Card Text¶

① Both players can Normal Summon or Set monsters without Tributing, by paying 1000 Life Points x the number of monsters needed for the Tribute Summon.

Card Rulings¶

• The ① Ignition-like Effect activates & resolves on the field.

  • Either player can use this effect on their respective turn.

  • This effect is not an additional Normal Summon, but your one Normal / Tribute Summon for the turn may be performed without Tributing monsters.

  • Paying 1000 or 2000 Life Points is a cost.

  • You cannot pay 3000 Life Points to Normal Summon “Victory Dragon” or “Gilford the Lightning”, so you cannot use this effect to Normal Summon “Obelisk the Tormentor” [REF].

  • The Normal Summoned monster (ex: “Caius the Shadow Monarch”) was NOT Tribute Summoned.

  • The Normal Summon CANNOT be negated by “Solemn Judgment” [REF].

  • The Normal Summon can be responded to with “Torrential Tribute”.

  • You cannot use the effect of “Spell Economics” to activate this effect without paying Life Points.

  • This effect cannot be used when resolving the effect of “Ultimate Offering”, because you cannot activate “Mausoleum of the Emperor’s” effect during the resolution of “Ultimate Offering’s” effect.
