Forum:Elemental Hero Fusion Summon - Query

Hey there all, so I'm new to playing Yu-gi-oh mostly.. I´ve played some on the DS games but only recently to the actual card game, and I've decided to try going down the elemental hero route. (and a bit samurai too but that's mostly until I have more e. hero cards! anyway nevermind all that)

I'm wondering with a couple of the elemental fusion cards, for example, Elemental Hero Flare Neos, sorry I don't know how to link them to the post.. Because it says it is a special summon, can it be summoned in defense position?

Or are fusion cards always ALWAYS summoned in attack position no matter what?

Thanks guys n gals!
