| − | A '''Ritual Summon''' ({{Ruby|儀|ぎ}}{{Ruby|式|しき}}{{Ruby|召|しょう}}{{Ruby|喚|かん}} ''Gishiki Shōkan'') is a method of [[Special Summon]]ing a [[Ritual Monster]] which normally uses the effect of a [[Ritual Spell Card]].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Ritual Summons usually require [[Tribute]]s (from your hand or side of the field) greater than or equal to the [[Level]] of the Ritual Monster that is being Summoned. These Tributes are performed as part of the Ritual Spell Card's [[card effect|effect]] [[resolution]], rather than as a [[cost]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |title=Individual Card Rulings [L-O] |publisher=UDE |at=Lich Lord, King of the Underworld |accessdate=12 December 2015 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090220023927/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |archivedate=20 February 2009}}</ref>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Some Ritual Spell Cards, including most Ritual Spell Cards that are capable of being used for different Ritual Monsters (such as "[[End of the World]]"), require the total [[Level]]s of the Tributed monsters to exactly equal the Level of the Ritual Monster.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | == Performing a Ritual Summon ==
| |
| − | A player can Ritual Summon a Ritual Monster by [[activate|activating]] a card or effect that performs a Ritual Summon (usually a Ritual Spell Card). When that effect resolves, the player must satisfy the requirements of the card or effect performing the Ritual Summon (usually [[Tribute|Tributing]] monsters from their hand and/or field). After that, the player Summons the Ritual Monster from the specified location (usually the [[hand]]) to an unoccupied [[Main Monster Zone]] in [[face-up]] [[Attack Position|Attack]] or [[Defense Position]].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | When a card or effect that Ritual Summons resolves, if the requirement cannot be met or the Ritual Monster cannot be Ritual Summoned, no Ritual Summon occurs, nor is any action taken for the Ritual Summon's requirement.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |title=Individual Card Rulings [L-O] |publisher=UDE |at=Mask of Restrict |accessdate=12 December 2015 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090220023927/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |archivedate=20 February 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |title=Individual Card Rulings [L-O] |publisher=UDE |at=Lightforce Sword |accessdate=12 December 2015 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090220023927/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=L&last=O |archivedate=20 February 2009}}</ref> For example, if a player cannot Special Summon when resolving a Ritual Spell Card that Tributes monsters, no monsters are Tributed.

| − | ===Tributing monsters for a Ritual Summon===
| |
| − | If the card or effect that Ritual Summons does not mandate an exact total Level (e.g. "''You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal 6 or more.''"), the player cannot Tribute additional monsters if they already met the minimum Level requirement.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=1408 |title=Absolute Powerforce Preview: Djinn Disserere of Rituals |author=Jerome McHale |date=3 February 2010 |publisher=Konami |accessdate=12 December 2015 |quote=When you Ritual Summon a monster, you need to Tribute monsters whose total Levels{{sic}} at least the Level of the monster you want to Summon, but you aren’t allowed to “overpay.” For example, if your Ritual monster{{sic}} is Level 7, you can Tribute a Level 5 and a Level 3 monster. You could not Tribute a third monster for that Ritual Summon.}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=3669 |title=How Ritual Summons Work |author=Scott Miller |date=23 February 2009 |publisher=Konami |accessdate=12 December 2015 |quote=Some Ritual Spells let you go over that number, others require the Levels of the Tributes to exactly match the Level of the Ritual Monster. No matter what, if you have already selected enough monsters to fulfil{{sic}} the requirement, you can’t Tribute any extra ones.}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=6852 |title=Secrets of Eternity: Netherlord of the Flies |author=Scott Miller |date=6 January 2015 |publisher=Konami |accessdate=12 December 2015 |quote=Remember, though, that you cannot overpay by Tributing more monsters than necessary to meet the “total Level 6 or more” requirement.}}</ref>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Monsters that do not have Levels, such as [[Xyz Monster]]s and [[Link Monster]]s, cannot be Tributed for a Ritual Summon.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | A player can activate a card or effect that Ritual Summons even if their [[Monster Zone]]s are full, but only if they Tribute one of their monsters on the field when that card or effect resolves (if all their Monster Zones are still occupied by that point).{{fact}}
| |
| − |
| |
| − | [[Face-down]] monsters can be Tributed for a Ritual Summon, unless the card text specifies otherwise (such as "[[Forbidden Arts of the Gishki]]").<ref name="Raven">{{cite web |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=P&last=R |title=Individual Card Rulings [P-R] |publisher=UDE |at=Ritual Raven |accessdate=12 December 2015 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090220140220/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=P&last=R |archivedate=20 February 2009}}</ref> If a face-down monster has an effect that allows it to be used as the entire monster requirement for the Ritual Summon, such as "[[Ritual Raven]]", that effect can be applied if it is Tributed for the Ritual Summon of an appropriate monster.<ref name="Raven"/> If the player can Tribute an opponent's face-down monster due to a card effect (such as "[[Soul Exchange]]"), it cannot be used for a Ritual Summon because its Level is unknown.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=S&last=T |title=Individual Card Rulings [S-T] |publisher=UDE |at=Soul Exchange |accessdate=12 December 2015 |archiveurl=http://web.archive.org/web/20090220024252/http://entertainment.upperdeck.com/yugioh/en/gameplay/faqs/cardfaqs/default.aspx?first=S&last=T |archivedate=20 February 2009 |quote=You can target a face-down monster, but you cannot Tribute it for a Ritual Summon or for “Metamorphosis” because you do not know its Level.}}</ref>

| − |
| |
| − | ===Unusual cases===
| |
| − | * There are some cards and effects that are not Ritual Spell Cards that can perform Ritual Summons; for example, the [[Trap Card]] "[[Urgent Ritual Art]]" and the [[Pendulum Effect]] of the [[Pendulum Monster]] "[[Zefrasaber, Swordmaster of the Nekroz]]" can perform Ritual Summons.
| |
| − | ** In fact, "Urgent Ritual Art" can perform a Ritual Summon outside of the [[Main Phase]].
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Some cards and effects can Ritual Summon monsters from locations other than the hand; for example, "[[Nekroz Cycle]]" and "[[Odd-Eyes Advent]]" can Ritual Summon a monster from the Graveyard.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Some monsters have effects that allow them count as the entire Tribute for a Ritual Summon, regardless of their Level and the required Level; for example, "[[Ritual Raven]]" and "[[Gishki Shadow]]" have this effect.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Some monsters have effects that allow them to be [[banish]]ed from the Graveyard instead of Tributing a monster for a Ritual Summon; for example, the [[Djinn of Rituals]] [[series]] of monsters all have this effect.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Some Ritual Spell Cards have requirements that do not involve monsters; for example, "[[Gishki Photomirror]]" requires the player to [[pay]] [[LP]].

| |
| − | ==Ritual Monster Summoning conditions==
| |

A pillar of fire rises from the altar, and explodes in the sky. After that, the Ritual Monster is Summoned, descending from the sky.
