Q&A Rulings
- Q: A Normal Summoned "Tatsunecro" and "Zombowwow" are face-up in my Monster Zone. In this situation, if I Synchro Summon a "Red-Eyes Zombie Necro Dragon" using that "Tatsunecro" and "Zombowwow" on my field, and a "Bacon Saver" in my hand, which of those materials are banished?
- A: When using "Tatsunecro" as a material for a Synchro Summon along with a monster in your hand as written in its text, all materials used for that Synchro Summon are banished. In this scenario, the 3 monsters used as materials for the Synchro Summon, "Tatsunecro", "Zombowwow", and "Bacon Saver", are banished.[2]
- Q: "Imperial Iron Wall" is face-up in my opponent’s Spell & Trap Zone, and its effect that prevents players from banishing cards is applying. In this situation, when using a Normal Summoned/Set "Tatsunecro" as material for a Synchro Summon, can I still use a monster in my hand?
