Q&A Rulings
- Q: If the Special Summon of "Prior of the Ice Barrier" by its own effect is negated, can I Special Summon Level 5 or higher monsters during that turn?
- A: Yes, you can. "You cannot Special Summon any Level 5 or higher monsters the turn you use this effect" is applied when this card is successfully Special Summoned by its own effect.[2]
