Yes, any Fusion Monster with text saying "A Fusion Summon can only be conducted with the above Fusion Material Monsters" or "Must first be Special Summoned by Fusion Summon with the above Fusion Material Monsters" cannot be Special Summoned with Instant Fusion, even if they meet its requirements because of their first line of text below their listed Fusion Materials.

Photoshopped image

Thanks for keeping vigilant on the card image uploads. If File:InzektorSwordZektkaliber-ORCS-EN-UtR-1E.png is indeed photo manipulated, I can delete it and we have another .jpg version, which I can restore to use instead. What makes you say the image is Photoshopped? Aside from irregularities associated with scanning Ultimate Rares, it looks normal to me. -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:11, October 29, 2013 (UTC) The name is not only too yellow when compared to the more gold name that Ultra and Ultimate Rares have but there's no indentation for where the name is placed and you can see the comparison to the Ultra Rare version.

Thank you. (InnerRage2 (talk • contribs) 12:48, March 2, 2014 (UTC))

I can because that's just it. Because it is specifically written on two "Elemental HERO" cards, it should at least be related to the archetype. (InnerRage2 (talk • contribs) 20:46, March 6, 2014 (UTC))

You're speaking nonsense. By your logic, cards like "Feather Wind" and "Bubble Illusion" also shouldn't be related to the "Elemental HERO" archetype. Should I all of those? No. Also, your H argument doesn't hold up, because there are new archetypes that are specifically designed for the letters of the Latin alphabet. I think it would be better for this site if "Metamorphosis" is left as related to the Elemental HERO archetype, but not actually being in it. Thank you for your time, sir/madam.

RE:Sacred Beasts and Dark Armed Dragon

I didn't remove DAD; I agree with its "abusability." But Uria destroying a Set S/T card is the near equivalent of a "Night Beam". And even if Hamon destroys an opponent's monster by battle, it won't inflict effect damage. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 16:11, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

Why not? A Bolt from the Blue doesn't negate the monster's effects. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 18:53, November 13, 2014 (UTC)

RE:A Wild Monster Appears Rulings

Normal Summon a monster, your opponent uses "Trap Hole" (you now control no monsters). Normal Summon a Level 4 monster, use your only other monster (Level 4) to Xyz Summon "Diamond Dire Wolf", which destroys itself and an opponent's card (you now control no monsters). Etc. There is a difference between the wordings:

For the rest of this turn, you cannot Normal Summon/Set or Special Summon monsters, and your opponent takes no damage.

and

You cannot Normal Summon/Set or Special Summon monsters the turn you activate this card, and your opponent takes no damage. (like "Scapegoat")

Like I said, the judge forum program ruling for Sparrer explains this. "During this turn" or "the turn" means the whole turn, after and before you resolve that card/effect. "For the rest of this turn" means only after the card/effect resolves.--UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 18:35, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Opposite Player's Box or Not?

Then I do not understand. The English dub does NOT "mention", as you first said, that it applies to the opponent's Life Points. Instead, Joey/Marik says to look down, and although the scene didn't cut out the red arrows and shows Joey's box first, that doesn't mean that there wasn't a change in adaptions for this duel just because things such as the arrows weren't cut out. Joey/Marik says: "That small yellow box is your Life Point counter, but it also contains the key to your survival. When one player's Life Points reach zero, the other player's box opens, revealing a key that unlocks his shackles."

So if a player's yellow box is both his Life Point counter AND contains the SAME player's key, then the boxes' "rules" are different from the Japanese version. How can, if Joey's box is the one showing Yugi's Life Points, also have the key for himself instead of Yugi?Mistystar31 (talk • contribs) 01:55, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

Alright, fine. I realized myself I was wrong; in fact, I believe quite a while back I'm the one who, in the last episode of this Duel (#78), actually wrote in the error section that when Yugi and Joey each lost all their Life Points, their own boxes showed their own Life Points go to zero, instead of vice versa as Marik/Joey said in the first episode (#75) of the Duel.

I haven't watched this episode in a long time and just considered it as generic when watching it this time, regardless of the arrows. So I wasn't taking into account that when Joey/Marik talked about and showed that "small yellow box", saying it was "your Life Pointer counter", and the scene first showed Joey's box, that Joey's box would be "your", or Yami's, Life Point counter. Also, for the boxes having the "key to your survival" part, this had to do with me thinking each player's box showed their own Life Points, so that when either player lost, the winner's box would keep its amount, then open, and give him his shackle's key, instead of the winner's box showed the loser's Life Points went to 0 and then the winner's box would open and give him the key. But now I remember everything.Mistystar31 (talk • contribs) 05:37, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

Both boxes had a key as Joey was the one attempting to save Yugi and thought only one key would be necessary to save both Yugi and himself until it didn't work on Yugi's shackles. The dub episode 60 explains it better as Arkana says it directly. It's clear that this would apply to this episode and it did. Each box had a key that was intended to be claimed if the opponent had lost. Of course, you're right in that it should've been such that the box next to the player displays their own LPs and if they won, the box would open.--MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 12:32, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

I know both boxes had a key, one for each player to get if the other lost, and that Joey attempted to save Yugi by grabbing the key in the box at Yugi's feet. However, whether or not he thought that only one key would be necessary to save both of them, you are wrong in saying it didn't work on Yugi's shackles--he saved Yugi, and it didn't work on his own, even though Joey tried to free himself before Serenity dived in with his own key. This was most likely because, although not important to this topic, Marik had learned after one key in the Duel with Arkana worked for both of their feet's shackles that he needed to make the keys different for each player in this deadly Duel, even though both the handcuffs and keys looked the same for this Duel. And yes, when watching the dub episode 60, Arkana explains that the boxes showed their opponent's Life Points, and the boxes had light blue arrows pointing to the other duelist. But people can forget certain rules about key boxes from a time of 15 episodes, and dub episode 75 didn't explain it as good as Arkana did, with Joey just saying the boxes were the LP counters and had a key. But anyway, why do you say I was right in that the box next to the player should have shown their own LPs (and of course opened when he won, which is what happened and Joey did explain), since that was what I was trying to do in our small editing war in "difference of adaptions"?Mistystar31 (talk • contribs) 22:21, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

Logically, it makes more sense. Having the box directly next to the player be displaying their Life Points is how it is done in the real game as well. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 22:23, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

That is more logical, which is why, when I watched dub episode 75 yesterday, I thought of the boxes that way, instead of showing the opponent's LPs. But renewing my memory with watching episode 60, yeah it would be the other way, but Joey didn't explain it as well as Arkana to be this way, especially with his explanation quote I wrote above. But anyway, do you realize, in my statements above when I realized I was wrong, with the scenes showing Joey's box first and saying it was "your (Yami's) LP counter", that it makes sense now (along with Arkana's explanation), and remembered how it was the opposite duelist's counter? (Although they made a mistake in the final, with each one's box showing their own LPs as they dropped to 0.)Mistystar31 (talk • contribs) 22:49, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

"Trap Displacement" in Yu-Gi-Oh! episode 220

Hi MasterMarik,

"Trap Displacement" is present in episode 220 of the English Dub only (as the Japanese has no card artwork present); here's the proof image: DeckMistakes-Yugi-Episode220-3.png - it's all the way to the left of the image on the table (it slightly overlaps a Normal Monster Card).

Not sure if you saw my image or not, but if you did, could you better explain why you switched the card backing image?

Exchange of Spirt Errata

Both players having 15 cards in the graveyard is an activation requirement, but it doesn't have to be met at resolution. If Exchange is chain 1 and fiend comedian is chain 2, then the requirement is met at activation. The rulings page on the card still support this, and I didn't see anything in the most recent errata that explicitly ruled it out. Am I misinterpreting something? --Urahara451 (talk • contribs) 06:03, April 27, 2015 (UTC)

Yes but what you posted was already posted by someone else and reverted also for the same reason. Besides, your argument is flawed. BOTH players must have 15 cards in their Graveyard to activate Exchange of the Spirit in the first place.--MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 11:28, April 27, 2015 (UTC)

I suppose I just don't understand the reason it was reverted in the first place. I also have trouble seeing the flaw in my argument. As long as you have more cards in your deck than you opponent has in their grave fiend comedian can be used, and with the fifteen card minimum there is still a reasonable window (9-29 card swing depending on deck size, before factoring extra deck). It will end with either more cards in your grave, or no cards in your opponent's before Exchange resolves. --Urahara451 (talk • contribs) 12:37, April 27, 2015 (UTC)

It was errata'd because it was too powerful before as people could set it up such that you could win quickly with it on its own. You don't understand. Read Exchange of the Spirit's latest text: If both players have 15 or more cards in their Graveyards: Pay 1000 LP; each player swaps the cards in their Graveyard with the cards in their Deck, then shuffles their Deck. You can only activate 1 "Exchange of the Spirit" per Duel. Therefore, if both players do not have 15 or more cards in their Graveyard, you cannot activate Exchange of the Spirit AT ALL. Having more cards in the opponent's Graveyard doesn't mean you can activate it, not to mention it's not a good combo because you're risking everything on a coin toss. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 13:00, April 27, 2015 (UTC)

Exod Flame

"The Legendary Exodia Incarnate" may be unaffected by "Exod Flame", but "Exod Flame"'s effect of sending a "Forbidden One" monster or "Exodia" card will still be carried out. All what happens is that SL Exodia stays on the field. A card unaffected by card effects is not the same as a card which cannot be targeted, as such you can still use it. We on YGOPro test the cards by RAW (Right as written) as intended to make the engine as consistent as possible with the card effects. Also, it would be redunant, to copy/paste all the Card Tips of Compulsory Evacuation Device to the page, as such it is easier to just link to the page. Thanatos-Zero (talk • contribs) 18:28, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

Then what's the point in saying it's unaffected by other card effects when clearly it can be? It's a moot point. On top of tha tit doesn'[t make sense. Targeting is part of the effect and thus it should not work on SLE.--MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 18:40, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

Marik, you've been a little "off" with your ruling declarations nowadays. I strongly suggest you find a ruling to cite before you actually revert edits regarding card interactions. As I already stated for Card Tips:Treacherous Trap Hole, you can target monsters with card effects even if they would be unaffected. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 18:46, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

That's still BS though because that defeats the purpose of it being unaffected. Besides, UDE ruling shouldn't count anymore because UDE isn't with Yu-Gi-Oh anymore. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 18:49, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

As the disclaimers for each UDE ruling on this Wiki state, they are all valid unless there is a ruling issued by Konami that directly contradicts it. Don't let pride lead you further into irrationality. If you're correct, then cite a Konami ruling stating otherwise then. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 18:58, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

To add to UltimateKuriboh's statement.

SLE is and will still be unaffected by other card effects. The effects of the other cards still resolve, but will not be affected by it. However, cards which cause side effects, when a condition is met, like the destruction of the chosen card, won't be resolved when used on SLE.

Also, the sending of a "Forbidden One" monster or a "Exodia" card is a cost, which is still paid. Thanatos-Zero (talk • contribs) 19:06, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

Then afterwards, I could coalesce the pages into a single .pdf file, like File:Rulebook v9.1.pdf (resizing the page images as necessary). If you wanted the upload to be attributed to you, then I could re-upload the resulting .pdf to a separate site, where you could download it and then upload it to the Wiki. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 02:19, February 22, 2016 (UTC)

OK I'll do that then and will upload all the pages. There's pages before what I uploaded aside from the cover page though so I'll upload those first. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 02:27, February 22, 2016 (UTC)

Would you mind re-scanning the following pages? The Rarity Guide page, the Table of Contents page, and pages 2-4 & 7? I know that getting the images to be aligned correctly is difficult, but those are the only pages that are the "odd ones out". --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 19:13, February 22, 2016 (UTC)

Uploaded a new version of those pages (after the right-side up Ultimate Dueling Guide Cover). Hope they're better. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 19:41, February 22, 2016 (UTC)

You can download it here, using the download link in the upper-right corner. It displays a little oddly there, but it looks fine after you download it. Uploading it under the file name File:UltimateDuelingGuide.pdf would be appreciated.
If you feel like doing similar stuff in the future, can you think of any other YGO-related documents you might have? Tip Cards (in stuff like Duelist Packs), "Recommended cards"/"Strategy" pamphlets (for Structure Decks, which has yielded useful stuff like File:Missing the Timing EN-US.png), rulebooks (the Wiki is missing versions 1.0-4.0)... No rush if you do. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 03:32, February 25, 2016 (UTC)

Psychic Shockwave

Psychic Shockwave is a Jinzo Signature attack, and thus belongs in the signature move section. The card was first released as a TCG Exclusive, which is why it has the dub name of the attack from when Esper Roba Used it.

the message that appears on the bottom left corner when one first arrives at your profile is very hard to read and should either be removed or changed so that the text is easier to read. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 20:27, May 7, 2016 (UTC)

Unsourced Toon monster rulings reply

If it's not sourced, it shouldn't be on the official pages. However keep these rulings in mind if an official source is officially stated or posted (though this is sometimes unlikely). Just don't let it be on the official pages for now. Whoever those user(s) are, they need to provide a source first for something like this.Cardsknower (talk • contribs) 16:00, May 15, 2016 (UTC)

Well they haven't provided a source so I'm starting to believe they're making it up or are following the anime. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 16:05, May 15, 2016 (UTC)

Flip monsters

That matter has been put under discussion some time ago. The database does not list "Man-Eater Bug" as [Insect/Flip/Effect]. Check it. Whereas if you look at "Shaddoll Squamata", it does. Check by yourself. Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 17:58, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

Even so, it'd be confusing to leave it as is when other Flip monsters are already designated with the addition. Furthermore, Man-Eater hasn't been reprinted since 2012 and the Starter Deck that began the change was in 2014 but that doesn't mean it can't be added when it's one anyway. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 18:12, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

You're free to insert type2 = Flip and type3 = Effect on cards like "Shaddoll Squamata", but not on cards like "Man-Eater Bug". It's not clear yet how it should be handled, so let's keep it in congruence with the card image and the database. If you see other Flip monsters that shouldn't have type2 = Flip and type3 = Effect assigned to them, feel free to remove them. I myself added those to a monster or two. Incorrectly, that is.

For more info, read the discussions I provided on the edit summary of "Man-Eater Bug" and feel free to give your opinion.

I understand your point; That was my opinion at first too. But again, it's not clear yet. It's the same matter as "Remove(d) from play" and "Banish(ed)". If a card was never re-printed with "Banish(ed)" nor the database has that terminology, we are not going to change that card effect here on the Wikia from "Remove(d) from play" to "Banish(ed)". Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 18:20, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

If Konami weren't clear on printing it with that, then why do it at all? The change has a clear purpose, differentiate between them and monsters whose effects activate when they are Flip Summoned and do not contain "FLIP:" Notice that every card with "FLIP" that has been released now has it by default. Not having them all match creates inconsistencies. It'd be wasted effort to update all the cards with that and then go "wait, no, that's not right" as they'd have to do it all again. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 18:24, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

You are not understanding. I know every Flip monster released or printed on Series 9 has "[(...)/Flip/Effect]" on it. I know that. You could read the discussions I provided you, it would avoid this kind of complications. Read the one at UltimateKuriboh's page. Here.

We also have the latest errata for the card effects, even if they are from 2006 or something. Even if it means inconsistencies with "Target" and "Select", for instance. But we are not going to change the effect of "Two-Pronged Attack" to "Target 2 monsters you control and 1 monster your opponent controls; Destroy those targets.", for instance. We wait for an official change, even though it might be obvious. Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 18:32, June 2, 2016 (UTC)

OCG-TCG card image

The template has since been updated. All you need to do know is insert the card's name, and that's it. Example:

{{OCG-TCG card image
| name = Ra's Servant
}}

--UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 16:42, August 18, 2016 (UTC)

Furthermore, I don't understand why you have an aversion to uploading over pre-existing images. You know you can replace existing images by going to that image's page, clicking the drop-down arrow next to "Edit", and then selecting "Replace", right? --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 16:52, August 18, 2016 (UTC)

Yeah but that's really no different than uploading a new file because you still have to rename it. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 16:55, August 18, 2016 (UTC)

I don't follow you. You were uploading images that weren't correctly named (missing rarity, missing edition, etc.), when there was already a card image uploaded at the proper name. It takes less time to upload over a pre-existing image than it does to: upload at a new (incorrect) name, and then rename it to the correct name while simultaneously deleting the pre-existing image that was correctly named.

For niche situations, it's sometimes helpful to see a file's history, and deleting pre-existing images doesn't help that. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 18:34, August 18, 2016 (UTC)

You know, you can enter the {{OCG-TCG card image}} at the "Summary" field at the upload form, when uploading an entirely new file. It could spare you a lot of time. Becasita ^Pendulum (talk • contribs) 01:40, September 15, 2016 (UTC)

Negating activations

Why are you ignoring what LadyBlue said? "If a card that says "activate only 1 per turn/duel" has its activation negated, you can activate another that turn/duel." Prove that wrong, if you can. When you research for evidence regarding that, be sure to notice the difference between negating an activation versus negating an effect (as well as "activate vs. use"). A helpful hint here is "Shaddoll Fusion".
So, assuming what LadyBlue said is correct, that means that even when you negate the activation of "The Seal of Orichalcos" with something like "Magic Jammer", you could theoretically activate another copy of "The Seal of Orichalcos" during the same Duel. Oh wait. We don't want to have to deal with "The Seal of Orichalcos" again, do we? In that case, let's use "Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell" instead to prevent more copies of "The Seal of Orichalcos" from being activated during the same Duel.
So I'm going to wait until you find your answer, and if it turns out that you were wrong, please revert your edit. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 21:16, September 5, 2016 (UTC)

Card Rulings:The Seal of Orichalcos: "For effects that read "you can only ACTIVATE this card/effect once per turn/Duel" if the activation of the card or effect is negated, you can activate the card/effect again in the same turn/Duel. So if the activation of "The Seal of Orichalcos" is negated by a card's effect you can activate another "The Seal of Orichalcos" in that Duel."--Cyber Dragon (Talk) (Contributions) 21:27, September 5, 2016 (UTC)

Are you misunderstanding what was said here? You just said Not entirely true because I argued this with The Seal of Oreichalcos vs Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell and was told that another copy couldn't be activated during the duel at all. and that is not what is being said here. This is only a special circumstance because "Cursed Seal" also prevents future activations. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 16:32, November 12, 2016 (UTC)

What was said was that another copy could be activated even if it was negated and that was regarding effects that can only be used once per Duel. In fact, Becasita said this directly: Cards and effects that state "you can only use this card/effect once per turn/Duel" cannot be activated again in the same turn/Duel, even if negated, which is only true if it's not being negated by Cursed Seal. Otherwise, what you told me regarding the matter is wrong. --MasterMarik (talk • contribs) 16:36, November 12, 2016 (UTC)

There is a difference between "You can only activate this effect of X once per Duel" and "You can only use this effect of X once per Duel". If you activate a card's effect (that can only be "used" once per turn) but its activation is negated, you attempted to use that effect, and thus cannot attempt to activate it again that turn. If you activate a card's effect (that can only be "activated" once per turn) but its activation is negated, you can attempt to activate it again that turn since you never technically "activated" it. --UltimateKuriboh (talk • contribs) 16:42, November 12, 2016 (U

Sorry about that. Is the reason for using the dub names because more people are accustomed to it or is it to compare the two names? Dskid64 (talk • contribs) 18:45, November 12, 2016 (UTC)
