1) What happens when you have Skill Drain on the field, your opponent summons Zaborg the Thunder Monarch and you activate
Bottomless Trap Hole as response - You have a monster on your side of the field.
1st Zaborg is summoned and its effect activates. You BTH it - It is removed from play.
As it is no more on the field so Skill Drain Does not negate it - Skill Drain has nothing to do with activation it effects the effect and not the activation.
AS monarchs effect can resolve even if they are not on the field the monster is destroyed.
2) If you activate Book Of Moon as a chain to a Monarch's effect what happens?
Monarch's need not be face up for its effect to resolve - Priority comes into picture.
3) What happens if you target Spirit Reaper with Book of Moon?
Spirit Reaper's effect activates after its targeted card's effect resolves - BKSS. AS it is face down after BoM resolves its effect its negated.
4) If Zombie Master's effect is activated (cost has been payed) and you Book of Moon it. What happens?
Zombie Master needs to be face up on the field for its effect to resolve - Its an exception to priority - So effect does not activate.
5) What is the difference between these 2 cases.
I have Light and Darkness Dragon - My Opponent plays fissure and chain Book Of Moon to LADD's effect
LADD is a quick effect but its an exception to one specialty of Quick effects. It effect can activate only once in a chain - so it negates fissure but does not negate BoM and is flipped face down.
When its flipped face up it gets its original 2800 ATK.
I have Horus LV 8 - My Opponent plays fissure and chain Book Of Moon to Horus's effect
Its has a normal quick effect and can be used more than once in a chain and negates both Fissure and BoM.
6) Does Skill Drain negate DoomCalliber Knight's effect?
Skill Drain does negates the effect and not the cost or activation. And when DoomCalliber pays its cost it is no more on the field so SD does not negate it.
7) Does NecroValley negate Dark World monsters?
NecroValley does not negate effects that activate when in the grave and as DW monster's effect activates when its sent to the grave from the hand its effect is not negated.
8. What happens when you have LADD and your opponent uses Treeborn Frog's effect.
Frog is summoned during the same SP and LADD keeps negating it until it does not have the ability to loose the LP required to negate. LADD ends up with 300 LP.
9) Does Skill Drain negate Jinzo or vice versa?
If SD is already active Jinzo's effect is negated. If Jinzo is summoned first its effect does not allow SD to activate.
10) Does DoomCalliber Knight negate
- Cyber Dragon
Cyber Dragon is an inherent special summon which does not start a chain - So Doom does not negate it.
- Wildheart
It has a continuous effect so Doom does not negate it.
11) Can a Penguin Soldier target itself? Explain where it can return itself to the hand and when it can't and why.
Yes Penguin soldier can target is itself usually.
But when the BP is designed in such a way that Destroying occurs before flipping so when Penguin flips its already destroyed so it cannot target itself.
