Q&A Rulings
- Q: I activate the first effect of "Unchained Soul of Disaster", targeting my opponent's face-up "Tenyi Spirit - Ashuna". If my opponent chains "Vanity's Emptiness", how does the effect resolve?
- A: In this scenario, the effect of "Unchained Soul of Disaster" resolves while the effect of "Vanity's Emptiness" that prevents players from Special Summoning is applying. In that case, since a Link Summon cannot be performed, "Unchained Soul of Disaster" and "Tenyi Spirit - Ashuna" both remain on the field.[2][3]
