Rulings
- When your opponent attacks with a monster that you Tribute Summoned, and your opponent took control of, you can activate Blast Held by a Tribute.
- Monsters like Tyrant Dragon cannot negate the effect of Blast Held by a Tribute.
- In order to inflict 1000 points of damage to your opponent, you must destroy all monsters on your opponent's side of the field first. So if you activate Blast Held by a Tribute, and your opponent chains Ring of Destruction or Interdimensional Matter Transporter so that your opponent has no monsters to destroy, then Blast Held by a Tribute inflicts no damage.
