Card Text

① This card gains 100 ATK for every Warrior-Type monster in any Graveyard. ② When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Warrior-Type monster from either player’s Graveyard.

Card Rulings

  • The ① Continuous Effect re-calculates as the total of Warrior-Type monsters in the Graveyards changes.

    • This process does not start a chain, even in instances where the ATK gain changes.

    • VS. “Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind’s” effect is used to halve the ATK of “Collossal Fighter” while he was +400, the ① Continuous Effect ceases to change the ATK and its value becomes locked at the new value (2800 + 400 = 3200; once halved by Gale = 1600 ATK) so long as “Colossal Fighter” remains face-up.

  • The ② optional Trigger Effect activates in Substep 7 - End of the Damage Step when “Colossal Fighter” is destroyed by battle and finally sent to the Graveyard.

    • This is actually an optional effect, the change being clarified in the DL09 print [REF].

    • This effect targets a Warrior-Type monster in the Graveyard and will be negated by “Necrovalley”.

    • This effect can be used to Special Summon the same “Colossal Fighter” that was destroyed, even if he is the only Warrior-Type monster in the Graveyard(s).

  • The ② optional Trigger Effect WILL NOT ACTIVATE IF:

    • “Colossal Fighter” was removed from play After Damage Calculation by “D.D. Warrior Lady’s” effect.

    • “Colossal Fighter” was destroyed After Damage Calculation by the Flip Effect of “Man-Eater Bug”.

    • A Defense Position “Colossal Fighter” was shuffled into the Deck by “Ehren, Lightsworn Monk”.
