Forum:Legionnaire Aklys

I normal summon Dragunity Legionnaire and equipt it with Dragunity Aklys. I then send Aklys to the graveyard to destroy my opponent's monster (the only card on his field). He has Meklord Emperor Granel in his hand - can he special summon it at that point, or does Aklys's effect activate first, forcing me to destroy one of my cards. If the second option, can he then special summon the Emperor after Aklys's effect resolves?--S1L3N7 N1GH7S (talk • contribs) 22:12, February 14, 2012 (UTC)
