Monster Token Rulings

OCG Rulings

  • Book of Eclipse: You cannot activate "Book of Eclipse" if the only monsters on the field are Monster Tokens. Also, if "Book of Eclipse" is activated while a "Slate Warrior" and a Monster Token in Attack Position are on the field, "Slate Warrior" is changed to face-down Defense Position, but the Monster Token remains in face-up Attack Position.[2]
  • Book of Moon: Monster Tokens cannot be changed to face-down Defense Position. Therefore, they cannot be targeted with "Book of Moon".[3]
  • Dark End Dragon: You can target a Monster Token with the effect of "Dark End Dragon". In that case, when the effect resolves, the Monster Token disappears instead of being sent to the Graveyard.[5]
  • Heat Wave: Monster Tokens Special Summoned by an effect like "Scapegoat" are treated as Normal Monsters. Therefore, "Scapegoat" can be activated during the turn in which "Heat Wave" was activated.[8]
  • Kasha: The ATK of "Kasha" is determined by the number of returned monsters which are Zombie-Type while they are in the Deck. If "Zoma the Spirit" is returned to the Deck, it is not a Zombie-Type monster while in the Deck, so it is not counted. Monster Tokens are not returned to the Deck, so they will not be counted.[9]
  • Swords of Concealing Light: You can activate "Swords of Concealing Light" even if the opponent controls Monster Tokens. In that case, when the effect resolves, the Monster Tokens do not change their battle positions. (For example, if a Monster Token was in Attack Position, it remains in Attack Position.) However, "Monsters your opponent controls cannot change their battle positions. Destroy this card during your 2nd Standby Phase after activation." is applied normally.[13]
  • Unibird: You can banish Monster Tokens or an "Embodiment of Apophis" as an activation cost for the effect of "Unibird". In that case, you will still Special Summon a Synchro Monster whose Level is equal to or lower than the combined Levels of "Unibird" and the banished monster.[14]

TCG Rulings

Konami Rulings

  • Monster Tokens are monsters that appear on the field as the result of a card’s effect. They are not included in the Deck, and cannot be sent anywhere other than the field, such as the hand or Graveyard. When a Token is destroyed or returned to the hand or deck, they are simply removed from the field instead. You can use official Token cards or use coins, card sleeves, or any similar marker (as long as it can indicate Attack Position or Defense Position) as Monster Tokens and play them in Monster Card Zones. Each Monster Token takes up 1 of your 5 Monster Card Zones. Their battle position is always either face-up Attack Position or face-up Defense Position.[16]
