Rulings

(1) Cards cannot be removed from play.

  • The (1) Continuous-like Effect does not activate.
  • Cards CANNOT activate if their cost / effect would remove a card(s) from play
  • Examples: Allure of Darkness, Nobleman of Crossout, Book of Life, Bottomless Trap Hole).
  • If Imperial Iron Wall is chained, effects earlier in the Chain resolve as much as possible.
  • Example: Player A activated Allure of Darkness and Imperial Iron Wall was chained. Player A only needs to reveal a DARK monster in hand. If they cannot, they discard their entire hand.
  • Example: Imperial Iron Wall was chained to Nobleman of Crossout, the targeted monster is destroyed but it is not removed from play. No cards in the Deck are removed from play.
  • Imperial Iron Wall trumps the effect of Macro Cosmos since it prevents an action.
