Card Rulings:Volcanic Scattershot
OCG Rulings
- After this card is sent to the Graveyard by the effect of a "Blaze Accelerator" card, if the effect that destroys all monsters your opponent controls is activated, 2 "Volcanic Scattershot" are sent from your hand and/or Deck to the Graveyard as a cost.[1]
- The "When this card is sent to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent." effect is activated even if this card is sent to the Graveyard as a cost.
- Example: If this card is sent to the Graveyard by the effect of "Blaze Accelerator" or "Tri-Blaze Accelerator", the "When this card is sent to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent." effect is activated, and the "destroy all monsters your opponent controls." effect can be activated in a chain by sending 2 "Volcanic Scattershot" from your hand and/or Deck to the Graveyard as a cost. After the chain resolves, the "When this card is sent to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent." effect of the 2 "Volcanic Scattershot" that were sent from the Deck to the Graveyard are activated in a chain.[2]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[3] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

If this card is sent to the Graveyard for the effect of a "Blaze Accelerator" card, its effect to inflict 500 damage to your opponent does not activate.[Out of Date 1]
- The effect "inflict 500 damage to your opponent." of other "Volcanic Scattershot" cards sent to the Graveyard as a cost to activate the effect of this card will activate.
Their effects will go on a new Chain after the resolution of "Blaze Accelerator" or "Tri-Blaze Accelerator".[Note 1]
- You can send 1 "Volcanic Scattershot" from your hand and 1 from your Deck, or 2 from either your hand or Deck to the Graveyard to pay the cost of this card's effect.
Notes
- ↑ Actually, their effects will go on a new Chain after the resolution of the effect of the first "Volcanic Scattershot".
Out of Date
- ↑ This card's latest TCG errata makes this ruling invalid.
