Chain Disappearance
Card effect (current official text)When a monster(s) with 1000 or less ATK is Summoned: Banish that monster(s) with 1000 or less ATK, then your opponent banishes all cards with the same name as that card(s) from their hand and Deck.
Rulings
- You can activate Chain Disappearance in response to your own Summon of a monster, in which case your opponent still removes all cards with that name from his hand and Deck.
- If you use Chain Disappearance in response to a Flip Summon, any Flip Effects like Penguin Soldier would still resolve. The Flip Effect is Step 1 of the chain, and Chain Disappearance is step 2.
- If your opponent activates Chain Disappearance and you chain Ring of Destruction, Ring of Destruction resolves first and destroys the monster and sends it to the GY, and there is no monster of the same name so no cards are removed from play for the effect of Chain Disappearance.
- If you use "Chain Disappearance" when a Fusion Monster is Special Summoned, remove from play that Fusion Monster plus all copies of that Fusion Monster in the Fusion Deck.
