The following rulings apply to all "Barrier Statue" monsters.
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been deemed unofficial by Konami.[1] They were previously considered official, but may or may not necessarily hold true nowadays. |
- These rulings apply for all 6 "Barrier Statue" monsters.[2]
- Barrier Statues will even prevent monsters from being Special Summoned face-down if they have the “barred” Attribute (an Attribute that the Barrier Statue is preventing from being Special Summoned).[2]
- Effects like “Giant Rat” and “Mystic Tomato” cannot be used while a Barrier Statue is in play if they would Special Summon a monster with a barred Attribute.[2]
- You can activate “Reasoning” while a Barrier Statue is in play. But you cannot Special Summon the barred monster Attribute. If you pick up a monster with that Attribute, it cannot be Special Summoned and is sent to the Graveyard. (And the effect of “Reasoning” ends.)[2]
- You cannot activate “The Shallow Grave” while a Barrier Statue is in play if the only monsters in the opponent’s Graveyard are barred monsters.[2]
- You cannot activate
“Future Fusion”[Notes 1] or the effect of “Cyber-Stein” while a Barrier Statue is in play if the only Fusion Monsters in your Extra Deck have barred Attributes.[2]
- Effects that Special Summon, like “Jam Breeding Machine”, will activate while a Barrier Statue is in play, but if they would Special Summon a monster with a barred Attribute, no monster will be Special Summoned.[2]
- You cannot activate “Magical Hats” while a Barrier Statue is in play.[2]
- You cannot activate “Overload Fusion” while a Barrier Statue is in play (unless it is “Barrier Statue of the Abyss”).[2]
- Note that effects like “DNA Transplant” change monster Attributes only after they are on the field. So it has no impact on what monsters can be Special Summoned while a Barrier Statue is in play.[2]
Notes
- ↑ The latest print of "Future Fusion" has Problem-Solving Card Text that indicates that it has no effect that activates when the card is activated and no activation requirements, so the card can activated regardless of the player's ability to Special Summon. This difference is due to a major change in the functionality of "Future Fusion".
