Card Rulings:Dragunity Knight - Romulus
OCG Rulings
- This card's effect that adds 1 "Dragunity" Spell/Trap Card or "Dragon Ravine" from your Deck to your hand is a Trigger Effect. (It does not target.)[1]
- This card's effect that Special Summons a Dragon or Winged Beast-Type monster from your hand is a Trigger Effect that activates on the field. (It does not target.)[1]
- This effect finishes resolving by Special Summoning a monster from your hand. (The part of the effect that negates that monster's effects and prevents it from being used as Link Material is applied immediately at this time.)[1]
- This effect can be activated optionally when a Dragon-Type monster is Special Summoned from the Extra Deck to a zone this card points to. (It cannot be activated during the Damage Step.)[1]
Q&A Rulings
- Q: A "DNA Surgery" that was activated by declaring Dragon-Type is face-up in my opponent's Spell & Trap Zone, and my "Dragunity Knight - Romulus" is in the Extra Monster Zone. In this situation, if I Synchro Summon "Vortex the Whirlwind" to a zone that "Dragunity Knight - Romulus" points to, can I activate the effect of that "Dragunity Knight - Romulus" that Special Summons a Dragon or Winged Beast-Type monster from my hand?
- A: In this scenario, while the effect of "DNA Surgery" is applying, all face-up monsters on the field become Dragon-Type, and the Synchro Summoned "Vortex the Whirlwind" is treated as a Dragon-Type monster on the field. In this case, you can activate the effect of "Dragunity Knight - Romulus".[2]
