Edison-Accurate PSCT

When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 Level 2 or lower monster in your GY; Special Summon that target in Defense Position (but negate its effects).

Card Rulings

If you activate the effect of a monster summoned this way:

  • Any costs will be paid as usual.

  • However, the effect will resolve negated, as the effect was activated on the field, where its effects were being negated. EG: "Substitoad" summoned this way tributes itself. Its effect is negated, since its effect was activated on the field.

If a monster summoned this way becomes flipped face-down or leaves the field, its effects are no longer negated, starting from the moment it leaves the field. EG: "Mad Reloader" summoned this way is destroyed by battle. Its effect is not negated, since its effect was not activated on the field.
