Card Rulings:Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force
OCG Rulings
- This effect targets 1 face-up Xyz Monster you control.[1]
- You cannot target a face-down Xyz Monster you control.[1]
- If the monster targeted with "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force" is face-down when it resolves, then the effect is not applied. (No Xyz Monster is Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, and the targeted Xyz Monster remains on the field.)[2]
- "Solemn Judgment" and "Solemn Warning" cannot negate the Special Summon treated as an Xyz Summon by the effect of "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force". However you can use "Solemn Judgment" and "Solemn Warning" to negate the activation of "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force".[3]
- If there are monsters on your opponent's side of the field with Xyz Material when "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force" resolves, its effect to take 1 of those materials and attach it to the Special Summoned monster will take place after it is Special Summoned, so "Torrential Tribute" cannot be activated. If there are no monsters on your opponent's side of the field with Xyz Material when "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force" resolves, "Torrential Tribute" can be activated.[4]
- If "Forbidden Lance" is Chained to the activation of "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force", the targeted monster becomes unaffected by Spell Cards. In this case, the effect of "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force" is not applied. No Xyz Monster is Special Summoned from the Extra Deck, and the targeted Xyz Monster remains on the field.[5]
