- FAQs

Part 1: Tachikaze (Ancient Dragons)

(i) Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend Vs Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg

Question:
When [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend] declare an attack and is boosted by [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg], and you activate the Limit Break ability of [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend], and you choose the boosting unit, [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] as one of the 3 units, will i still gain the boosted power?

Answer:
No, you will not be able to get the boosted power of [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] during attack calculation as the boosted unit is no longer boosting the unit even if [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] is returned to the same rear-guards circle by its ability as its already over the boosting step. Hence the total power of [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend] is only 21,000 and not 28,000 (if previously you boost it with [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg].

(ii) Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend Vs Ancient Dragon, Baby Rex

Question:
When [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend] declare an attack and is boosted by [Ancient Dragon, Baby Rex], and you activate the Limit Break ability of [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend], and you choose the boosting unit, [Ancient Dragon, Baby Rex] as one of the 3 units, will i still gain the boosted power?

Answer:
Same as the above, the answer is No. So the attack power of [Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend] will only be 21,000 and not 26,000.

(iii) Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg VS Ancient Dragon, Spinodriver

Question:
The situation is like this i got a [Ancient Dragon, Spinodriver] as my vanguard and 3 [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] in my rear guard and a [Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex] in my bind zone. Let say my Vanguard's attack did not hit and i pay the cost for [Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex] with using 3 [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg].

At this point can i activate the effect for the Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] to bring it back to the rear guard circle? since my vanguard is still technically the [Ancient Dragon, Spinodriver] and not the [Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex] yet?
OR
I cannot activate the Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg]'s ability because i have to ride my [Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex] first, hence, my Vanguard is no longer an Ancient Dragon?

Answer:
For the example, no, it will not work, as the ability resolution for Vanguard can only be done one at a time. As such, when the [Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex]'s ability is fully resolved, your Vanguard is no longer an Ancient Dragon, so the resolution for [Ancient Dragon, Iguanogorg] will no longer be possible.

Part 2: Genesis

Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna Vs Witch of Crows, Chamomile/Witch of Frogs, Melissa

Question:
When i use [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s skill to Soul Blast the 2 Witches [Witch of Crows, Chamomile] and [Witch of Frogs, Melissa], do I finish Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s ability first or call the two witches first then continue with [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s ability?

And if I suppose to finish [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna] skill first, after i complete [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s ability and get a trigger, do I allocate the trigger first or call that 2 Witches out then only allocate the trigger effect?

Answer:
To put it simply, the correct flow is:
- Perform first drive check, activate [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s ability if the conditions are met.
- Resolve [Witch of Crows, Chamomile] or [Witch of Frogs, Melissa]'s ability, if any of them were placed in the drop zone.
- Perform second drive check, activate [Goddess of Good Luck, Fortuna]'s ability if the conditions are met again.
