Rulings sobre "Rivalry of Warlords" y "Gozen Match"

What do these cards do when they resolve?

“Rivalry of Warlords” and “Gozen Match” are Continuous Trap Cards that make it so you can only control face-up monsters of 1 Type (for Rivaley) or Attribute (for Gozen).

When this Trap Card’s activation resolves, look at the face-up monsters you control. If they all have the same Type/Attribute, you don’t have to do anything else. If there are different Types/Attributes, you choose 1 Type/Attribute, and send your face-up monsters that aren’t that Type/Attribute to the Graveyard.

What monsters can I Summon while they’re active?

While Rivalry/Gozen is active and you have a face-up monster, you cannot Summon monsters that aren’t the same Type/Attribute as the monster(s) you already control.

So you can’t do any of the following to put a monster with the wrong Type/Attribute on your side of the field:

- Normal Summon

- Tribute Summon

- Flip Summon

- Xyz Summon

- Synchro Summon

- Fusion Summon

- Special Summon with a monster’s own effect.

- Activate a card or effect that can Special Summon only the monsters that are the wrong Type/Attribute.

While a Rivalry/Gozen is active, you can still Set monsters of any Type/Attribute, but you can’t Flip Summon them, and they’re sent to the Graveyard after damage calculation if your opponent attacks them.

You won’t get the effects of cards that need to be destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, because they’re sent to the Graveyard by the Trap Card’s effect instead. But Flip Effects will still activate.

Are there any Special Summoning cards and effects I can activate?

You can activate cards and effects that would Summon the same Type/Attribute monster as you have on the field.

You can also activate cards that would Summon more than one Type/Attribute of monster. The results depend on what you have on the field: If you DON’T control any monsters: You can activate cards that would Summon monsters with more than one Type/Attribute. All of them are Summoned, but you must immediately pick one Type/Attribute and send all others to the Graveyard.

If you already DO control a monster: First of all, if the Summoning effect targets, you can only target monsters with the right Type/Attribute. However, you can also activate cards that would Summon lots of monsters without targeting (like “Return from the Different Dimension”), as long as at least 1 of them is the right Type/Attribute. In this case, only the right monsters are Summoned to the field.

The same rule applies to the “Gladiator Beast” monsters. You can return a Gladiator Beast to your Deck and activate its effect as long as there is another Gladiator Beast in your Deck that you COULD Summon that is the same Type/Attribute as the one you returned. However, if you have no face-up monsters when the effect resolves, you can Summon any Type/Attribute of monster.

Can I take control of my opponent’s monster with the wrong Type/Attribute?

You can take control of an opponent’s monster that’s the wrong Type/Attribute with a card like “Mind Control”. If you do, it’s sent to the Graveyard immediately after you gain control of it.

Anything else I should know?

If you control no face-up monsters, you can Summon a monster of any Type/Attribute. Also, if Rivalry/Gozen is being negated, you can Summon monsters of any Type/Attribute. If it stops being negated, you have to send monsters to the Graveyard until you control only 1 Type/Attribute again, just like if Rivalry/Gozen had just resolved.
