Card Rulings

  • There is no limit to the number of Spell Counters you can have on Magical Marionette.

  • Removing Spell Counters from Magical Marionette to use its effect is a cost.

  • You can use Magical Marionette’s effect multiple times in the same turn, as long as you have enough Spell Counters to pay the cost.

  • You can destroy Magical Marionette with its own effect.

  • You place a Spell Counter on this card when the Spell Card resolves, so if Magic Jammer is used to negate the Spell Card’s activation then you don’t place a Spell Counter on this monster. But if Imperial Order is chained to the Spell Card, you still place a Spell Counter on this monster because the activation of the Spell Card was not negated. If the Spell Card was a Continuous, Equip, or Field Spell Card, and “Dust Tornado” is chained to its activation and destroys it before it resolves you still place a Spell Counter because the activation of the card was not negated.

  • If you activate a Spell Card, and your opponent chains Call of the Haunted to Special Summon Magical Marionette, Magical Marionette does not get a Spell Counter for that Spell Card because Magical Marionette must be face-up on the field when the Spell Card is activated and when it resolves in order to get a Spell Counter.
