Card Rulings

  • Sending Spell and Trap Cards on your side of the field to the GY is a cost for activating this card.

  • You can activate a Normal Spell Card, such as Raigeki, then chain Emergency Provisions and send Raigeki to the GY to gain 1000 Life Points, and the effect of Raigeki will still resolve.

  • If your opponent activates Heavy Storm you can chain Emergency Provisions to send your Spell and Trap Cards to GY first (and gain the appropriate amount of Life Points).

  • You gain the Life Points from this card’s effect in one lump sum, so if you control Fire Princess her effect will only inflict 500 points of damage.

  • The effect of this card does not destroy your Spell and Trap Cards; it sends them to the GY. So, for example, you may send a Spell Card to the GY with a counter on it from Magic Reflector. You can also send Fusion Sword Murasame Blade even though it can’t be destroyed.

  • If you control a monster equipped with Premature Burial and you send Premature Burial to the GY to activate Emergency Provisions the equipped monster is not destroyed, because Premature Burial was not destroyed. The same is true for Toon Monsters: if you send Toon World to the GY with Emergency Provisions, Toon Monsters you control are not destroyed.

  • If you send Smoke Grenade of the Thief or Blast with Chain to the GY for the cost of Emergency Provisions their effects don’t activate, because they were not destroyed.

  • If you send Black Pendant to the GY for the cost of Emergency Provisions its effect does activate.

  • While Banisher of the Light is face-up on the field, you can’t activate Emergency Provisions since it is impossible to send cards to the GY.

  • If you have Imperial Order active on your side of the field, you may send it to the GY as part of the cost to activate Emergency Provisions and Emergency Provisions won’t be negated.
