Negated Monsters. YOU'LL NEVER TOP IF YOU DON'T KNOW THIS.

[@MSTTV]

Extra Case: A monster that ACTIVATES in the GY (aka if this card is sent to the GY or is banished), it can use it's effect and it won't be negated. When a monster is removed from the field, then triggers or starts the chain link OUTSIDE of the field. Any applied effect on that card would be removed by then. The cases in this video specifically applies to monsters that attempt to activate on the field in which case cards that Activate on the field, resolve on the field. If it was negated on the field and attempts to activate an on field effect by removing itself for cost... It was negated on field thus negated when it resolves. Any applied effects on the field will affect the effects on the field. You can even illustrate this with fairy tail snow. A card effect revives snow with it's effect negated. A negated Snow activates the on-summon effect, then forbidden droplet chained to remove it for cost, however snows quick effect can be activates banishing 7 cards to summon herself out. In this chain, snow would summon back from GY (as that one activate outside of the field and thus is reset) droplet would resolve, then snow's summon trigger would still be negated.

[@juancechevarriacortes752]

Thanks for the video and this clarification; since was going to ask summon Tourguide to special Sangan and him going to the GY.

[@digiwatchtcg7625]

Can you explain why eglan still goes off? I would assume that because imperm is last in the chain link that imperm negates the effect. Book would flip face down but eff is 1x per turn so are you saying it would activate multiple times in the chain?

[@MSTTV]

I'm saying eglen would resolve to add the card. Because it got flipped down by the time we reached cl1. Imperm would no longer be applying by the time book finished resolving.

[@jearbear2464]

is this the same case with dark ruler no more on a monster with an effect tht goes to graveyard? like dark ruler no more sangan, destroyed by battle, will it activate and resolve properly in grave?

[@shadowofalegend8316]

had a situation back in the synchro era where I had to deal with a skill drain that hindered my gladiator beasts that were unable to go off and having recently coming across valuable information, I learned of similar bits and used that knowledge to tag a glad for bestiari and activated the effect to pop my opponent's skill drain and being smug of course he has no response. I was when I flipped BoM targeting my own card he got puzzled and of course with the chain concluding, my moster got flipped face-down and was able to apply and he got so salty when the local judge who I just shared my find with ruled in my favor. 10 out of 10 would do that again

Does the resetting only take place by flipping monsters face down, or can that happen in other situations too? For example sending it back into the deck or to the hand?

[@pizzahutcoguy3]

I would say they would still be negated (if the monster is attempting to activate its effect while already negated by something by droplets). It’s conceptually the same as the example of ecclesia, the card resolves where it was activated

[@MSTTV]

On field effects would immediately reset only by flipping if they already had negation applied.

Sending to deck or hand will not change it.

Yeah Is a helpful reminder, I know flipping is the most common way of resetting what effects are on a card, but seeing that helps.

[@pablorosada9788]

I feels like the difference between negated and removed from the field and negated and flipped face down is purely because konami said so. I mean, logically speaking, there is NO fundamental difference between the two. The monster that had its effects negated is no longer on the field just the same.

[@doublebasszealot1686]

[@BobbyCorwen42]

"anything applied to a monster flipped face down is reset" Does that apply to attack point changes? Say a monster gets its attack cut in half (with no "until the end of the turn" clause), and gets flipped face-down, does it go back to its original attack points?

[@Yugiohdeckmaster41]

also added ruling the soulsword trap remove your monster as part of the effect not a cost hence why imperm can be chained, however if say with elgen instead of book put Icarus attack, you tribute elgen as cost their for preventing your opponent from chaining imperm and elgen effect would resolve as normal since chalice would have no target. cost vs effect can determine a lot

In this case tho, they would not have activated imperm because eglen would be in the grave after icarus attack was activated right?

So "reset" to monster effects only happen to face-down monsters. Sending the monster to graveyard, banished zone, deck or hand DOES NOT reset a monster effect. If it activates on field, it resolves on the field. Also, working chains backwards step by step is key.

[@acr1327]

I got the first 2 right so far, but just want make sure I understand how to explain the concept- Would this be an accurate explanation? “If an effect is activated on the field, it resolves on the field- the location of the monster at resolution does not matter, unless the card doing the negating states that a specific location is a condition for its negation to persist.”

[@METAK188]

Last tournament judge screwed me with rescue cat ruling. I negated it with impermanence on field. He said it resolves...

[@METAK188]

Same story as ecclesia

[@CLGLazarus]

Does the Book of Moon interaction change if the negation is on the effect itself and not the monster? Specifically I'm thinking of Ash Blossom. Since Ash Blossom negates "that effect," does booking a monster "reset" the negation in the same way that monster negation would? I assume no, but it's never come up and I can't seem to find a 100% confident answer online. *edit* I just realized it's not really possible to have a chain link where this would occur. Since Ash Blossom has to be chained to the effect it would negate, there's no way (that I can think of?) to book it in between the effect activating and Ash Blossom activating. And I think it's fairly well understood that if you go Effect, Ash, Book of Moon, it would resolve since Ash can still negate the effect after the monster is flipped face down. It hasn't been applied yet for the book to reset anyway.

[@anyelord1]

If you negating the Effect with Something like Ash, BOM doesn’t protect anything; With Veiler or Imper yes cause need’s to target the monster.

[@MSTTV]

BOM would not protect against Ash, ash is directly negating the EFFECT that has been activated, and not negating a card.

If you ash a monster and they chain something to remove their monster on the field, would the monster resolve properly?

Ash negates the effect and not the card. So ash would resolve this negating the effect it's suppose to negate. The card itself isn't relevant to ash's negate.

And if no duration is described, then it's permanent (e.g Lost Wind) until the monster is reset somehow.
