Card Rulings:Elder Entity Norden

OCG Rulings

 * The "When this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it, but its effects are negated. When this card leaves the field, banish that target." effect is a Trigger Effect. (This effect targets 1 monster in your Graveyard. Also it keep targeting that monster afterwards. It can be activated during the Damage Step.)


 * This effect can be activated even if this card is Special Summoned by a method other than Fusion Summon.


 * Special Summoning the targeted monster is considered the last thing to happen. Applying "When this card leaves the field, banish that target." does not start a Chain Link.


 * This effect cannot be activated if this card was Special Summoned as a Chain Link 2 or higher.


 * While you control "Photon Thrasher", "Elder God Noden" and a "Thunder King Rai-Oh" that was Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden", if "Photon Thrasher" and "Elder God Noden" are used as Xyz Materials, "Thunder King Rai-Oh" remains on the Monster Zone. It is not banished, but its effects remains negated.


 * If the Level 4 or lower monster that was Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden" is changed to face-down Defense Position by "Book of Moon", the effect of that monster is no longer negated. It is no longer targeted by "Elder God Noden" and the "When this card leaves the field, banish that target." is no longer applied.


 * If "Summoner Monk" is Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden", then "Skill Drain" is activated and "Elder God Noden" is destroyed, "Summoner Monk" remains on the field with its effect negated. (If "Skill Drain" is destroyed after that, the effect of "Summoner Monk" remains negated.)


 * The monster Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden" is Special Summoned with its effects negated. Even if "Elder God Noden" leaves the field, the effect remains negated. Therefore, if "Armageddon Knight" activates its effect after being Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden" and "Compulsory Evacuation Device" is activated in a chain, targeting "Elder God Noden", the effect of "Armageddon Knight" will be negated. (Since "Elder God Noden" is no longer on the field, "Armageddon Knight" is banished.)


 * If the monster Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden" and "Elder God Noden" are destroyed simultaneously by "Torrential Tribute", the monster that was Special Summoned by "Elder God Noden" is not banished, and is sent to the Graveyard normally.


 * This card can be Fusion Summoned with "Miracle Synchro Fusion". In this case, you must have at least 1 Synchro Monster in your Graveyard or your side of the field to perform the Fusion Summon. Therefore, if you Fusion Summon "Elder God Noden" with "Miracle Synchro Fusion", you can use either 2 Synchro Monsters or 1 Synchro Monster and 1 Xyz Monster. (You cannot Fusion Summon "Elder God Noden" with "Miracle Synchro Fusion" using 2 Xyz Monsters.)


 * This card cannot be Fusion Summoned using "King of the Swamp" as a Fusion Material.


 * This card can be Special Summoned from the Extra Deck with "Instant Fusion" or "Cyber Stein". After this card is Special Summoned by "Instant Fusion", since this Special Summon is treated as a Fusion Summon, if this card is sent to the Graveyard, it can be Special Summoned by a card effect like "Monster Reborn". (After this card is Special Summoned by "Cyber Stein", if this card is sent to the Graveyard, it cannot be Special Summoned by a card effect like "Monster Reborn")


 * This card can be Fusion Summoned using 2 Synchro Monsters, 2 Xyz Monsters or 1 Xyz Monster and 1 Synchro Monster.
