Normal Summon (
A Normal Summon can only be conducted once per turn, even if it was negated by a card like "Forced Back". A Normal Summon will take up your Normal Set for the turn, and vice-versa.
If the monster you want to Normal Summon from your hand is Level 5 or higher, you must Tribute another monster(s) you control first and then “Tribute Summon” the monster. Level 5 and 6 require one Tribute, while Level 7 and higher require two Tributes.
You cannot Normal Summon Special Summon Monsters. You also cannot Normal Summon monsters during your opponents turn, unless a card like "Ultimate Offering" is in play.
