Q&A Rulings

  • Q: There are 3 "Hippo Tokens" on my opponent's field. In this situation, if I attack a "Hippo Token" with "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate", can I activate its effect at the end of the Damage Step that banishes all monsters on my opponent's field?
A: In this scenario, even if the only monsters on your opponent's field are Tokens, you can activate the effect of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate". As a result, the Tokens disappear when they leave the field, but the effect that halves battle damage your opponent takes this turn is still applied. During the End Phase of this turn, the effect of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" that Special Summons the monsters banished by its effect will activate and start a Chain, but the Tokens are not Special Summoned to your opponent's field.[1]
  • Q: I activate the effect of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" at the end of the Damage Step and banish my opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon". During my Main Phase 2, if I activate "De-Synchro" and return "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" to the Extra Deck, will its effect that Special Summons the monsters banished by its effect activate during the End Phase?
A: In this scenario, if "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" leaves the field after its effect is used at the end of the Damage Step, its effect that Special Summons the banished monsters during the End Phase will not activate. (In this case, your opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon" remains banished.)[2]
  • Q: I activate the effect of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" at the end of the Damage Step and banish my opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon". During my Main Phase 2, if I activate "Book of Moon" and change "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" to face-down Defense Position, will its effect that Special Summons the monsters banished by its effect activate during the End Phase?
A: In this scenario, if "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" is changed to face-down Defense Position after its effect is used at the end of the Damage Step, its effect that Special Summons the banished monsters during the End Phase will not activate. (In this case, your opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon" remains banished.) Also note that even if "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" is flipped face-up by an effect such as "Ceasefire" before the End Phase, its effect will still not activate.[3]
  • Q: I activate the effect of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" at the end of the Damage Step and banish my opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon". During my Main Phase 2, if my opponent activates "Enemy Controller" and takes control of "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate", will its effect that Special Summons the monsters banished by its effect activate during the End Phase?
A: Even if control of your "Timelord Progenitor Vorpgate" is switched after its effect is used at the end of the Damage Step, its effect that Special Summons the banished monsters during the End Phase will activate. However, since your opponent was not the one who banished monsters with its effect, the effect that Special Summon monsters that you banished does not apply. (In this case, your opponent's "Odd-Eyes Phantom Dragon" remains banished.)[4]
