- While Metallizing Parasite - Lunatite is equipped to a monster, and Final Destiny is activated, all monsters are destroyed except for the monster equipped with Metallizing Parasite - Lunatite.
- If you equip Metallizing Parasite - Lunatite to a monster that has been affected by Limiter Removal, the monster is still destroyed during the End Phase by Limiter Removal's effect. If you equip two copies of Metalmorph to a single monster, its ATK/DEF will be increase by 600 and the second effect will add half of your attack target’s ATK to the equipped monster’s ATK twice.
- The second effect of this card only increases the equipped monster’s ATK when it is the attacking monster (during your Battle Phase) not when it is being attacked during your opponent’s Battle Phase.
- If Reverse Trap is activated, a monster equipped with Metalmorph will have its ATK/DEF decreased by 300 points, but the second effect of Metalmorph will be unaffected and still increase the equipped monster’s ATK by an amount equal to half of the attacked monster’s ATK.
- Q: When is the right time to activate "Metalmorph?" A: You can activate this card anytime it would be legal to activate a Trap Card. You can activate this card during the Damage Step because it modifies the ATK/DEF of a monster.
- Q: Can I equip two "Metalmorphs" to the same monster? If so, is the effect cumulative? A: You can more then 1 "Metalmorph" to the same monster. The effects are cumulative.
- Q: During an attack, when does the increase of ATK to the monster equipped with "Metalmorph" occur? A: The half attack increase to ATK occurs during the Damage Step.
