Q&A Rulings

• Q: There are 2 copies of "Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon" and 1 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" in my hand. In this situation, can I activate "Polymerization" and Fusion Summon a "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon"?

A: The materials required to Fusion Summon "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" are 3 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon"s. In this scenario, the effect of "Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon" that treats it as "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" is not applied while it is in your hand. Since you do not have 3 "Blue-Eyes White Dragon"s in your hand to use as materials, you cannot Fusion Summon "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" with "Polymerization".^{[2] [3]}

• Q: There are 3 copies of "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" in my GY, which include a "Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon" whose name is treated as "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" by its own effect. In this situation, I activate "Necro Fusion", and Fusion Summon "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" by banishing those 3 monsters face-down. When activating the effect of that "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" that was Fusion Summoned this way, can target 2 or 3 of my opponent's cards?

A: In this scenario, even if "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" was Fusion Summoned by the effect of "Necro Fusion" and the materials were banished face-down, it was Fusion Summoned using a monster whose original name is "Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon". Therefore, when activating its effect, you can target 2 or 3 of your opponent's cards to destroy.^{[4] [3]}

• Q: I activate the effect of "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon", targeting 3 monsters on my opponent's field. If my opponent chains "Compulsory Evacuation Device" and returns 1 of the targeted monsters to the hand, how does the effect of "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" resolve?

A: In this scenario, even if one of the cards targeted by the effect "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" is no longer on the field when the effect resolves, any remaining targeted cards are destroyed normally. (This card cannot attack during this turn as usual.)^{[5] [3]}

• Q: This turn, I activated the effect of "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" and destroyed an opponent's card. During the same turn, if I activate "Book of Moon" and change that "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" to face-down Defense Position, then flip it face-up again, can it attack this turn?

A: In this scenario, if a "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" that activated its effect is changed to face-down Defense Position, then flipped face-up again, it will be able to attack that turn.^{[6] [7]}

• Q: When I declare an attack with "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon", the attack is negated by the effect of my opponent's "Necro Gardna". During Main Phase 2 of that turn, can I activate the effect of "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon"?

A: In this scenario, "Blue-Eyes Alternative Ultimate Dragon" declared an attack, and even though the attack was negated, its effect cannot be activated during Main Phase 2 of the same turn.^{[8] [7]}
