Card Rulings:The Bistro Butcher

Mentions in Other Rulings

 * Ancient Lamp: If you use the effect of "Ancient Lamp" to make the opponent's "Don Zaloog" or "The Bistro Butcher" attack your opponent's own monster, the effect of "Don Zaloog" or "The Bistro Butcher" will not activate because they are not doing Battle Damage to the opponent's Life Points.


 * Damage Condenser: If your opponent attacks you directly with "The Bistro Butcher" while you have no cards in your hand, you cannot draw 2 cards for "The Bistro Butcher" then discard to activate "Damage Condenser"; you've missed the chance to activate it.


 * Reborn Zombie: For "Reborn Zombie's" effect, you look at the number of cards in your hand at Damage Calculation. So if you have no cards in your hand and the opponent attacks your Attack Position "Reborn Zombie" with "The Bistro Butcher", your monster will not be destroyed. Then you will draw the 2 cards when the effect of "The Bistro Butcher" resolves.


 * Robbin' Goblin: If you have "Robbin' Goblin" on the field and attack with "Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer" or "The Bistro Butcher" both effects activate simultaneously. When attacking with "The Bistro Butcher" you can choose the order that they go on a chain, so you can have the opponent draw due to the effect of "The Bistro Butcher" and then discard for the effect of "Robbin' Goblin". When attacking with "Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer", since its effect is optional, the effect of "Robbin' Goblin" will be Step 1 of the chain, and the effect of "Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer" will be Step 2.
