Forum:Skill Drain questions

I have an old 'just for fun' deck that I use when I play against my friends. It uses Skill Drain as a base, and I have a few questions about certain monsters I use with Skill Drain.

1) The Fiend Megacyber - Can this monster still be special summoned from your hand with Skill Drain activated on the field?

2) Fusilier Dragon, the Dual-Mode Beast - If I normal summon this monster without tribute, and Skill Drain is activated, is the ATK/DEF halved as the effect says?

3) Despair from the Dark - Since this monster is not on the field when it's effect is activated, even if Skill Drain is active, can it still be Special Summoned to the field from the Graveyard.

4) Moisture Creature - This one has been the biggest topic of discussion. I have been told that the effect of this monster implies that ANY 3 monsters on the field can be used for tribute - including my opponents monsters. I don't believe this to be true, but I would like confirmation about it. Also, if Skill Drain is active and this monster is summoned using its effect, Magic and Trap cards on the opponents side of the field are not destroyed, correct?

Thanks for the help, 64.223.97.233 13:23, February 20, 2010 (UTC)MeM
