Mentions in Other Rulings

• Prime Material Dragon: If "Royal Oppression's" effect is activated to negate the Special Summon of a monster, like "Cyber Dragon" or "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus", "Prime Material Dragon's" effect cannot be chained because the monster being Special Summoned is not considered to be "on the field" until its Summon is successful.

• Prime Material Dragon: If your opponent activates "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus'" effect and selects to destroy a monster, you can chain "Prime Material Dragon's" effect.

• Solemn Judgment: "Solemn Judgment" can negate the Special Summon of a monster that is Special Summoned through its own inherent Special Summon effect that does not start a Chain, like ... "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" ....

OCG Rulings

• "Test Tiger" can return "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" to the Extra Deck, and you will Special Summon another "Gladiator Beast" monster from your Main Deck.

• Returning "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" to the Deck to Special Summon "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" is considered "playing" ("using") "Gladiator Beast Bestiari". If "Prohibition" declares "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" and later "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" is Special Summoned by the effect of another "Gladiator Beast" monster, then you cannot return "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" to the Deck to Special Summon "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus".

• You can return a "Gladiator Beast" Fusion Monster like "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" to the Extra Deck to Special Summon "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" or "Gladiator Beast Heraklinos". However, if you have no "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" in your Extra Deck, you cannot return "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" to the Extra Deck and "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" to the Deck to Special Summon that same "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus".

• When Special Summoning a monster like "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" or "Elemental Hero Aqua Neos" from the Extra Deck, you can return a face-down monster "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" or "Gladiator Beast" monster or "Elemental Hero Neos" or "Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin" to the Deck. However, you must verify with the opponent that the face-down "Gladiator Beast Bestiari" is a proper Fusion Material Monster.

• The effects of "Thunder King Rai-Oh", "Black Horn of Heaven", "Solemn Judgment", and similar cards can only be activated when a monster Special Summons itself without starting a Chain, such as when a Special Summon monster Special Summons itself.
  • Example: The effect of "Thunder King Rai-Oh" can negate a Synchro Summon" and the Special Summon of "Gladiator Beast Gyzarus" from the Extra Deck.
