OCG Rulings

• This card targets 1 face-up "Junk Warrior" you control.

• This card can be activated at any time before the end of the Battle Phase. (However, it cannot be activated during the Damage Step. Also, it cannot be activated during Main Phase 2 or the End Phase.)

• A "Junk Warrior" that was already affected by "Scrap Fist" cannot be targeted by a second copy of "Scrap Fist".

• None of the "●" effects start a Chain Link. Also, none of the "●" effects target.

• If a "Junk Warrior" affected by "Scrap Fist" destroys an opponent's monster by battle, since that monster is sent to the Graveyard at the end of the Damage Step, the "Destroy the opponent's monster that battled it at the end of the Damage Step." is not applied.

• Suppose a "Junk Warrior" affected by "Scrap Fist" battles an opponent's monster affected by "Forbidden Lance".
  • These effects are applied:
    • "Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step."
    • "If it attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent."
    • "Double any battle damage your opponent takes."
    • "It cannot be destroyed by battle."
  • This effect is not applied:
    • "Destroy the opponent's monster that battled it at the end of the Damage Step."

• Suppose a "Junk Warrior" affected by "Scrap Fist" is targeted with "Forbidden Lance" or a "Forbidden Lance" is activated in a chain to "Scrap Fist", and then "Junk Warrior" battles an opponent's monster.
  • These effects are applied:
    • "Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step."
    • "Double any battle damage your opponent takes."
    • "Destroy the opponent's monster that battled it at the end of the Damage Step."
  • These effects are not applied:
    • "If it attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent."
    • "It cannot be destroyed by battle."

• This card is treated as a "Scrap" card. If a "Scrap Beast" your opponent controls that you own is destroyed by the effect of "Scrap Fist", since the effect of "Scrap Beast" is activated from your Graveyard, you can activate its effects. If a "Scrap Beast" your opponent controls that your opponent owns is destroyed by the effect of "Scrap Fist", since the effect of "Scrap Beast" is activated from your opponent's Graveyard and the "Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step." effect of "Scrap Fist" is applied, your opponent cannot activate the effect of "Scrap Beast".

• 2 copies of "Scrap Fist" can be activated in a chain targeting the same "Junk Warrior". (The "Destroy the opponent's monster that battled it at the end of the Damage Step." effect is applied twice. When resolving the effect of the first "Scrap Fist", if the opponent's monster is not destroyed, the effect of the second "Scrap Fist" will try to destroy the opponent's monster.)

• If your opponent takes control of a "Junk Warrior" affected by the effect of "Scrap Fist", and it attacks a monster you control, since it is not battling an opponent's monster, none of the "●" effects are applied.

• When resolving "Scrap Fist", even if your opponent takes control of "Junk Warrior", the effect is applied normally. (If "Owner's Seal" is activated and the control returns to you, and it attacks, all of the "●" effects are applied normally.)

• If a "Junk Warrior" affected by the effect of "Scrap Fist" is flipped face-down, the effect of "Scrap Fist" is no longer applied.

• When resolving "Scrap Fist", even if "Junk Warrior" is in face-down Defense Position, the effect is applied normally. (If it is changed to face-up Attack Position, and it attacks, all of the "●" effects are applied normally.)
