OCG Rulings

• If the effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" does not destroy the battling monster - for example, the monster is equipped with "Heavy Mech Support Platform" or "Spirit of the Six Samurai", and the Equip Card is destroyed instead - then afterwards, you still perform damage calculation.

• The effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" activates at the beginning of the Damage Step, before monsters are flipped face-up.
  • If "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" attacks a face-down monster, then at the beginning of the Damage Step you cannot confirm the face-down monster's Attribute, so the effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" does not activate.
  • If a face-down "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" is attacked by a LIGHT monster, then "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" is face-down when its effect would activate, so its effect to destroy the opponent's monster cannot be activated.

• If the opponent's monster is face-down when the effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" would activate, then the opponent's monster cannot be destroyed by the effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer".

• If "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" attacks a face-up "D.D. Warrior Lady", then "D.D. Warrior Lady" is destroyed by the effect of "Ally of Justice Core Destroyer" without performing damage calculation. Thus, the effect of "D.D. Warrior Lady" which activates after damage calculation cannot be activated.
