Forum:Bee List Soldier question...

My opponent has Skill Drain on the field. I have Aztekipede, the Worm Warrior, along with three other Insects on my field. If I can draw Trap Stun or MST, I have game (stupid Gravity Bind). Can I activate Bee List Soldier's effect while Skill Drain is face-up? I would assume so, because tributing it is a cost, and Skill Drain can't negate effects that activate in the grave. 04:42, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
