Forum:Shooting Star Dragon v Divine Wrath

I was duelling with my friend and I had Shooting Star Dragon on the field, he had two Red Nova Dragons and Creation Resonator, this is what happened:-

ME: Activate SSD's first effect Friend: Activates Divine wrath

SSD is destroyed

I was wondering could I of chained SSD's second effect to negate Divine Wrath, my friends said I could only use one monster effect from the same monster in one chain, also due to SSD's first effect after his destruction i had to reveal the top 5 cards and I drew Monster reborn, Debris Dragon, Junk Synchron, Unknown Synchron and Delta Flyer (4 tuners) in other words if I could of chained SSD's second effect to Divine Wrath I would of won.

Thanks for the help 90.204.255.243 (talk) 22:13, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, also if I reduce Red Nova Dragons atk to 0 via, zero force or reptilianne naga, would Red Nova Dragons effect activate and increase his atk by 500 for each tuner or would it stay at zero until a new tuner was sent to the graveyard? 90.204.255.243 (talk) 22:17, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

A monster effect is at most a spell speed 2. Divine wrath, being a counter trap, is spell speed 3. You can not chain anything to a spell speed 3 accept another spell speed 3. So no monster effect can change to divine wrath because it will only be at most a spell speed 2. Grazzingcow (talk • contribs) 22:45, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

But SSD states a card that would destroy another card on the field since divine wrath would destroy SSD shouldn't his effect kick in 93.186.23.236 (talk) 23:13, November 3, 2011 (UTC)

SSD's effect would not kick in Quick Effects of monsters can only at best negate Spell speed 2 cards for SSD's quick effect is spell speed 2. sorry to say but Divine wrath does kill your SSD. Alphabecta (talk • contribs) 03:09, November 4, 2011 (UTC)

Do you know what is "Spell Speed"? Even if a Normal Trap say it can "Negate activation of a Counter Trap", it still CANNOT.--Lê (talk • contribs) 04:21, November 4, 2011 (UTC)
