OCG Rulings

  • The effect of "Ameba" is a Trigger Effect that activates on the field. (The effect does not target. It always activates if control of "Ameba" shifts from your Monster Zone to your opponent's Monster Zone. It also activates during the Damage Step.)[1]
  • The damage is inflicted to the player who gained control of "Ameba", not the player who controlled it before control shifted.[1]

Mentions in Other Rulings

  • Possessed Dark Soul: If the opponent has more Level 3 or lower monsters on the field than you have empty Monster Card Zones after you Tribute this card (the Zone it occupied is now empty), you choose which ones to gain control of and the rest are destroyed. If you choose to destroy "Griggle" or "Ameba" in this manner, their effects do not activate since they never came to your side of the field.
  • Remove Brainwashing: When "Remove Brainwashing" is already active on the field and a switching effect is activated, or "Remove Brainwashing" is chained to a switching effect and is thus active before the switching effect resolves, control switches due to the effect but then switches back to the original owner because of "Remove Brainwashing". So for "Creature Swap", control is changed but then control goes back to the original owners. This means that if you give control of "Griggle" or "Ameba" to your opponent, their effect IS activated even though "Griggle"/"Ameba" then returns to the original owner's control afterwards.
