Card Rulings:Atomic Firefly
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[1] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise. References: [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] |
- The card text is very correct on the card mechanics; "Atomic Firefly" has to be face-up BEFORE the attack is declared.
- "Atomic Firefly's" effect activates in the Graveyard when "Atomic Firefly" is sent to the Graveyard at the end of the attack, so "Skill Drain" will not negate its effect.
- You can use "Barrel Behind the Door" against "Atomic Firefly's" effect.
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Barrel Behind the Door: You can activate "Barrel Behind the Door" against Trigger Effects like..."Atomic Firefly"...
- Fox Fire: In order to activate its effect, "Fox Fire" must be face-up when the attack that destroyed it was declared (like "Atomic Firefly"). If a face-down "Fox Fire" is attacked, its effect is not applied even though it is face-up when destroyed.
- Giant Kozaky: Like "Atomic Firefly", "Fox Fire", and "Poison Draw Frog", if a face-down "Giant Kozaky" is attacked and destroyed, its effect is not applied. However, if a face-down "Giant Kozaky" is attacked, and is not destroyed by the attack, if "Kozaky" is not face-up on the field, then "Giant Kozaky" is destroyed by its own effect after damage calculation, and damage is inflicted by its effect.
