Card Rulings¶

The Ⓤ Unclassified Effect applies in the hand.
This Special Summon does not start a Chain.
You can send a Field Spell Card to the Graveyard as part of the cost to Special Summon “Anteatereatingant”. You can also use a Monster Card treated as an Equip Card, such as a Union Monster or a monster equipped to “Relinquished.
You can’t Special Summon this card from the Graveyard / banished, even if properly Summoned.
The ① Ignition Effect activates & resolves on the field.
The effect of “Anteatereatingant” targets 1 Spell or Trap Card.
You can only activate this card’s effect once per turn. Even if “Anteatereatingant” can attack multiple times because it’s equipped with “Twin Swords of Flashing Light – Tryce”, it can only give up its potential to attack once.
If you attack with “Anteatereatingant” and the attack is negated with “Negate Attack”, or a replay happens and you decide not to attack again, “Anteatereatingant” is still considered to have declared an attack. So you cannot activate its effect during Main Phase 2.
If you activate the effect of “Anteatereatingant”, then activate “Skill Drain”, “Anteatereatingant” still can’t attack that turn. (Even if “Skill Drain” was chained to the effect.)
You CAN activate the effect of “Anteatereatingant”, flip it face-down with a card effect, then Flip Summon it, and either activate its effect again or attack. This is because flipping it face-down resets its effect. (Also, if it’s temporarily removed from play, its effect will also reset.)
If the targeted Spell or Trap Card is removed from the field in a chain to this card’s effect, you still cannot use its effect again or attack that turn. If a targeted Spell Card is not destroyed because of a counter from “Magic Reflector”, you still cannot use this card’s effect again or attack that turn.
