or Continuous Effect. (Applying this effect does not start a Chain Link.)[1]
- The "If this card is sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon: Draw 1 card." effect is a Trigger Effect that is activated from the Graveyard. (It is a mandatory effect.)[1]
- If the Synchro Summon of the monster that used this card as a Synchro Material is negated by "Solemn Judgment", the "If this card is sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon: Draw 1 card." effect cannot be activated.[1]
- If "Tuningware's" Level is changed by "Synchro Boost" etc, then when you use "Tuningware" as a Synchro Material Monster, you can still use it as a Level 2 monster, regardless of its current Level.[2]
- If "Skill Drain" is active, you cannot use the effect of "Tuningware" to treat it as a Level 2 monster for a Synchro Summon.[3]
- If you use a face-up "Eccentric Boy" and a "Tuningware" in your hand as Synchro Material Monsters, then you cannot apply the effect of "Tuningware" to treat it as a Level 2 monster. Thus, you can only Synchro Summon a Level 4 Synchro Monster, since you are using a face-up "Eccentric Boy" (Level 3) and a "Tuningware" in your hand (Level 1).[4]
- If you use a face-up "Eccentric Boy" and a "Tuningware" in your hand as Synchro Material Monsters, then you can activate the effect of "Tuningware" to draw 1 card when the Synchro Monster is Synchro Summoned.[4]
