Goat format ruling
Legacy Hunter
Card effect (current official text)When this card attacks a face-down Defense Position monster and destroys it and sends it to the Graveyard as a result of battle, your opponent returns 1 random card from their hand to their Deck. Their Deck is then shuffled.
Rulings
- If Legacy Hunter attacks a face-down Man-Eater Bug or Cyber Jar, Legacy Hunter's effect is not applied because Legacy Hunter's effect activates when the monster he destroyed is sent to the GY, and Legacy Hunter will no longer be on the field in these instances.
- The monster that Legacy Hunter attacks must be face-down at the start of the Damage Step for Legacy Hunter's effect to activate. So if Legacy Hunter attacks a face-down Defense Position monster and your opponent activates Ceasefire to flip the monster face-up, Legacy Hunter’s effect is NOT applied. Also, if Legacy Hunter attacks a face-up monster and Book of Moon flips it face-down, Legacy Hunter's effect DOES apply.
