* '''[[Card Rulings:Grandmaster of the Six Samurai|Grandmaster of the Six Samurai]]''': If "[[Grandmaster of the Six Samurai]]" is destroyed simultaneously with other "[[Six Samurai]]" monsters by an effect like "[[Dark Hole]]", the effect of "[[Grandmaster of the Six Samurai]]" activates and adds 1 "Six Samurai" monster that is currently in the Graveyard to the hand. This does include the "[[Grandmaster of the Six Samurai]]" and the other "Six Samurai" monsters that were destroyed by "[[Dark Hole]]".<ref>[https://tcg.konami-europe.com/judgeforum/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=414&sid=3ba953a1baaa2df43fb7f36589b12e10 Konami Judge Program Forum]: DARK HOLE vs. GRANDMASTER - KIZAN -YAICHI!!!!</ref>

* '''[[Card Rulings:Scrap Dragon|Scrap Dragon]]''': In order for the 2nd effect of "[[Scrap Dragon]]" to activate, you must be both the owner and controller of the card when it is sent to the Graveyard.
  +
** Example: If Player A has a "[[Scrap Dragon]]" in their [[Graveyard]] and Player B [[Special Summon]]s it to their side of the field with an effect like "[[Monster Reborn]]". If "[[Scrap Dragon]]" is destroyed by a Player B's effect (like "[[Dark Hole]]", "[[Torrential Tribute]]", etc), then since Player B is not the owner of "[[Scrap Dragon]]", neither player will be able to activate the effect of "[[Scrap Dragon]]" when it is sent to the Graveyard.<ref>[https://tcg.konami-europe.com/judgeforum/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=74&sid=81e92f0f6d154bdb1f2f6345d66b0c5d Konami Judge Program Forum]: Scrap Dragon taken by oponnent and destroyed by his card</ref>
  +
  +
* '''[[Card Rulings:Starlight Road|Starlight Road]]''': You can only activate '''[[Starlight Road]]''' if the effect that is activated will destroy 2 or more cards you control (per the card text). Even though '''[[Dark Hole]]''' has the potential to destroy up to 5 cards you control, if it is only destroying 1, you cannot activate '''[[Starlight Road]]'''.<ref>[https://tcg.konami-europe.com/judgeforum/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=865&sid=af8d3b9e96afcb47a74d52c92d4c7983 Konami Judge Program Forum]: starlight road v heavy/torrential/dark hole+</ref>

TCG Rulings

Mentions in Other Rulings

Judge Program Forum Rulings

  • Starlight Road: You can only activate Starlight Road if the effect that is activated will destroy 2 or more cards you control (per the card text). Even though Dark Hole has the potential to destroy up to 5 cards you control, if it is only destroying 1, you cannot activate Starlight Road.[3]

OCG Rulings

  • You cannot activate a card if it would do nothing. For example, you cannot activate "Dark Hole" if there are no monsters on the field.[4][5]
  • If multiple cards are sent to the Graveyard simultaneously, then the player can choose the order in which those cards are placed in the Graveyard. If "Dark Hole"/"Painful Choice"/etc send multiple cards to the Graveyard, then after you sent the cards to the Graveyard, "Dark Hole" is sent to the Graveyard last.[6]

Mentions in Other Rulings

  • Sangan: If each player has a "Sangan" sent to the Graveyard simultaneously by "Dark Hole" etc, the two form a Chain and you resolve backwards. The Turn Player's "Sangan" is Chain Link 1, and the opponent's is Chain Link 2. If each player has four pieces of "Exodia" in his hand, then Chain Link 2 resolves first and the opponent is declared the winner before Chain Link 1 resolves.[11]
