Forum:Mbaas vs compulsory e.d

Yesterday, me and a friend who's using gladiator beasts were dueling. I attacked his face down monster with my Pyramid Turtle and since it was a gladiator beast he tagged it out for Gladiator Beast Murmillo at the end of the battle phase. I chained My Body as a Shield to the effect of his murmillo and he chained Compulsory Evacuation Device to my My Body as a Shield targeting my Pyramid turtle. How would the chain resolve? Would my MBaaS still negate and destroy his murmillo or would Compulsory e.d make MBaaS resolve without an effect since Pyramid Turtle is no longer face up on the field and MBaaS specifically says that it negates an effect that would destroy 1 or more monster(s) on the field? We agreed that MBaaS probably still negated and destroyed murmillo and that MBaaS likely only cared about the monster being face up on activation but since none of us were 100% sure we figured it'd be a good idea to ask here.

Also, if I had chained Book of Moon to murmillos effect and targeted my own pyramid turtle, would that have saved Pyramid Turtle since murmillos text says that he destroy a monster that is face up on the field? Or will murmillo still destroy my monster as long as it was face up when it was targeted with murmillos effect? Flesk 15:49, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
