STARSTRIKE BLAST – CARD RULINGS Compiled as of November 4, 2010 -

Swift Scarecrow STBL-EN001 When your opponent's monster declares a direct attack, you can discard this card to negate that attack and end the Battle Phase. Discarding this card is a cost to use its effect.

Mirror Ladybug STBL-EN002 If you control at least 1 face-up monster and have no monsters in your Graveyard, you canSpecial Summon this card from your hand. When this card is Special Summoned this way, this card's Level becomes equal to the total Levels of all other monsters you control. If the Level of this card is higher than 12, destroy this card. This card’s level-changing effect is a Trigger effect. You determine what Level Mirror Ladybug will become when its effect resolves. It does not change continuously.If you control no other face-up monsters when this card’s effect resolves, its Level does not change. If cards like Skill Drain or Forbidden Chalice affect Mirror Ladybug after its effect has resolved, its Level will return to 1 and will not change back even when Mirror Ladybug’s effect is no longer negated.

Power Giant STBL-EN007 You can send 1 Level 4 or lower monster from your hand to theGraveyard, Special Summon this card from your hand, and decrease this card's Level by the Level of that monster. If this card attacks or is attacked, until the end of the Damage Step any effect damage you take becomes 0. Decreasing this card’s Level is part of its Special Summon effect. You decrease Power Giant’s Level by the original Level of the monster you sent to the Graveyard, even if you used amonster whose Level was reduced by Cost Down.

As soon as you declare an attack with Power Giant, its effect to protect you from effect damage becomes active. So if your opponent activates Magic Cylinder, the attack is negated but you won’t take any damage.

Vice Berserker STBL-EN008 If this card is sent to the Graveyard as a Synchro Material Monster, inflict 2000 damage to the player thatSynchro Summoned, and the Synchro Monster that used this card as a Synchro Material Monster gains 2000 ATK until the End Phase. Even though this card always goes to its owner’s Graveyard when used for a Synchro Summon, it always inflicts 2000 damage to the player who Synchro Summoned. So if you take control of your opponent’s Vice Berserker and use it to Synchro Summon, the effect will be youropponent’s but it will damage you and increase your monster’s ATK.

Power Breaker STBL-EN010 When this card is destroyed by your opponent's attack or card effect and sent to the Graveyard, select 1 face-up Spell/Trap Card your opponent controls, and destroy it. If this card attacks, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Damage Step. This effect targets the Spell or Trap Card you wishto destroy.

Extra Veiler STBL-EN011 When your opponent Special Summons a monster(s), you can Special Summon this card from your hand. During the turn this card is Special Summoned by this effect, your opponent takes any effect damage you would have taken from their card effects, instead. The effect to Special Summon this card starts a Chain. The effect that causes your opponent to take thedamage from their card effects is part of the same effect that Special Summons this card. You can’t use this card’s Special Summon effect during the Damage Step.

Synchro Soldier STBL-EN012 Once per turn, during your Main Phase 1, you can select 1 face-up Synchro Monster you control. Remove that face-up Synchro Monster you control from play and inflict 600 damage to your opponent. If you use thiseffect, during your next Standby Phase the removed from play monster returns to the field. Removing the Synchro Monster is an effect that targets that monster, not a cost. Returning the removed from play Synchro Monster during your next Standby Phase is part of the Ignition Effect that inflicts damage.
