Rulings
- If your MP 1 is skipped because of Timeater, you can enter your Battle Phase (even if you have no monsters on the field) and proceed from there to MP 2. If you cannot enter your Battle Phase (due to another card effect such as Great Long Nose or Frozen Soul), then you must go immediately from SP to End Phase.
- If your Timeater and your opponent’s monster destroy each other as a result of battle, the effect of Timeater is still activated.
