Forum:Skill Drain VS Malefic

Does Skill Drain effect can negate the Malefic monster effect " There can only be 1 face-up "Malefic" monster on the field. Other monsters you control cannot declare an attack. If there is no face-up Field Spell Card on the field, destroy this card "? Since this effect active when the Malefic monster is on the field, so I figure it can.. is it?

That already answer in other forum, please be sure to search before ask this. It do negate the face-up Malefic Monster on the field, but NOT negate the effect IN THE HAND. Can "Skill Drain" negate "Honest" or "Blackwing - Kalut"? --FredCat 16:41, February 18, 2011 (UTC)

Skill Drain vs no Field Spell Card

If there isn´t a field spell card face up. And theres is a skilldrain face up on the field.

Is it posible to special summon Malefic Stardust Dragon and remain on the field?

Yes. That effect only registers on the field, and will be negated. Only the property of "Malefic" monsters that does not allow another to be Summoned will remain. Designless Square (talk • contribs) 18:06, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

Continued with Designless' comment, "Malefic" monster with an effect that prevent the Special Summon is a continuous effect, which is also activating in the hand, like the situation to "Harpie Lady" name posting effect. --iFredCat 12:32, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

Fred, Square made that comment in March of last year. If you check the history, you can see that FZ just undid an edit by a vandal. Although I feel like that kind of edit keeps happening to this question, probably because people don't understand the Condition Effect of Malefics. --Dark Ace SP (Talk) 21:02, January 4, 2013 (UTC)
