Forum:Lunima and Empty Graveyard

Just curious... as in situation I had against Twilight (combine of Lightsworn and random Darkness cards, such as Plaguespreader and Dark Armed Dragon) player. He objected that I cannot do the Lumina, Lightsworn Summoner's effect due to my first turn with no cards in graveyard.

I got the hand; Lumina, Garoth, Solar, Sabre, and Recharge, drew Black Shiny "C". So I summoned Lumina as opening playing, used her effect to discard Garoth from my hand then special summon him from graveyard soon afterward.

Now that's where he was not happy, he told me that Lumina required target first to activate her effect. And I have hearing from you all say that she didn't, since of compare to Zombie Master's effect. Z-Master required a target first while Lumina required "Discard" first.

Is that more correct pattern;
 * I should have at least 1 target Lightsworn Monster in graveyard before I discarded for Lumina's effect
 * I can just discard card to special summon Lightsworn that come out of nowhere

Thanks for reading. I just need to clear my pattern in correct pace. --FredCat100 20:54, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
