Card Text

Destroy the 1 face-up monster your opponent controls that has the highest DEF. (If it’s a tie, you get to choose.)

Card Rulings

  • This effect does NOT target.

  • You can activate “Smashing Ground” even if your opponent only has 1 monster on the field.

  • If there are two or more monsters with equal DEF on your opponent’s side of the field, you (the player who activated “Smashing Ground”) select which monster will be destroyed.

  • This card can be negated by “My Body as a Shield” because it guarantees an attempt to destroy a monster at resolution.

  • “Morphtronic Forcefield” cannot negate “Smashing Ground”/“Fissure”/etc, even if you only control “Morphtronic” monsters.
