Forum:Batteryman Industrial Strength effect

Hi everyone,

Batteryman Industrial Strength effect says that i can destroy 1 monster and 1 trap/spell card on the field, lets say that my opponent only has trap/spell cards on his field or just monster on his field, can i use the effect to just destroy a spell/trap card, because there are no monsters or viceversa?

Please read the Card Rulings page before asking.

""Batteryman Industrial Strength's" effect cannot be activated unless there is at least 1 monster and at least 1 Spell or Trap Card on the field."  HHT   - (Talk to the Turtle) 23:54, June 26, 2012 (UTC)

Also, keep in mind it MUST destroy both a monster and an spell, so if your opponent has only an S/T and you control only Industrial Strenght, you would have to destroy both your opponent's S/T and your Industrial. Same happens if your opponent has a Monster and no S/T, and you have an S/T. Hope this helps! Allios (Talk|Contribs) 17:34, June 27, 2012 (UTC)

Indeed, Industrial Strength didn't say "Target at least 1 Monster OR Spell/Trap Card (max 1 each)" - which can give you a choose to destroy 1 or other or can destroy both. --iFredCat 17:42, June 27, 2012 (UTC)
