Card Trivia

 This card's artwork features someone picking up a die, even though a die roll is not part of this card's effect.
To note, the dice may represent the Level, and the die being picked up may be being turned to another face, thus modulating the Level.
This card can also be a reference to tabletop RPG. Most game systems encourage random character creation, where your abilities are determined by the roll of the die. However, if the player is inclined to do so, he may create his ideal character himself (represented by picking any LV monster without restrictions), but the Game Master will often hand out a penalty if he does (represented by the opponent drawing 2 cards).
This card appears in the artwork of Trap Request.
The Eye of Wdjat appears in this card's center, partially obscured by the dice

Previously Official Rulings


An "
LV" monster that normally cannot be Special Summoned except by the method in its text CANNOT be Special Summoned from the Graveyard with "Level Modulation" unless it has been previously Special Summoned by the correct procedure. The "ignore the Summoning conditions" text allows for these monsters to be Special Summoned only after they have been properly Summoned by their own effect. This applies to "Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV8", "Armed Dragon LV7", "Silent Swordsman LV7", "Silent Magician LV8", and "Winged Kuriboh LV10".

You cannot activate "Level Modulation" if the opponent has 1 or less card in their Deck, or if you have "Protector of the Sanctuary" on the field.

Even Continuous Effects on the Special Summoned Monster, like "Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV6", are not applied during the turn this card is used to Special Summon that monster.

If the monster Special Summoned by this card's effect is flipped face-down, then the restrictions of "Level Modulation" are no longer applied. If you flip it face-up again, it can attack and its effects are applied.
