I have too much respect for judges like Coder, especially Coder here. He entertains chat and has to deal with random calls like that xD. Unchained is fun though, glad to see fun on Twitch
It’s okay Coder, I forget to Pank all the time too because I forget that Dinowrestlers even exist. Imagine making an entire archetype just to give us one playable card.
@@lilsunny7399 This must be what Cyber Dragon felt like on release. “Hey guys, glad to see I’m in your deck again. Oh man, are you going to fuse me together with my friends and make a big cool boss monster? No? 2100 beat stick again, eh.. well that’s okay. Maybe next time.”
9:20 Yeah people don't know you cannot force your opponent to pick a legal target, that's because targeting a card is not a cost, it's an activation requirement, meaning that if you pick an invalid target, the activation itself is illegal, that's different from paying a cost for an effect (and that's why some judges get pissed when someone says targeting is a cost). It's like when someone declares a Link Summon and Links a monster that they cannot legaly make, you don't say to your opponent "but you already declared a Link Summon, link summon a legal monster.", right? Well, is the same principle as targeting cards for activation requirements. The reason why people think you're forced to pick a target is because of automated simulators where you're force to always pick a valid target. That and many other reasons are why automatic simulators shouldn't be taken seriously for rulings, or at least being taken with a grain of salt.
I’m not quite sure that I understand with the comparison you’re using as auto sims already hide illegal targets for Xyz, Syncro and Link summons based on the current game state during the duel. I have little experience playing the game outside an auto sim, so sorry for my confusion.
Isn’t cost and activation requirement the same thing? Activation requirement is just the proper way to say “cost”. Also this is the only issue with simulators. Other than this simulators are a really good way to learn rulings. (Assuming they have the correct rulings)
@@DimkaSulegnaa [I dont actually know the ruling I am just translating the original comment] Auto sims let you fulfil the picking requirement before you summon, so it stops most messes with "illegal summons" since it just isn't possible. But with targeting for cards it only lets you pick after you already "activate" (you technically haven't until you picked a zone since they are both meant to be done simultaneously) which is technically incorrect and should be the same as the summoning. The point the original comment was making is that in manual sims most people know that if someone does an illegal summon they have to revert the summon completely since auto sims basically stop anyone from doing that. But with targeting for cards auto sims do a weird thing where they add an extra ruling where the player is forced to choose any valid target if the original target isn't valid, which is technically not part of the rules (at least for cards that don't use targeting as a effect). It should work like summoning where you are forced to revert.
not true. if you link summon into the wrong monster a judge can force you to summon a legal target if you have one ._.) synchro/link/xyz summon is not the same as illegal activation
I have seen a judge tell someone to link summon a legal target in their ED if there is one before, and thought it was really stupid at the time. Thanks for letting me know that's not okay indirectly
12:25 He should’ve explained how anything that says “destroy” is always done at resolution (after semicolon) while anything that says “target” is done at activation (before semicolon). So that would mean DD Crow can only stop cards when everything happens before the semicolon.
Idea for another Rulings Quiz: Clifton Land, with Drytrons. I feel that since he plays this deck, he should know most, but with the lesser known spells, traps and such, i feel that you could throw him for a loop. Keep up the great work, and cant wait to see more from you.
Once again, the Twitch link keeps breaking and adding some weird Wingdings at the end of the Twitch link. I have to manually remove the end bits. I'm not upset, it's just funny. XD
as a duel links player skills are once per duel its a bit painful because there's no reason as to why its once per turn it just is because Konomi said so. also no with the Christmas music
So a card like ''Tri-Brigade Revolt'' that has the text that you described: You can respond to the spell trap activation/Monster effect activation like normal, on chain. Then AFTER it has fully resolved, the ''immediately after this effect resolves'' goes, but this is NOT part of the chain. In the case of Revolt, Revolt special summons cards from the gy, then after that part has resolved, you perform a normal link summon, at which point it can be responded to with Solemn Strike. If this part was all the same effect, you could not Solemn Strike it for example, because you respond to the trap activation, which Solemn Judgment and Warning deal with. Hope it helps
On turn 2 while I have Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer on the field, I active Break the Destiny during my opponents draw/standby phase to destroy DPE to skip my opponent’s Main Phase 1. Does my opponent have to go straight to Main Phase 2 or do they just lose their whole turn since they can’t go into the battle phase??
Why would he negate rakea with Barrone ? You had no cards in hand so popping abom accomplishes nothing, and even if you did have cards in hand, it would be more worth it to wait for the abom to trigger and negate that
Actually I just seen what the Geist player did. I’d hate Geist too if someone tried pulling that bullshit. He was like screw the rules I have trap cards 😂😂😂😂😂
i had a game in locals where at the start of the game, we had to cut of decks, he picked up my deck and shuffled it which is normally fine, but the way he picked it up and shuffled it (which having the angle of the cards pointing towards him), while looking at the deck made it seemed he was actually looking at my cards at the bottom of my deck. Would this be considered cheating in a real tournaments?
So quick question, so if I xyz summon for dark rebellion xyz dragon and want to rank up to dark requiem, do I need the rank up magic spell card or not.
