Edison-Accurate PSCT¶

① During your Main Phase: You can send 1 other monster from your hand to the GY, and Special Summon this card from your hand. Ⓒ For a Synchro Summon, you can substitute this card for any 1 “Synchron” Tuner. Ⓒ can’t be used as a Synchro Material, except for a monster that lists a “Synchron” Tuner as material.

Card Rulings¶

The ① effect is an ignition effect. It activates, and can be chained to.
Sending a card to the GY is part of the ① effect. It happens when this effect resolves. If you can’t send, you can’t Summon. If you can’t Summon, you don’t send. (If the effect is negated, you don’t send a card from your hand to the GY)

Card Text¶

① You can send 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard and Special Summon this card from your hand. Ⓒ You can substitute this card for any 1 “Synchron” Tuner monster for a Synchro Summon. Ⓒ This card cannot be used as a Synchro Material Monster, except for the Synchro Summon of a monster that lists a “Synchron” monster as a Tuner monster.

Card Rulings¶

The ① Special Summon starts a chain (treat it as an Ignition Effect) [REF].
- Sending (not discarding) 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard is not a cost.
- Sending 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard and the Special Summon occur simultaneously.
- This effect can activate while “Macro Cosmos” applies, remove from play the sent monster [REF].
- If this effect (or its activation) is negated (by “Royal Oppression” / “Gladiator Beast War Chariot”), do not send 1 monster from your hand to the Graveyard [REF].
- If an effect (ex: “Rivalry of Warlords”, “Gozen Match”, “Summon Limit”) is chained such that “Quickdraw Synchron” cannot be summoned, NO monster is sent from your hand to the Graveyard.
  - The key conjunction employed here is “and” and how “do A and B” is ruled by P.S.C.T. today.
  - See “Acorno” for a comparable effect written with P.S.C.T.
