Forum:Black Garden rulings

1. Can my opponent use maxx c against my black garden? Is it that it doesn't matter who summons, the token that is eventually special summoned to either field was summoned by me(since it is my black garden) and thus he draws? So he can technically draw 5 off maxx c just by flooding my field while he swarms? Also in the same way, would I be unable to maxx c off garden tokens since it is my garden even if tokens are summoned to his field?

2. How does black garden interact with no.30 acid golem? Example: I control black garden and acid golem. Does my opponent/me get a token whenever either of us summon? Curious if there is anything like summoning via player's choice vs summoning via forced card effect.

3. If anybody chains something like Bottomless Trap Hole/Torrential Tribute to black garden's effect upon summon thereby destroying the monster, will a token still be summoned?

4. If my opponent uses attack modifiers either chained to(excluding chaining stuff like forbidden lance) or separately after black garden, what happens during the end phase?

Example 1(Chain to garden): Opponent uses forbidden chalice on blue eyes. Attack is locked at 1.7k via garden. During EP, does it change to 1.3k or stay at 1.7k?

Example 2(After garden): Opponent uses forbidden lance on a 1.5k blue eyes. I recall black garden is lingering so I believe the attack goes to 700 rather than 2.2k? So during the EP would it return to 1.5k rather than 3k?

Example 3(Shrink, chain to garden): Does a blue eyes get halved twice since original attack is halved first then black garden when resolving backwards? During EP since black garden locked it would it permanently be stuck at 750?

Example 4(Shrink/megamorph etc, after garden): I recall reading these modifiers being unique since they relate to half/double rather than changing by a fixed value. So after use, the monster now follows the new modifier rather than black garden? Like using megamorph either gives me a 1.5k or 6k blue eyes no longer affected by black garden even if megamorph is removed later?

5. Compulsory Evacuation Device vs Book of Moon. Why is it that you can use CED but not BoM on a token monster? I figured in both cases the token won't be able to exist anyway so shouldn't BoM just kill the token? Or is this a BKSS ruling?

Hope this isn't asking too much, appreciate any help. Thanks! Renz0kuken (talk • contribs) 16:50, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
