OCG Rulings
The activation of the card "Battle-Scarred" can be performed at any time, except during the Damage Step.: Battle-Scarred
When "Battle-Scarred" is activated it targets 1 face-up "Archfiend" monster in your Monster Zone.
The effect "Your opponent also pays the same Life Points that you pay for the selected monster during the Standby Phase" does not make a Chain Link. (If you pay LP during the Standby Phase for its maintenance cost, the opponent also pays those LP.)
The effect "If this card is removed from the field, destroy the selected monster" does not make a Chain Link. (It applies even during the Damage Step.)
The effect "When the selected monster is removed from the field, destroy this card" does not make a Chain Link. (It applies even during the Damage Step
If the Archfiend targeted by "Battle-Scarred" is flipped face-down, then the effect of "Battle-Scarred" disappears and "Battle-Scarred" remains on the field meaninglessly.
You can select an Archfiend that doesn't require you to pay Life Points as a target for "Battle-Scarred" (such as "Summoned Skull", "Archfiend Soldier", or "Fiend Skull Dragon").
When your opponent takes control of your Archfiend targeted by "Battle-Scarred", then your opponent must pay the cost for the Archfiend, and then pay the cost again because of "Battle-Scarred".
When an Archfiend is equipped with "Heart of Clear Water", it is not destroyed if it was targeted by "Battle-Scarred" and "Battle-Scarred" is removed from the field.
If your opponent doesn't have enough Life Points to pay for "Battle-Scarred", nothing happens to your opponent, you must still pay for the cost of your Archfiend, and "Battle-Scarred" remains on the field.
If "Battle-Scarred" and "Pandemonium" are both active, neither player has to pay for Archfiend costs or for "Battle-Scarred".
