Forum:Few questions

Hi! Two questions : 1) Magic Cylinder's effect targets whereas Necro Gardna's doesn't. Yet, these two effects are somewhat similar to me, knowing that they all affect the attacking monster. Can you explain, please?

2) Do these combos work? If you don't mind, justify your answer a) Splendid Venus + Royal Decree ==> My traps would still work b) Splendid Venus + Sky Scourge Invicil (summoned By tributing a light Fairy-monster) ==> my spells would still work.

Thanks in advance.
