Card Rulings

Neither player can Summon more than two times per turn.

  • The Continuous Effect does not activate.

  • This effect counts all Summon events performed during the turn. (ex: Scapegoat is only 1 Summon event, since the 4 monsters are Summoned simultaneously).

  • The limit applies to Normal / Flip / Tribute / Special Summons.

  • Summons performed before Summon Limit resolved are counted towards the limit. After Summon Limit resolves, a player that already Summoned twice can’t Summon any more monsters this turn.

  • A negated Summon (ex: Chaos Sorcerer) still counts towards the limit.

  • An Effect (ex: Debris Dragon) that is negated (by Skill Drain) still counts towards the limit.

  • An Effect (ex: Instant Fusion) whose activation is negated (by Dark Bribe) does not count towards the limit.
