Official TCG ruling: Majestic Star Dragon: If you negate the effect of a Gemini monster that is being treated as a Normal Monster, you cannot activate its effect. If you negated the effect of a Gemini monster after it's been Normal Summoned again, you cannot activate the negated effect because "Majestic Star Dragon" cannot be Summoned twice.
Official OCG ruling:
Majestic Star Dragon: You may not select a Gemini monster that is being treated as a Normal Monster as a target for the effect of "Majestic Star Dragon" which negates effects. If "Majestic Star Dragon" negates the effect of a Gemini monster like "Gigaplant" or "Doom Shaman", then the Gemini monster no longer has its effect which is listed by the "●", so therefore "Majestic Star Dragon" may not activate the Gemini monster's effect which is listed by the "●".
Their are no contradiction warning at the start of the ruling page, there should be one in that ruling page?Supernickid (talk • contribs) 15:00, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
- Hm? The Contradiction template is both in Card Rulings:Majestic Star Dragon and Card Rulings:Gemini monster. ATEMVEGETA (Talk) 21:53, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
The Contradiction template is not in the ruling for Dark Valkyria.Supernickid (talk • contribs) 02:08, October 26, 2013 (UTC)
- Ah I see now! You meant each Gemini monster ruling page individual and not the Card Rulings:Gemini monster. I will add the template to all pages. Thanks! ATEMVEGETA (Talk) 05:58, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
At the risk of sounding too picky even for this game, I don't see an explicit contradiction. The TCG ruling states that the effect of a Gemini Monster being treated as a Normal Monster can be negated, and the OCG ruling says that it can't be targeted for Majestic Star Dragon's effect. Those two things are not mutually exclusive. What if Majestic Star Dragon targets a monster equipped with Supervise, and Mystical Space Typhoon is Chained, destroying Supervise? Now both rulings apply. The contradiction is really just an implicit one. Battlemaniac (talk • contribs) 18:27, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
