I always thought it was pretty clear that if you are physically choosing a card by selecting it or pointing st it then it is targeting. With Ryko, you choose the card which would mean it targets. Bottomless destroys whatever monster is summoned and you dobnot physically choose the monster so it doesnt target.

How I understand some of these rulings: 2:21 Trap monsters just state that they are stil traps. So there is this weird ruling that if you book of moon these cards, they are set back again in the spell/trap zone. Therefore they need a "spaceholder" to make sure there is space for them in case they get booked. 3:08 basically the game recognizes that the monster is send first to the gy, before caius was summoned, even if it was just for a very short moment, and therefore the gy effect has to trigger first because it happened earlier. 7:53 Basically the card doesnt state that you get to look, so you arent allowed to check, because with that logic, everytime your opponent sets a monster or a spell/trap face down, how do you not know that your opponent is cheating, maybe he is playing infernity and just set a monster in the spell/trap zone. Because you cannot call a judge everytime someone sets something, you arent allowed to do the same with mind crush

Additional things to note at each of the rulings: 1: The general theory I've accepted as to why Rivalry/Gozen work differently for Tribute and Special Summons is due to the fact you can place the card face-down in a Tribute Summon but not a Special Summon, and when it's time for the action to occur (after tributes are made). Remember that the nuance for the action of "Tribute Summon" is weird; you can activate Precious Cards from Beyond when Tribute Setting a monster, you cannot tribute Ojama or Sheep tokens for Tribute Summons or Sets, etc. 2: From the way you're explaining it, I'm not sure you understand. The Trap Monster occupies the Monster Zone yet the Spell & Trap Zone it used to occupy cannot be used a la Ground Collapse or Ojama King for Monster Zones. The important distinction is that you can target Zoma, for example, with MST or Remove Trap but cannot be sent to activate Counter Gem because it is only in the Monster Zone. (I really struggled to think of an edison example of where this could matter so this is largely inconsequential; just wanted to make sure you, and others, were aware.) 3: There's not much to add that others already haven't so I'll spare this one. 4: In defense of My Body as a Shield, the text was worded as "card or effect" which is basically synonymous with today's "card effect" or a lengthy "Spell/Trap Card or effect, or monster effect" (though thankfully I don't think that is used). This distinction is similar to why you can activate oppression against an already active Valhalla or Black Garden, but not a Solemn (Judgment/Warning). 5: Yeah DDV is dumb. DDV is unique, to the point that a similar effect in Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin doesn't interact the same way. One of those rules that was made back pre-2006 that never got questioned enough to update. 6: "cheating is allowed" is pretty misleading. Yeah, someone COULD discard only 1 of the named card when they have 2 and that would pretty unanimously be agreed as cheating. In practice, there really wouldn't be a time to exploit that. obv there's the fact that online you can check replays and irl you can call a judge at any time (within reason), but I'm not even talking about checking the act. Good players would activate Mind Crush in one of two scenarios: a card was just added to the hand or is simply known to exist there (dustshoot, etc), or you are reading or preparing for the opponent to have a card that, if played, would threaten you by either preventing lethal (gorz) or generates a massive advantage (card-wise or position-wise). 7: I've never once before today heard that Armory Arm checked the ATK of the monster on the field. There's no real historic ruling on yugipedia for the TCG referencing how Armory Arm references the ATK of the destroyed monster, and edisonformat has a reference to a feature match post; I don't even want to get into why that doesn't prove much and shouldn't be used as a ruling source. Even the pojo post referenced for the "change" was asking in the email "yeah no ruling really exists, so please give one". I'd say Colossal Arm works in edison but not a few formats later because of the change in Colossal, making it optional and thus makes SEGOC resolve it first then Arm loses its reference. For what it's worth, I (who may or may not be Asta) would rule it as ATK in the grave unless I research further and find something else. 8: Quickdraw Ignition Effect is so dumb. The reasoning for Quickdraw Ignition Effect is basically some judge (I think it was even Kevin Tewart) saying "this is worded the same way as drill warrior, so it works that way until the card gets reworded and fixed". I agree that it's not something that makes sense.

So I can actually explain the Sangan Caius thing. SEGOC used to work (in TCG only) that triggered effects that would be activated at the same time activate in the order that they met their conditions. A tribute summon works by Tributing the monster on the field and then performing the summon, so Sangan is sent to the GY and then Caius is summoned. Since both are mandatory, they also decide their order at the same point in SEGOC rules and must activate in that order.

@@k8s721 Not quite. The thing is: yes, counter traps can be activated during the damage step, but not because they are counter traps. Some effects state that effects will be negated. Cards that negate effects can not be activated during the damage step. Starlight road is a good example. If you destroy an absolute zero by battle, you can not negate that effect with starlight road. You can however negate the activation during the damage step. Stardust Dragon and every single negating counter trap negates the activation. Thats why you can activate them during the damage step.

mind crush would be easily fixed (and buffed) if they errata'd it to REVEAL THE OPPONENT'S HAND FIRST regardless if they have the declared card or not... something like: Declare 1 card name; check your opponent's hand, then discard all cards with the declared name (if any). this wording makes it so you STILL check hand even if you declare a banned card or whatever

I didn't know some of these, and it does beg the question; would it terribly harm the integrity of the format if these rulings were re-evaluated? Some like the Trap monster ruling don't really need to be addressed, since that's not exclusive to Edison (that ruling was only recently overturned for modern format), but the Quickdraw ruling and the DDV one are super-unintuitive, and don't really add much. On the other hand, if the Rivalry/Gozen ruling were to go the other way, and resemble the modern format ruling, then that could have major consequences for the balance of the metagame.

The reason for My Body’s ruling comes from the Gold Series 3 errata which says “When your opponent activates a card or effect that would destroy a monster(s) on the field”. It was released in the tcg in June 2010, but was already released in the ocg before Edison format so thats how the ruling came to be.

Hi Karpath, the first ruling is wrong: there is an mail from Konami (June 2010) which they said "Synchro Monsters are chosen before the Synchro Material Monsters are sent to the Graveyard, so you cannot choose a Synchro Monster of a Type that isn’t the Type of monster you currently control while Rivalry of Warlords is active. You may Tribute one type for another, but you must Set the monster of the new Type. " Between March and June no rulings have been changed, because at that time rulings changed from UDE to Konami in April 2009.

@@Xfighter22 It depends on where the card in question is located. ? is considered undefined and not equal to 0 while the card is not on the field.
