Q&A Rulings
- Q: If "Dark Contract with the Swamp King" or "Dark Contract with the Valkyrie" are set by the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga", can they be activated during the same turn?
- A: If a "Dark Contract" Trap Card like "Dark Contract with the Valkyrie" is set from the Graveyard by the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga", it cannot be activated during the same turn in which it is set. If a "Dark Contract" Spell Card like "Dark Contract with the Swamp King" is set from the Graveyard by the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga", it can be activated during the same turn in which it is set. (However, since the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" that prevents the effects of cards on the field from being activated is applied during the turn in which it is Xyz Summoned, they cannot be activated during that turn.)[1]
- Q: The effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" that prevents effects on the field from being activated has been applied this turn. In this case, if the opponent activates the effect of "Effect Veiler", negating the effects of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga", is the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" no longer applied?
- A: In that case, since the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" has already been applied, even if the effects of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" are negated that turn, the effect does not stop applying. (Furthermore, the same happens if the effect of Effect Veiler is activated at the time D/D/D Twin Dawn King Kali Yuga is successfully Xyz Summoned.)[2]
- Q: The effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" that prevents the effects of cards on the field from being activated has been applied this turn. In this case, are monsters that are Summoned afterwards also unable to activate their effects and have their effects negated?
- A: Providing "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" has been Xyz Summoned that turn, even if monsters are Summoned afterwards, their effects that activate on the field cannot be activated and their effects are negated.[3]
- Q: The effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" that prevents the effects of cards from being activated has been applied this turn. In this case, if "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is destroyed in battle or similar so that it is no longer on the field, does its effect stop applying?
- A: In the proposed scenario, since the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" has already been applied, even if "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is destroyed in battle or similar its effect does not stop applying.[4]
- Q: If "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is Xyz Summoned while "Skill Drain" is active, is the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" applied?
- A: In that case, since the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is negated, the effects of cards on the field can be activated and they are not negated by the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga". Furthermore, even if "Skill Drain" is no longer active afterwards, the effect of "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is not applied.[5]
- Q: When an opponent's "Rune-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" (3000 ATK) declares an attack, "D/D/D Contract Revision" was activated, and the efect to reduce ATK was activated. At that time, can a "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" (3500 ATK) be banished?
- A: In the proposed scenario, a "D/D/D" Monster with higher ATK thant the opponent's attacking monster can be banished from your Graveyard. In the proposed scenario, the ATK of "Rune-Eyes Pendulum Dragon" becomes 0.[6]
- Q: I activate the effect of "Odd-Eyes Wing Dragon" that negates an Effect Monster's effects, targeting a face-up "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" on my opponent's field. If "Book of Moon" is chained to this effect, and "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is changed to face-down Defense Position, how does the effect of "Odd-Eyes Wing Dragon" resolve?
- A: In this scenario, if the targeted "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is in face-down Defense Position when resolving the effect of "Odd-Eyes Wing Dragon", its effects are not negated.[7]
- Q: If "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" is Special Summoned from my Extra Deck with the effect of "Xyz Shift", can I still activate the "● Xyz" effect of "Dark Contract with the Grotesque Entity"?
- A: The "● Xyz" effect of "Dark Contract with the Grotesque Entity" can be activated when a "D/D/D" Xyz Monster is Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, not only by Xyz Summon but also the effects of cards such as "Xyz Shift".[8]
- Q: My "Amazoness Pet Liger" attacks my opponent's "D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga" and is destroyed by battle. In this case, after damage calculation, can I still activate the effect of "Amazoness Pet Liger" that reduces the ATK of an opponent's monster by 800?
- A: Even if "Amazoness Pet Liger" attacks and is destroyed by battle, you can activate its effect after damage calculation.[9]
