Forum:Checking cards that are not viewable

Okay, I have been having some problems with this but I really need to know. I have been told that if my opponent is using a card's effect, that I get to check the card/field at any time. This seems to be a good idea for this game. However, I seem to have a problem between this and another ruling. The second ruling says that I, the opposing player, cannot check cards not revealed to me. this includes face-down cards on my opponent's field, my opponent's Extra deck and my opponent's hand. I have listed below two different times that the game WC10 has prevented me from seeing a card. Please tell me if the game is correct in this.


 * 1 - When activating a card effect in my opponent's hand, (Naturia Rock), I was unable to see the card to see if it was negating my card. I was prompted to chain but I had no idea what the card was doing. Am I entitled to know what the card does?


 * 2 - When my opponent activates Future Fusion, The Fusion monster is flipped up and then down. I do not get anything except a tiny thumbnail of the card. If I do not know the cards, all I will be able to check is the monsters sent to the graveyard. Am I entitled to know what the card does? it's name? Effect? Type? Attribute? Attack/Defence?

I understand why I cannot see cards that are not shown to me, but how is it that the cards are revealed to me but I am still unable to see them? Is this just a flaw in the game, (WC10), or is this a way to steamroll through effects to disadvantage opponents? --LordGeovanni 05:02, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
