Card Rulings:Guardian Ceal


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] "Guardian Baou", "Guardian Ceal", "Guardian Elma", "Guardian Grarl", "Guardian Kay'est", and "Guardian Tryce" all share some basic rules. Using "Guardian Elma" as an example:


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] You can Set "Guardian Elma" face-down without "Butterfly Dagger - Elma", but you cannot Special Summon her face-down with "The Shallow Grave", etc., unless you have "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" on your side of the field.


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] If your Set "Guardian Elma" is flipped face-up with "Swords of Revealing Light", or by an attack, without "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" on your side of the field, she remains on the field because she was not Summoned.


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] "Guardian Elma" is a normally Summoned monster, not a Special Summon-only monster. So if Normal Summoned she counts as your 1 Summon for the turn.


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] You cannot use "Monster Reborn" on "Guardian Elma" if you do not have "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" on your side of the field.


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] If you activate "Monster Reborn" and target "Guardian Elma" while you have "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" on the field, and your opponent chains "Mystical Space Typhoon" to destroy "Butterfly Dagger - Elma", so that it is no longer on the field when "Monster Reborn" resolves, you cannot Special Summon "Guardian Elma" and "Monster Reborn"'s effect disappears.


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] You can Normal Summon, Flip Summon, or Special Summon "Guardian Elma" even if your "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" has its effect negated by "Imperial Order".


 * [Group: GUARDIANS] If "Cyber Jar" resolves and you pick up "Guardian Elma" without "Butterfly Dagger - Elma" on your side of the field, "Guardian Elma" is added to your hand.

The Equip Spell Cards used for "Guardian Ceal"'s effect must be activated and equipped to "Guardian Ceal" by "Guardian Ceal"'s controller in order to be on that player's side of the field.
 * [Group: GUARDIANS] These rules apply to all six of these monsters.


 * Sending 1 Equip Spell Card equipped to "Guardian Ceal" to the Graveyard is a cost.


 * When you send "Big Bang Shot" to the Graveyard for "Guardian Ceal"'s effect, your opponent can chain to this effect, and then "Guardian Ceal" is removed from play.


 * [Re: Big Bang Shot] When equipped to "Guardian Ceal", if you send "Big Bang Shot" to the Graveyard as a cost for "Guardian Ceal"'s effect, "Guardian Ceal" is removed from play but "Guardian Ceal"'s effect still resolves.
