Forum:Can Vanguard of the Dragon's Effect be used by my opponent?

What the question says^^ But to give a scenario Player A's Vanguard of the dragon changes control to Player B. Player A then uses Dark Hole to destroy all monsters on the field. There is a normal dragon in the graveyard. Is Player A or Player B the one that is able to use Vanguard of the Dragon's second effect to special summon a normal dragon from either graveyard? "When this card you control is sent to the Graveyard by your opponent's card effect, you can Special Summon 1 Dragon-Type Normal Monster from either player's Graveyard." Just want some clarification. --75.33.54.117 (talk) 06:31, September 17, 2010 (UTC)Anonymous Duelist

Nether player gets the effect.

"When this card you control is sent to the Graveyard by your opponent's card effect, you can Special Summon 1 Dragon-Type Normal Monster from either player's Graveyard."

Vanguard of the Dragon will be sent to the Graveyard of its owner (player A) after it is destroyed. But it was sent there from player B's side of the field, so the condition of Vanguard of the Dragon's effect to be sent from your field to your Graveyard is not met, thus the effect cannot be activated.

...It doesn't say your graveyard. it says the graveyard. I thought "the graveyard" was either graveyard. So why does the opponent not get the ability? Does the Jap version say your? --LordGeovanni- (Talk To Me) *Kupo* 12:18, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

If a monster is sent to the graveyard it always goes to the graveyard of the owner of the card.

So if an opponent creature swaps a masked dragon and you destroy it you get masked dragons effect because it is your card and when it is destroyed it goes to your graveyard. Kearowind (talk • contribs) 15:21, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
