Card Rulings:Widespread Ruin
Revision as of 13:15, 18 July 2011 by ATEMVEGETA (talk)
OCG Rulings
- If a card like "Mirror Force" is activated in response to an attack, then "Negate Attack" can still be activated in chain. However, note that "Negate Attack" will resolve first, so cards like "Enchanted Javelin" or "Magical Arm Shield" will resolve without effect because the monster is no longer attacking. Card like "Mirror Force" or "Widespread Ruin" which have the text, "Activate only when your opponent declares an attack." only have the attack declaration as activation conditions, so their effects will still be applied even if the attack is negated. If "Kunai with Chain" is activated and then a chained card negates the attack, then "Kunai with Chain" will still give +500 ATK, but the attacking monster will not be changed to Defense Position.[1]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[2] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

Mentions in Other Rulings
- Elemental HERO Wildheart: If you attack with "Elemental Hero Wildheart" [sic] and the opponent activates "Widespread Ruin", if "Elemental Hero Wildheart" [sic] is your monster with the highest ATK, no monster will be destroyed by the effect of "Widespread Ruin"...
- Total Defense Shogun: "Widespread Ruin"...cannot destroy "Total Defense Shogun" if he attacks while in Defense Position, and his attack resolves as normal.
