Edison-Accurate PSCT¶

① If this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent: Send the top card of their Deck to the GY. ② If sent from the field to your GY: Add 1 Zombie with 1200 or less DEF from your Deck to your hand.

Card Rulings¶

• Both of these effects are mandatory.

• If this card is used as Synchro Material for “Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier”, this card’s ② effect must trigger. Because of this, you don’t retain Ignition Priority, and can’t activate Brionac’s effect until Goblin Zombie has finished resolving.

Card Text¶

① When this card inflicts Battle Damage to your opponent, send the top card of their Deck to the Graveyard. ② When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard, add 1 Zombie-Type monster with 1200 or less DEF from your Deck to your hand.

Card Rulings¶

• The ① mandatory Trigger Effect activates in Substep 5 - After Damage Calculation of the Damage Step.

  • If “Macro Cosmos” applies, the top card of your opponent’s Deck is removed from play instead.

• The ② mandatory Trigger Effect cannot miss the timing.

  • This effect only activates if this card is sent to the Graveyard, not if removed from play.

  • This effect activates even if you have no targets remaining in your Deck.

  • This effect will activate even during the Damage Step.

  • If used in a Synchro Summon, this effect must activate; you cannot claim Ignition Effect Priority to activate the Ignition Effect of the Synchro Monster (ex: “Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier”).

  • If used to Synchro Summon “Mist Wurm”, both mandatory Trigger Effects activate: “Goblin Zombie” (Chain Link 1) activates first, then “Mist Wurm” (Chain Link 2) if the Synchro Summon is successful.
