    This is why I like the madolche continuous spells since they're mandatory effects. Every time I forget to resolve salon I can just go back. Its like playing with training wheels on.

      If you missed, you missed. If you are at a tournament and go back just for resolving it after the game state isn't repairable again you will get a warning. And that's totally ok, I think. If yugioh players would read their cards, they would know what to do and when things happen :)

    I lost a crucial game in a regional when Anthony declared what I did (physically) overrides what I said (verbally) when it comes to committing to a play. I put a spell on the field in the same column as infinite impermanence was previously activated by my opponent, and before letting the card go, slid it to an adjacent column stating clearly, "in this column." It wasn't like he said the effect was negated then i moved it. I just kinda put the card on the table as i would back when columns didn't matter and assessed the board state before declaring and finalizing my commitment. My opponent called a judge immediately who said I was incorrect about verbal statements overriding physical actions. I request a head judge and Anthony said physical actions override statements. I showed the initial judge the official rule stating I was correct between rounds and he apologized but said its too late now and that must be a new update.

      Funnily enough, this isn't even a matter of that in the first place. I mean, it is, but the more pressing issue is you did not take your hand off of the card in the Imperm column which means you did not commit to the play, a separate part of the policy document.

    I feel like the “Locals” Example is based on how the Pokemon TCG works. With trainer cards, even if you don’t have a legal target in deck or even if you do, you can still activate the card and it’ll go to the discard pile. For lack of a better term, you can make your card fizzle.

    I've had something like this come up: Opponent summons Aleister, activates effect. I let it go, opponent looks through deck and says they just realized they have no more copies of invocation in deck.
    In my opinion, this is a big issue because if I had a hand trap to negate, I would have definitely used in on the Aleister and the illegal play would have gone unnoticed. Would it be rule sharking to call a judge there?

    • @gyro13
      @gyro13 4 роки тому +8

      I’ve been thinking a lot about this too. It should be the player’s responsibility to check the banish zone, graveyard, field and hand to see if there are any more copies of the card. If an opponent activates Aleister blindly, knowing there might not be any copies left in the deck, it should be considered cheating.

    • @irismarin8613

      Agree with the first comment... You can't just activate a card or effect if you can't resolve it properly. EVERYBODY needs to know how many copies of a card is in their decks. You will definitely get a warning for that. If it happens again, game loss. It is not that difficult to remember those few cards and ratios in a deck. Like you said, you could've activated something in response which he/she then would know about to play around properly afterwards. Definitely an illegal play which I cannot understand. Just play something else if you don't know your deck XD

      @@epicfreak7532 While I agree that you should know every card in your Main Deck at all points, I do myself forget sometimes what I sided out games 2 and 3 and I would not expect someone in a tournament setting to always remember what exactly they sided out.
      Given the example with Aleister, if you play 3 Invocation it's not unreasonable to side 1 out going 2nd and by turn 3 having cycled enough cards and played enough Yu-Gi-Oh! that you've basically forgotten your side plan for the game.
      Yes, even then this is a terrible thing to happen, I agree, but after siding penalizing players for not remembering all the ratios seems harsh.
      Easier way to resolve this would be to revert back to the MR1 ruling on searching effects (these effects can be activated without legal targets which will resolve in the deck being shuffled). This would have downsides, but you wouldn't need to penalize plays like this if they were legal.

    I am late to the party but I feel, even though this video is really helpful to be able to distinguish what is legal or not in a tournament, I think there should be an extra distinction for call that are legals but that are absolutely obnoxious and anti fair play.
    I feel if an opponent tested your responses to one of his plays you can't let him take back. But sometimes it is clear the other guy realises his mistakes as soon as he does it (like attacking a monster with an attack boost without realising the boost) and tries to take it back, it should be in the spirit of the game to let him take back. I understand there are some stakes in big tournaments but we are still playing a card game and being fair play in those kind of situations should be what we, as a community, tend to.
    Especially when we are playing against a visibly disoriented/new player.
    As always there is the law and the sense of the law. If your opponent action could be a malicious attempt at cheating or come from a lack of calculations sure shark. But if not, don't be that guy.

      Speaking as a judge myself, I don't exactly have the ruling on marking the zone but I'd rule you're absolutely allowed to double check with your opponent as far as which s/t zone they negated via the effect of Imperm. That sort of thing falls into public knowledge, and god knows how many misplays could be solved if more people slowed down to check that.

    • @BlazingGear
      @BlazingGear 4 роки тому +1

      You are allowed to ask your opponent as that is public knowledge and he must answer you, for that turn only.
      You cannot use marking or any method to keep track of the cards or effects. That means you cannot do thing such as placing a dice on a continuous spell card after it have used its OPT effect, or on a monster like Salamangreat Sunlight Wolf to indicate whether it was reincarnated or not.

    Ok just looking for an answer, with the new Sacred Beast cards if I activate opening of the spirit gates and I have no cards in graveyard (or any valid "target" , even though it doesnt target) to summon off of the discard and revive effect, I CANNOT discard dark summoning beast to then summon it back?

I thought you at least had to have a valid monster in the grave to revive the discarded card (in this case dark summoning beast).

    This will probably never get seen but, how about with a card like metaverse. The opponent activates metaverse, then adds the field spell to their hand. Immediately after adding it to their hand, they activate it. Is it sharking to tell your opponent "no, you added it to your hand already", considering metaverse says you can activate it OR add it to your hand? My thought is, what is the point of the text being written that way if it is not allowed to be upheld? This may be a silly one. Also, when this is happening on something like duelingbook, how do you determine a misplay vs a misclick for this particular case?
    Similar, but not the same, as using imperm on dueling book. Someone will activate a spell card in a column that imperm was activated in, then as soon as they realize it, they will claim it was a misclick. At what point does this become sharking if at all?

    So Rota comes back to my hand if i activated it with 0 warriors in my deck. But my question is: What's with one for one? Let's say i sent a monster with a quickeffect to the gy, i chained the monster' eff to the one for one, resolved it and then i realize: oh w8... i don't have any lvl 1s in my deck. (excluding the case that my quickeffect did something with a lvl1 in my deck that was there the time i activated one for one). So the main question here is: When is an action considered as "no longer repairable"? I mean: i assume, that if i just dumped a card without a quickeff and nothing was chained to my one for one, i can just take the one for one and the other card back to my hand.But I am very often confused by the word "repairable" mistake...

      No, because it only summons itself from hand (on the next chain link) if it meets the specific trigger condition of a Salamangreat going to the GY, so if you forgot to activate it on the very next chain link when you meant to do so, you cannot try to activate it late, and you must then wait until you meet those conditions again in a different moment in that turn.

      "If" effects are still trigger effects. They must be actives in the next chain after their trigger is met, or they cannot activate. The difference between "if" and "when" is that "if" effects can activate if their trigger was met at any point in the previous chain, while "when" effects can only activate if their trigger was the very last action to happen in the previous chain.

    One situation I had to deal with: I was about to win in game 3. The opponent had no clue how to play their own deck properly and I out-resourced them. Then somebody from two tables away(playing the exact same deck build), LEANED OVER BOTH tables and said “Why didn’t you do {this}?” The opponent then realizes what the ‘coach’ was talking about and then immediately “I’d like to do {this}. I have a response.”
    The “judge” sitting right next to me face-palms himself and just says “It’s accepted game-state.” Not the head judge, mind you.
    I then lost because of the outside influence and the advantage gained from it.
    Was there anything I could have done in this situation? Is there anything in the Tournament Policy Document that directly refers to coaching, or would I have been at risk for “sharking”?

    • @DistantCoder
      @DistantCoder  4 роки тому +5

      That was 100% coaching. If the judge said "accepted gamestate" then A the judge hasn't read policy documents and B the judge doesn't know what an accepted gamestate is. You should have appealed to the Head Judge as Coaching is not allowed in official tournaments.

      I think this gets left up to the reasonability test. For example, if you activate it, and specifically wait for them to declare a response (or in this case tell you that it's negated by imperm) you can't take it back or move it just because you left your fingers on it. If you move it before asking for a response or having your opponent verify the action in any way, then I would assume that's ok. I am not a judge though, so take this answer with a grain of salt

      Your opponent is not sharking you. You should read more carefully of Update Jammer's effect.
      Update Jammer's 2nd effect is an optional trigger effect, it is not mandatory (its effect said "If this card is sent to the GY as Link Material: That Link Monster 'CAN' make a second attack during each Battle Phase this turn."). Therefore if you did not or forgot to declare that you would activate Update Jammer's effect when it was sent to the GY as link material for Accesscode Talker, your Accesscode Talker indeed cannot make a second attack like your opponent said.

      A mandatory trigger effect has to be placed in the chain before optional trigger effect. If you have ever tried making Accesscode Talker with Jammer in ygopro, you will realize that you can actually place Jammer's effect as chain link 2 or simply choose not to activate it, which would not be possible if it was a mandatory trigger effect.
