[@SuperNickid]

@DistantCoder: one of the correct answer you give with the rulling question was incorrect, it would not have interfer with Dzeff because he answer it wrong either way. I copy an paste strate from the rulling page of yugipedia "Slifer the Sky Dragon" is targeted by "Shrink", after its ATK becomes half of its original ATK, its effect that causes its ATK to become the number of cards in your hand x 1000 is applied once again, and the ATK ends up being the number of cards in your hand x 1000. Also, even after the effect of "Shrink" wears out, the ATK is still the number of cards in your hand x 1000. Furthermore, even if the number of cards in your hand varies, the ATK varies according to the number of cards in your hand. When you told the correct answer you told the rulling for megamorph.

[@gianlucam7456]

So, is Slifer's stat boost basically a continuous effect?

[@jgarcia9613]

@@gianlucam7456 unless negated which shrink in reference doesn’t do, yes he still would gain attack to however many cards you have in hand

I was literally about to comment on this. Shrink targets the original ATK, and the text on the card clearly says it "gains 1000 ATK/DEF for each card in your hand", not "Original ATK becomes x1000 for each card in your hand".

[@luigibraun7095]

shrink halves the original atk, since the original atk is 0, slifer's attack is 4000

[@sanauj15]

The unaffected vs slime is the same reason why you can attack with an unaffected monster against swords of revealing light and not mystic mine. Cards that mentions monsters affect them.

[@eugenideddis]

I’m pretty sure if it was Threatening Roar (Your Opponent cannot declare an attack), then it couldn’t attack

[@sanauj15]

@@eugenideddis Yep, that's correct.

[@jk844100]

I looked for Rulings on Slifer Vs Shrink and this is what I found: If "Slifer the Sky Dragon" is targeted by "Shrink", after its ATK becomes half of its original ATK, its effect that causes its ATK to become the number of cards in your hand x 1000 is applied once again, and the ATK ends up being the number of cards in your hand x 1000. Also, even after the effect of "Shrink" wears out, the ATK is still the number of cards in your hand x 1000. Furthermore, even if the number of cards in your hand varies, the ATK varies according to the number of cards in your hand. So If I’m reading it correctly Slifer will become 0 then immediately once the chain has resolved become 1000x the number of cards. So Doug still got it wrong but so did Coder. It’s attack will be 4000 once the chain is resolved.

[@MansMan42069]

I'm just confused whether it's confirmed that a printed ATK of ? counts as an original ATK of 0.

[@jk844100]

@@MansMan42069 well Slifer says it “gains attack equal to…” meaning if its at 4K for 4 cards then ? must be 0.

@@MansMan42069 ? ATK/DEF means it's unconfirmed everywhere except the field While on the field, its original ATK is equal to whatever effect changes its original ATK. In the case of Slifer, he has none, it only changes its overall ATK, so its original ATK on the field is 0 King of the Skull Servants is an example of a card that changes its own original ATK, and if you use Shrink on it, then its ATK changes will stop, unlike what this ruling says about Slifer, since King's ATK change is to its original ATK directly, which you are setting to a specific value (that being half of whatever it is at the time of activation)

[@Lonely_Ronin]

Oh boy do I have a news for you 😊

[@tehy123]

overall nice presentation but it would be nice if it was easier to read the critical cards' text at all times. it is nice that you usually at least show their text but in that format it's too tiny to read, and sometimes there are multiple cards I would like to read myself but only one is being selected. no big deal but it's fun to play along and harder if I have to go google each card by myself

[@Zetact_]

I have to really call out the second question Shrink interaction. The ATK gain is a continuous effect, exact wording "Gains 1000 ATK/DEF for each card in your hand", not "this card's original ATK/DEF is 1000 * the number of cards in your hand". Rulings on cards like Jester Lord, Ra, Wiracocha Rasca, The Tyrant Neptune, etc. with the same wording state that Shrink only changes the original ATK from 0 to 0 but then the ATK gain via their effects is unchanged. Why would Osiris be different from these cards with the exact same type of effect?

[@emilianoflcn]

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think it was shrink setting the attack until end of turn which overrides any attack gain or loss

[@EliaIlProfeta]

Unless it's a translation error from the Tcg, shrink only sets the ORIGINAL attack to half of itself, not the actual attack. Slifer isn't negated, so its attack gain effect should still apply. It should logically have 4000 attack

[@AverageJohan]

@@emilianoflcn that's how it usually works when an effect sets the current Attack to a certain value, but Shrink changes the original Attack to half, which is just 0. When the original Attack is set to a new value, other effects that increase/decrease are re-applied based on the new original Attack. Slifer should stay at 4000 in this scenario.

Damn, the new layout looks great! Very fun vid, really well put together. Only have a lil constructive criticism: Idk if they got edited out from the VOD or not, but some more thorough explanations on why certain cards worked the way they do in the rulings would be v much appreciated. Some were explained really well, and others were more just "doesn't work that way", and I was left curious as to why. They may have been edited out for length which I do get though. And the only other thing, I just kinda wish the cards' text was more readable! The popups with the relevant text on screen was super helpful, but there were some questions, while trying to guess along with the video, I wish I didnt have to look up the card to read it haha. But yeah, yall outdid yourselves this time. Excited for the rest of this season, super happy to see this series back!!

actually the shrink ruling is wrong, since shrink only changes original attack, slifer's original attack will be 0, then its continues effect re-applies and its attack becomes 4k again

[@manjackson2772]

That final attack orders ruling is basically the reason why bottomless trap hole can destroy a don zaloog if mystic plasma zone is on the field, but slightly less intuitive because turning the card vertical feels like an action that should start a chain in a way that adding 500 ATK doesn't

Wait I'm mega confused on the Shrink why would changing Slifer's original attack result in its current attack changing at all when Slifer's 4000/4000 comes from its effect "Gains 1000 ATK/DEF for each card in your hand." So before the Shrink, Slifer has 0 original ATK and 4000 ATK added by its effect, Shrink halves 0/2 = 0, Slifer's effect still gives it 4000 ATK. What am I missing here?

[@davgutz9946]

It changes its attack to half of its original, which is 0, and locks it at that value for the rest of the turn.

[@EliaIlProfeta]

It changes its ORIGINAL attack to half of the original. The current attack isn't locked.

Yoooo I was just rewatching the old episodes

[@yurazah]

that shrink ruling may be correct but its a war crime that it works in that nonsensical way

[@cdgames69]

It's actually not, 'though There's a specific ruling with Shrink and Slifer that states his ATK will drop to 0, but then immediately spike back to whatever his effect allows it to be. It then goes on to say that it retains this attack after Shrink wears off, implying that the former all happen while Slifer is affected by Shrink This doesn't just apply to continuous effects either, as a nearly identical ruling can be found with Ra. I believe Shrink with overwrite effects that *set* ATK to a certain value (there's a lot of rulings for that), however Slifer and Ra both *gain* ATK from their effects. It would also hypothetically overwrite cards that gain Original ATK, but to my knowledge all cards that adjust Original ATK set their Original ATK rather than gaining it (such as King of the Skull Servants)

[@yurazah]

@@cdgames69 so your saying coder is wrong?

[@cdgames69]

@@yurazah Either that or there's a ruling difference between TCG and OCG, however I can't think of any way that attack change rulings are different. The differences are mostly with trigger effects, I can't find anything to suggest that attack changes would be different I've also found some TCG rulings involving Jester Lord (who similarly gains ATK from its effect), but they were on the wiki, and their source seems to have vanished, leading to the Yu-Gi-Oh home page instead, although this is likely moreso due to the fact that they only ever keep a single FAQ on their website at a time for some reason

[@AverageJohan]

@@yurazah for that specific ruling, yes, he's wrong. An activated effect that sets the original attack to a new value does not prevent increasing/decreasing effects from working. He confused the shrink interaction with Megamorph, which sets current attack to a new value, instead of original attack.

[@AndrewK209]

I was playing MD last night and my opponent was using every effect at their disposal to out my Kikinagashi fucho despite it being unaffected by card effects. They even tried to dropplet it TWICE 😂 they passed 3 turns without attacking over it even though it had no materials left on it 😂

Once we choose a monster to attack with, then we choose an attack target, so if we select an unaffected monster to attack it can target the un-targetable. I honestly got that one wrong due to the "Opponent cannot target" phrase, I figured it affected the opponent, so I came up with that explanation 😆 Yet another lovely Battle Phase exception!
