Q&A Rulings
- Q: "Skill Drain" is face-up in my opponent's Spell & Trap Zone, and its effect that negates the effects of face-up monsters on the field is applying. In this situation, if a "Harpie Queen" on my field is destroyed by battle, can I activate the effect of "Alluring Mirror Split"?
- A: In this scenario, since the effect of "Harpie Queen" that treats its name as "Harpie Lady" is negated by "Skill Drain", you cannot activate the effect of "Alluring Mirror Split".[2]
- Q: When a "Cyber Harpie Lady" on my field is destroyed by battle, I activate the effect of "Alluring Mirror Split". In this case, can I Special Summon a "Harpie Lady" from my Deck?
- A: "Cyber Harpie Lady" is always treated as Harpie Lady, so the monster Special Summoned by the effect of "Alluring Mirror Split" must have a different name. (In this scenario, you cannot Special Summon "Harpie Lady", "Harpie Lady 1", etc.)[3]
