Which takes priority first.

Brain Control of My monster after my oppentent attcks me, returning it to my field

or Ectoplasmer-ing my monster he took from me?

Which would resolve first?
 * Turn player has priority. He can choose to resolve the effect of "Brain Control" or "Ectoplasmer" first. Danny Lilithborne 08:22, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


 * It depends on who controls "Ectoplasmer". If your opponent does, he can choose which resolves first.  If you control it, your opponent can choose to resolve "Brain Control" or pass to you.  You can then decide to resolve "Ectoplasmer" or pass to your opponent.  Your opponent must then resolve "Brain Control" and return control to you.  After that, you resolve "Ectoplasmer" and your opponent Tributes a monster (if he still has one).  --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 01:23, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

There are no passes. In this case you have "Simultaneous Effects Go On Chain". With SEGOC's rules, turn player's "Brain Control" resolves first as Turn Player's Mandatory Effect, and then "Ectoplasmer"s effect takes place as Opponent's Mandatory Effect. --ATEMVEGETA 04:09, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

SORRY. "Ectoplasmer" resolves first as chain link 2 and then "Brain Control" as chain link 1.--ATEMVEGETA 04:31, 2 Octomber 2008 (UTC)


 * No. Both effects resolve at the end of the End Phase, so they resolve separately.  SEGOC is only applied when two effects have the same Trigger, and "at the end of the End Phase" isn't a Trigger.


 * It's similar to how "Gladiator Beast" monsters' effects don't form a chain when multiple ones use their tag-out effect.


 * Besides, "Brain Control"'s effect ending doesn't use a chain, so how can it go on chain?

Just take a look at SEGOC carefully and you will understand. Besides "brain control" is a lingering effect and activates at the end phase. Also, at SEGOC's page it prefers it. Also neither card says "at the end of the end phase".
