Q&A Rulings
- Q: While "Valkyrie Sechste" and "Valkyrie Erste" are the only monsters on my field, I activate the effect of "Valkyrie Erste" and banish a "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" from my opponent's GY, so that the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste" becomes 3000. In this situation, if I activate "Mischief of the Time Goddess" at the end of the Battle Phase, what happens to the ATK of "Valkyrie Erste"?
- A: In this scenario, the rest of the turn is skipped by the effect of "Mischief of the Time Goddess", and the effect of "Valkyrie Erste" is no longer applied. Therefore, its ATK returns to 1600.[2][3]
