Rulings
- Placing a Spell Counter on Breaker, the Magical Warrior is a chain that begins after it is Summoned. If your opponent chains Trap Hole or Ring of Destruction to the placement of a Spell Counter on Breaker, the Magical Warrior, Trap Hole / Ring of Destruction resolves before the Spell Counter is placed on Breaker, the Magical Warrior, so you cannot chain Breaker, the Magical Warrior's effect.
- Breaker, the Magical Warrior's effect is Spell Speed 1 so you cannot chain it to the activation of a Spell Card.
- You can use Breaker, the Magical Warrior's effect multiple times in the same turn as long as you can keep re-supplying him with Spell Counters (using Pitch-Black Power Stone, etc.).
- Removing a Spell Counter is a cost; if you remove a Spell Counter from Breaker, the Magical Warrior and your opponent chains Ring of Destruction, the Spell Counter has already been removed so Ring of Destruction deals 1600 damage to each player; Breaker, the Magical Warrior's effect that destroys a card is still applied even though Breaker, the Magical Warrior himself has been destroyed at that point.
- If I chain Ring of Destruction to the placement of a Spell Counter on Breaker, the Magical Warrior, Ring of Destruction does 1600 damage to each player because the action of placing the Spell Counter has not resolved.
