Extra Link
An Extra Link (Japanese:
A player can perform an Extra Link so long as the following conditions are met:
- The player controls a Link Monster in an Extra Monster Zone while the other Extra Monster Zone is unoccupied.
- Three Link Monsters occupy all three central Main Monster Zones on one side of the field. (The player performing the Extra Link can use three opponent's monsters as these three.)
- All of the above Link Monsters must be co-linked with the others that are orthogonally adjacent to it.
In that case, the player who controls the Link Monster in the Extra Monster Zone can Link Summon a second Link Monster to the unoccupied Extra Monster Zone, as long as it would be co-linked with the Link Monster in the Extra Link orthogonally adjacent to it. Performing the Link Summon must not disturb the Extra Link by using the Link Monsters involved as Link Materials.
The final result is a U-shaped chain of five Link Monsters, each co-linked to the others that are orthogonally adjacent to it.
