TCG Rulings



You can Normal Summon this monster.: Stardust Overdrive Sneak Peek -- Card Rulings (Version 1.0)

The effect to add a Fairy-Type monster to your hand targets 1 Fairy-Type monster in your Graveyard.

If "Archlord Kristya" is sent to the Graveyard face-down, its effect to return to the top of the Deck is not applied.

If "Macro Cosmos" is active and your face-up "Archlord Kristya" would be sent from the field to the Graveyard, it will still return to the top of the owner's Deck.

If "Archlord Kristya" is destroyed by battle while "Grave Protector" is face-up on the field the effect of "Grave Protector" will apply and Kristya will be shuffled back into the Deck.

If "Archlord Kristya" is destroyed by battle with "Dark Magician of Chaos" it will be removed from play instead of returning to the Deck.

If "Skill Drain" is active, the effect to return "Archlord Kristya" to the Deck will not apply.
