Forum:Xyz Monsters as Monsters, Literally

Ok, so I was dueling in this site called Dueling Network (which is a manually operated dueling site) and my opponent Xyz Summons an Xyz Monster. I used Soul Exchange on his Blade Armor Ninja and he objected that Xyz's are NOT Monsters. I called him n00b (don't do this, it's a bad habit of mine) and argued that Xyz MONSTERS are Monsters. I proceeded to screenshot the scene and post it on the public chat of the site (again, don't do this) with the statement "When your opponent is a noob." Most of them ignored my post but some replied, "You are the noob, kid." and "LOL, Xyz's are NOT MONSTERS!." Instead of feeling shame, I thought: "I don't know that most of the so-called duelists here didn't know something as basic as that! *chuckles*"

A moment later I got confused and thought: "What if they were right?" I then searched the net about Xyz Monsters and it clearly states that Xyz Monsters are a type of Monsters summoned through Xyz Summoning. I also didn't saw any ruling that prevents the Xyz's from getting targeted as Monsters like Super Polymerization, Soul Exchange, Compulsory Evacuation Device, Bottomless Trap Hole, etc..

So, with just a simple common sense, I conclude that Xyz Monsters ARE Monsters, as they are called literally.

I posted this just to confirm that I'm not the noob one, but they are. Please comment your opinion. Thanks. 203.215.122.218 (talk) 07:21, June 8, 2013 (UTC)DoomBringer
