Q&A Rulings

• Q: "Timaeus the Knight of Destiny" is face-up in my opponent's Monster Zone. In this situation, I Xyz Summoned "Outer Azathot" and applied the effect that prevents my opponent's monster effects from activating that turn. During this turn, if my "Outer Entity Azathot" attacks my opponent's "Timaeus the Knight of Destiny", can the effect of "Timaeus the Knight of Destiny" be activated during damage calculation?

A: In this scenario, since the effect of "Outer Entity Azathot" prevents your opponent from activating monster effects, the effect of "Timaeus the Knight of Destiny" cannot be activated.
