Forum:What all can Goblin Marauding Squad stop?

According to the rulings, it stops card effects from the opponent during Attack Declaration, but not during the actual battle step or damage step. From what I read of the "breakdown of the battle phase" page, this means cards that directly activate in response to an attack (like Dimensional Prison or Mirror Force) will be stopped, but what else? What other popular battle phase cards do people use that this card can stop? Vorpal Storm Pony (talk • contribs) 02:05, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

This is not exactly a ruling question, you know. If you want a list of what this card can be used against, ask in General Discussion! MadRest 02:20, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

Technically, it is, because it deals with a specific ruling for Goblin Marauding Squad. I'm asking what cards it can stop, in accordance to the rulings about when its effect activates. Vorpal Storm Pony (talk • contribs) 02:22, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

Like Vorpal said, he wanna know which part of "Battle Step" that this card is activating, it is in Ruling Queries. --iFredCat 02:25, January 17, 2013 (UTC)

Kinda; I know when GMS activates (during Attack Calculation), but because the rulings state that it ONLY affects cards that activate or apply during that time, that makes it difficult to determine which cards it CAN stop; the "breakdown of the battle phase" page states that cards that directly respond to the attack, like Mirror Force, would likely be stopped, but what else falls under that category?

Cards that activate during Attack Declaration ("Sakuretsu Armor", "Mirror Force") and cards that have no restrictions on when it can be activated ("Mystical Space Typhoon", "Compulsory Evacuation Device"). -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 03:02, January 17, 2013 (UTC)
