A: The activation of Branded Fusion was negated, so it does not prevent you from Special Summoning Verte Anaconda. (Just make sure you didn't resolve Branded Opening, or Lubellion's effect, this turn.) When Normal or Special Summoned, searches a Branded spell/trap card. If it's in your GY, and a Fusion you control leaves the field, you can banish it to negate an opponent's monster effect. Q: I activate the effect of Ad Libitum of Despia by targeting a Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon in my GY. If my opponent resolves D.D. Crow's effect in response, banishing that same Mirrorjade, what happens? Now, what will you search with Aluber will depend on the rest of your hand and what do you want to achieve, Branded in Red and Branded Fusion should be the two targets generally, but if you have one of them or both, you could think about using Aluber to get a Branded Opening for further extension of your play. Q: My opponent's Fallen of Albaz activates its effect. In response, the effect of my Predaplant Dragostapelia resolves, placing a Predator Counter on Fallen of Albaz. What happens?

When Lubellion's effect then resolves, you choose a Fusion Monster to Summon, and the materials to use. Q: I have just resolved Aluber the Jester of Despia's effect in the GY, Special Summoning it. Can I now activate its effect that adds a "Branded" Spell/Trap to my hand? Q: I have activated and resolved Mirrorjade's Trigger Effect. My opponent later banishes it using Called by the Grave. Will my opponent's monsters still be destroyed during the End Phase? Q: Using the effect of Fallen of Albaz, can I use my opponent's Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora as Fusion Material, even though it is unaffected by other cards' effects? A: No. Aluber's effect in the GY is activated by targeting 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls. Both monsters are destroyed by battle, at which point your opponent controls no Effect Monster that you could target. Therefore, you cannot activate Aluber's effect.

Oh, YuGiOh and it's conditional "then"s. If something happens to that poor card you targeted in your GY, like being Called By'ed or D.D. Crow'd, this effect will not resolve. Hi, this is the section where people who don't want to spend 350€ on Adventurer cards roam desperately in search of hope. Q: I used two monsters on the field to Fusion Summon Guardian Chimera while my opponent only controls one card. Can I activate Guardian Chimera's effect? Q: I have activated and resolved Mirrorjade's Trigger Effect. My opponent later summons Geomathmech Final Sigma to the Extra Monster Zone. Will it be destroyed during the End Phase?

Use Aluber the Jester of Despia to search your fusion spell of choice, to then make a Branded dragon which could be Lubellion the Searing Dragon, or Albion the Branded Dragon, or, alternatively, summon Guardian Chimera. A: No. Predaplant Dragostapelia's effect only negates activated effects. It has no interaction with Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon's Continuous Effect. Q: My opponent activates Torrential Tribute, and my Super Polymerization resolves in response, Fusion Summoning Lubellion the Searing Dragon. Lubellion is then destroyed by Torrential Tribute. Can I activate its effect?Q: I control a face-down Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon. Can I use Polymerization to Fusion Summon another copy of Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon, using the copy on my field as material? A: No. Drawing cards is a mandatory part of Guardian Chimera's effect. You cannot activate Guardian Chimera's effect unless you can currently attempt to do so. Q: I Normal Summon Fallen of Albaz while the only other monster on the field is my opponent's field is a Dinowrestler Pankratops, and activate Fallen of Albaz' effect. If my opponent's Dinowrestler Pankratops activates its effect in response, Tributing itself and destroying a Spell/Trap I control, what happens? More than decent card that functions both as a handtrap, and as a starter/extender in later game states. Q: Both players control a face-up Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon. Can I activate Mind Control targeting my opponent's copy of Mirrorjade? If yes, what happens when it resolves?

Albion the Shrouded Dragon is, sadly, another card in the ever growing list of "Cards that look to be very good but, upon closer inspection, reveal themselves for what they are: mid at best, and not worth playing much." A: Yes, they can. In this situation, Ad Libitum's effect includes an effect to Special Summon from the GY. A: If you do not have a Fusion Monster you can Fusion Summon when resolving Fallen of Albaz' effect, nothing happens. (Fallen of Albaz remains on the field.) Q: I Normal Summon Aluber the Jester of Despia, and resolve its effect. Can I add "Branded Fusion" to my hand?Q: If my opponent activates Predaplant Verte Anaconda's effect by sending Fusion Destiny to the GY, can I negate this activation using Branded Retribution? Q: If a Fusion Summoned Mirrorjade is Tributed by my opponent to Special Summon Lava Golem, to Normal Summon The Winged Dragon Of Ra - Sphere Mode, or sent to the GY by my opponent to Special Summon Chimeratech Megafleet Dragon, or used as material by my opponent to Link Summon Underworld Goddess of the Closed World, etc., can its effect be activated? Q: If my opponent uses the effect of Eldlich the Golden Lord to send my Fusion Summoned Mirrorjade to the GY, while they control no monsters, can Mirrorjade's effect be activated? Q: I control Predaplant Dragostapelia, and my opponent controls a Dinowrestler Pankratops with a Predator Counter. If Dinowrestler Pankratops activates its effect by Tributing itself, what happens? Q: I activate the effect of Ad Libitum of Despia by targeting a Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon in my GY. Can my opponent activate Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion's effect in response?
