OCG Rulings[]
- "This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by removing 2 WATER monsters in your Graveyard from play." is not treated as an effect. It is a procedure to Special Summon a Special Summon Monster. (Banishing 2 WATER monsters and Special Summoning this card are not considered to happen simultaneously.)[1]
- After "Fenrir" is Special Summoned, if it is sent to the Graveyard, it can be Special Summoned with "Monster Reborn".[1]
- The " When this card destroys an opponent's monster as a result of battle, your opponent skips his/her next Draw Phase." effect is a Trigger Effect. (It does not target. It activates at the end of the Damage Step.)[1]
- If "Fenrir" battles a monster with the same ATK and both monsters are destroyed by battle, this effect cannot be activated.[1]
- If "Fenrir" attacks a face-down "Man-Eater Bug", "Old Vindictive Magician" or "Night Assailant", even if those monsters are considered to be destroyed by battle during damage calculation, since "Fenrir" was destroyed by the effect of those monsters, the effect of "Fenrir" cannot be activated.[2]
- The effect of "D.D. Assailant" activates after damage calculation and the effect of "Fenrir" activates at the end of the Damage Step. If "Fenrir" destroys "D.D. Assailant" by battle, the effect of "D.D. Assailant" activates after damage calculation and both monsters are banished. Since "Fenrir" is no longer on the field at the end of the Damage Step, its effect cannot be activated.[3]
Previously Official Rulings[]
These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been deemed unofficial by Konami.[4] 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.
