- Q: When Link Summoning a "Code Talker" monster using the effect of "World Legacy Awakens", can I apply the effect of a "Micro Coder" in my hand and use it as a material?
- A: Even if you are performing a Link Summon using the effect of "World Legacy Awakens", you can apply the effect of a "Micro Coder" in your hand and use it as a material.[1]
- Q: "Prohibition" was activated by declaring "Micro Coder". In this situation, can I apply the effect of a "Micro Coder" in my hand and use it as a material?
- A: Since a monster declared by "Prohibition" cannot be used as material for a Special Summon, if "Micro Coder" was declared, you cannot apply the effect of one in your hand and use it as a material.[2]
- Q: "Bitrooper" is the only monster on my field. In this situation, when Link Summoning "Powercode Talker", can I apply the effects of both "Micro Coder" and "Code Radiator" in my hand and use them as materials?
- A: If you use a Cyberse-Type monster on your field as material to Link Summon a "Code Talker" monster, you can also apply the effects of both "Micro Coder" and "Code Radiator" in your hand and use them as materials. (In this scenario, you can Link Summon "Powercode Talker" using the "Bitrooper" on your field and the "Micro Coder" and "Code Radiator" in your hand.)[3]
- Q: I attempted to Link Summon a "Code Talker" by applying the effect of a "Micro Coder" in my hand, using it as material along with a Cyberse-Type monster on my field, but my opponent activated "Solemn Strike" and negated the Link Summon. During the same turn, can I still apply the effect of another "Micro Coder" in my hand and use it as a material?
- A: Even if the Link Summon using "Micro Coder" in your hand as a material is negated by "Solemn Strike", you cannot apply the effect of another "Micro Coder" in your hand that turn.[4]
- Q: If I activate the effect of "I:P Masquerena" and perform the Link Summon, can I use "I:P Masquerena" and a "Micro Coder" in my hand as materials to Link Summon "Decode Talker"?
- A: In this scenario, when performing a Link Summon using the effect of "I:P Masquerena", you can apply the effect of "Micro Coder" in your hand to Link Summon "Decode Talker".[5][6]
