*When 1 "[[Light and Darkness Dragon]]" and 1 "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" are on the field, if a Spell/Trap Card is activated, then "[[Light and Darkness Dragon]]" will be Chain Link 2, and "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" will be Chain Link 3. The effect of "[[Light and Darkness Dragon]]" can only be activated once per [[Chain]], so "[[Light and Darkness Dragon]]" will not try to negate "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]".<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=6351&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: How do you resolve it when "Light and Darkness Dragon" and "Doomcaliber Knight" are both on the field?</ref>
⚫
*If "[[Kuriboh]]'s" effect is activated to negate the [[Battle Damage]] from "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]", "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is Tributed to negate "[[Kuriboh]]'s" effect. Damage has already been calculated, so if "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" was attacking a monster with equal or lower ATK that monster will be destroyed, and Battle Damage will be inflicted as normal.<ref name="JL"/>
  
   
  ⚫
*When you Summon a monster with a [[Continuous Effect]] like the effect of "[[Jinzo]]"/"[[Perfect Machine King]]"/"[[Spell Canceller]]"/"[[Muka Muka]]"/"[[Star Boy]]", its effect does not start a [[Chain Link]], so you cannot chain "[[Divine Wrath]]"/"[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" to negate the effect. In addition, the effect of "[[Jinzo]]" is already being applied, so "[[Divine Wrath]]" cannot be activated.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=6399&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: When a Continuous Effect Monster comes to the field, can "Divine Wrath" be activated?</ref>
⚫
*If "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect activates while "[[Skill Drain]]" is face-up on the field, its effect is not negated because it is not on the field when its effect [[resolve]]s.<ref name="JL"/>
  
   
  ⚫
*"[[Divine Wrath]]"/"[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" can/will be chained to effects which activate in the Graveyard like "[[Sangan]]"/"[[Witch of the Black Forest]]"/"[[Giant Rat]]", and will negate them. However, the monster is already in the Graveyard, so it will not be destroyed.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=6415&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: Can "Divine Wrath" or "Doomcaliber Knight" negate effects which activate in the Graveyard?</ref>
⚫
*If "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is destroyed by battle and an Effect Monster's effect activates after [[damage calculation]] ("[[D.D. Warrior Lady]]", etc.), "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect still activates.<ref name="JL"/>
  
   
  ⚫
*When "[[Sangan]]" is Tributed to Tribute Summon "[[Mobius the Frost Monarch]]" while "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is on the field, "[[Sangan]]" is Chain Link 1 (because it is mandatory) and "[[Mobius the Frost Monarch]]" is Chain Link 2 (because it is optional). The effect of "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" will then activate as Chain Link 3. When resolving the effect, "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" will negate the effect of "[[Mobius the Frost Monarch]]", and then "[[Sangan]]" will resolve normally.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=8183&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: When "Sangan" is Tributed to Tribute Summon "Mobius the Frost Monarch" while "Doomcaliber Knight" is on the field, how do you resolve it?</ref>
⚫
*If an Effect Monster's effect is activated while multiple "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]s" are face-up on the field, they all [[activate]] and are [[Tribute]]d. Their effects are chained following the rules for [[SEGOC|simultaneous effects]] (see the Advanced Rulings FAQ). Only the last "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" to resolve will be applied, and the effects of the other "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]s" disappear.
  
⚫
**Example: Player A controls 2 "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]s". Player B activates an Effect Monster's effect. Both of Player A's "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" activate and form a Chain:<ul>Effect Monster --> [[Doomcaliber Knight]] A --> [[Doomcaliber Knight]] B</ul>Only [[Doomcaliber Knight]] A negates the Effect Monster's effect.<ref name="JL"/>
  
   
  ⚫
*If the effect of "[[Bujingi Crane]]" is activated during [[damage calculation]] when "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" battles and the effect of "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is chained to the effect of "[[Bujingi Crane]]", Tributing itself, then [[damage calculation]] is not performed and the [[Damage Step]] ends. A replay does not occur.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=9132&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: Is damage calculation performed if "Bujingi Crane" is activated during damage calculation when "Doomcaliber Knight" battles?</ref>
⚫
*When multiple Effect Monster effects activate simultaneously, "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect is chained after determining the order of the Effect Monster effects (see the [[SEGOC|Advanced Rulings FAQ "Simultaneous Effects"]]) and will negate the Effect Monster's effect that was placed last on the Chain.<ref name="JL"/>
  
⚫
**Example 1: Player A Tributes her "[[Sangan]]" and "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]" to Tribute Summon "[[Dark Magician]]". "[[Sangan]]'s" effect is Chain Link 1 and "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]'s" effect is Chain Link 2. The effect of Player B's "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is chained, and it will negate "[[Witch of the Black Forest]]'s" effect.<ref name="JL"/>
  
⚫
**Example 2: Player A and Player B have "[[Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World]]" in their hand and Player A controls "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]". Player A activates "[[Card Destruction]]". When both copies of "[[Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World]]" are discarded, their effects start a Chain. Player A is the turn player, so his "[[Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World]]" is Chain Link 1 and Player B's is Chain Link 2. "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect is chained, and it will negate Player B's "[[Goldd, Wu-Lord of Dark World]]".<ref name="JL"/>
  
⚫
**<s>Example 3: Player A's "[[Giant Rat]]" is destroyed in battle and sent to the Graveyard while she has "[[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]" in her hand and "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is face-up on the field. Player A can activate "[[Giant Rat]]" and/or "[[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]'s" effect. If she activates both effects, she chooses the order the effects are placed onto the Chain, and "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" will negate the effect that is placed highest on the Chain. If "[[Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest]]" is Chain Link 1 and "[[Giant Rat]]" is Chain Link 2, "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" will negate "[[Giant Rat]]".<ref name="JL"/></s>
  
⚫
**Example 4: If "[[Sangan]]" is Tributed to Tribute Summon "[[Raiza the Storm Monarch]]" while "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is face-up on the field, "[[Sangan]]'s" effect is Chain Link 1 and "[[Raiza the Storm Monarch]]'s" effect is Chain Link 2. "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect is chained, negating "[[Raiza the Storm Monarch]]'s" effect and destroying it.<ref name="JL"/>
  
⚫
**Example 5: Player A's "[[Sasuke Samurai 4|Sasuke Samurai #4]]" attacks Player B's "[[Neo-Spacian Grand Mole]]" while "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" is face-up on the field. "[[Sasuke Samurai 4|Sasuke Samurai #4]]'s" effect is Chain Link 1 and "[[Neo-Spacian Grand Mole]]" is Chain Link 2. "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect is chained, and it will negate and destroy "[[Neo-Spacian Grand Mole]]".<ref name="JL"/>
  
   
  +
*Even if the activation of the effect of "[[Snapdragon]]" is negated by "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]", you cannot activate the effect of another "[[Snapdragon]]" during the same turn.<ref>[http://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/faq_search.action?ope=5&fid=10795&request_locale=ja Konami OCG Card Database]: If the activation of the effect of "Snapdragon" is negated by "Doomcaliber Knight", can the effect of another "Snapdragon" be activated on the same turn?</ref>
⚫
*If an Effect Monster's effect that is not optional activates, even if it would not do anything when it resolves, it will still be negated by "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]".<ref name="JL"/>
  
⚫
**Example: Player A's face-down "[[Magician of Faith]]" is attacked by Player B's "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" while Player A has no Spell Cards in his Graveyard. "[[Magician of Faith]]'s" [[Flip Effect]] activates and "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect activates in a Chain to it.<ref name="JL"/>

*If your "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]" attacks an Effect Monster with a non-continuous effect and destroys it while you control "[[Dark Ruler Ha Des]]", when the Effect Monster's effect activates "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]'s" effect is still chained.<ref name="JL"/>
  
  ⚫
*When the effect of "[[Yubel]]" activates during the End Phase, if "[[Divine Wrath]]" is chained to negate the effect of and destroy "[[Yubel]]", then the timing is "''"[[Yubel]]" was destroyed''". Because of this, you can activate the effect of "[[Yubel]]" to Special Summon "[[Yubel - Terror Incarnate]]". Similarly, when the effect of "[[Yubel - Terror Incarnate]]" activates during the End Phase, if "[[Divine Wrath]]" is chained to negate the effect of and destroy "[[Yubel - Terror Incarnate]]", then the timing is "''"[[Yubel - Terror Incarnate]]" was destroyed''".

Mentions in Other Rulings

Previously Official Rulings

Ambox notice These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been deemed unofficial by Konami.[9] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

Notes

  1. ↑ The latest print of "Kuriboh" has Problem-Solving Card Text which states that its effect is activated at damage calculation. As per the latest Damage Step rules, damage has not been calculated at this time, making this ruling invalid.
  2. ↑ The latest errata of "Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest" states that it cannot be activated during the Damage Step. This makes "Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest" an invalid example for this ruling.
