Makoto Cloth Corps’ Ritualist (TSR-007)
Question: If an automatic ability of an entity with [Untouchable] is in the chase area, but before it can be resolved that entity is destroyed or loses [Untouchable], can that automatic ability now be targeted or canceled?
Answer: No, it still has [Untouchable]. Once an activate or automatic ability is added to the chase, it exists independently from its source and has all relevant information locked in. Removing or modifying the source in any way will not change anything already added to the chase.
Question: Can the <Strong Beliefs> ability of this card affect the will abilities of magic stones?
Answer: No. The new rule 907.7. prevents increasing the cost of playing will abilities, and as <Strong Beliefs> adds a cost to activate abilities, it doesn’t affect the will abilities. We have made this update to reduce the amount of text needed to explain abilities on cards. For more information, please check the CR update next Friday, with the set release.
Om So Hum (TSR-011)
Question: When I resolve any of the Martial Art spells, if my J/rulers have more instances of «Mantra» than the ones specified on the spell, do I resolve the effects after the “then”?
Answer: No. If a sentence of effect text starts with a condition, the entire sentence will only happen if that condition is fulfilled when you try to resolve it, no matter how many different actions are listed in that sentence. Sentences are usually independent of each other, unless a condition check like “if you do” is used. In that case that sentence will only happen if all actions of the previous sentence were performed. So, in the case of this chant, the effect text is one sentence starting with a condition, so if the condition is not fulfilled, none of the actions listed in that effect will be performed.
Alchemics 103 (TSR-033)
Question: Do I have to reveal exactly four cards while resolving Alchemics 103, or can I reveal less cards?
Answer: You can reveal zero, one, two, three or four cards while resolving Alchemics 103, if they have the appropriate attributes. It is a mandatory effect instructing you do to something (rule 104.2), thus you do as much as you legally can. But in the new CR the “fail to find” ruler of CR 1014.2. was extended to not only apply to “choosing” or “searching”, but also to “looking & revealing”. So if only you have access to the information of the cards you reveal when resolving Alchemics 103, but your opponent does not, then you can fail to find any of these cards, even though that part of the effect is mandatory.
Student Detective League’s Companions (TSR-040)
Question: Will <Crime Scene> trigger if a spell I control is canceled or returned to my hand with the activate abilities of Geryon or Persephone, the Eleventh Olympian?
Answer: No, it won’t trigger. This will only trigger when a spell you control is canceled or returned to your hand by a spell your opponent controls or by an ability of a wind card your opponent controls, and “card” without specifying a zone means that the source of the ability has to be in the field or the ruler area. If we wanted this card to be more powerful, we would have given it a rarity higher than "N".
Student Detective League’s Elected Member (TSR-041)
Question: If this card is revealed in the deck and later during the same turn it is moved to another zone, does it retain the abilities it gained from its automatic ability?
Answer: Depends. If this card moves to a hidden zone, it loses all abilities that were gained while being revealed in the deck. If this card moves to a public zone, it retains the abilities that were gained while being revealed in the deck until end of turn.
Goliath HANADA (TSR-048) & Ark, Lord of Solaris (JRP-082)
Question: When any of these cards banishes all will coins, do they banish the will coins controlled by other players, or only my will coins?
Answer: They only banish your will coins, as you can only banish cards and tokens you control.
HANADA Corps’ CEO’s Skyscraper (TSR-055)
Question: This card says “«Build» - Cards with CEO in their name gain “Whenever this card is targeted by a spell or ability >>> Cancel that spell or ability.” in all zones. Does this apply on the chase?
Answer: Yes, as the chase is a zone and “spells” are still considered “cards”, even in the chase area (rule 312.3. and rule 903.2.).
