Rulings

Netrep Rulings

  • Monsters affected by "Curse of Fiend" may have their battle positions changed by effects.

Netrep Q&As

  • Q: Does "Curse of Fiend's" effect work on Set monsters and would it be considered a Flip Summon? A: A Set monster would be changed to face-up attack position. It would not be considered Flip-Summoned, because its position was changed by a card effect, but its Flip-Effect would activate if it had one. Curtis Schultz, 01/25/2004
