Card Text

① You can reveal this card in your hand to send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard. If that card is a monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal to its Level x 200, and Special Summon this card from your hand. If it is not a monster, destroy this card.

Card Rulings

  • The ① Ignition Effect activates and resolves in the hand.

    • If you cannot Special Summon monsters when this effect resolves, you still send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard (and inflict damage if it was a monster). “Gallis the Star Beast” is not Special Summoned, and (if a non-monster card was sent) is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard.

    • This effect CAN activate and resolve normally even while “Macro Cosmos” is active.

    • This effect CAN be activated even while “Des Wombat” prevents effect damage from being dealt. If a Monster Card is sent: no damage is dealt, but Gallis is Special Summoned.

    • This effect CANNOT activate while you are prevented from Special Summoning by “Vanity’s Fiend”.

    • Revealing this card to your opponent is a cost to activate its effect.

  • This effect resolves sequentially:

    • “send the top card of your Deck to the Graveyard” occurs before “If that card is a monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal to its Level x 200, and Special Summon this card from your hand. If it is not a monster,  destroy this card”.

    • If a Monster Card is sent: damage is inflicted AND Gallis is Special Summoned simultaneously

  • This effect is not guaranteed to inflict effect damage, thus “Barrel Behind the Door” cannot be activated.

  • CARD LEGALITY: In Edison Format, promotional cards from video games and other media were legal for play in North American events so long as an English translation / copy of the card was used. Konami would not reverse this policy until late 2010 [REF].
