Card Rulings:Soul Charge
OCG Rulings
- Special Summoning the targeted monsters and losing Life Points are considered to happen simultaneously.[1]
- This card cannot be activated during Main Phase 2.[1]
- If 2 or more monsters are targeted, then those monsters are considered to be Special Summoned simultaneously.[1]
- You cannot conduct your Battle Phase the turn you activate "Soul Charge". If you cannot conduct your Battle Phase, then the Battle Phase of that turn is not skipped by the effect of your opponent's "Artifact Ignition". Therefore, your next Battle Phase is skipped by the effect of your opponent's Artifact Ignition.[2]
- If "Soul Charge" is activated targeting 3 monsters in your Graveyard and the opponent activates "D.D. Crow" in a Chain targeting 1 of those monsters, then even if 1 of the 3 targeted monsters is banished by the effect of "D.D. Crow", the remaining 2 monsters are still Special Summoned. Furthermore, since you only Special Summoned 2 monsters, you lose 2000 Life Points for the "you lose 1000 Life Points for each monster Special Summoned by this effect." effect.[3]
- This card can be activated during the first turn of the Duel if you have 1 or more monsters that can be Special Summoned in your Graveyard.[4]
