Belphemon: Sleep Mode

Q:Can I trash just 1 card in my hand for this card's [Opponent's Turn] effect?

A:No, you can't. A "by" condition can't be met if only some of the required actions are performed. The conditions for this [Opponent's Turn] effect require you to trash 2 cards in your hand.

Q:What does "effects don't affect" mean, exactly?

A:This effect prevents a card from being affected by effects. For example, your Digimon won't suspend if it's chosen for a "suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon" effect, and its DP won't be reduced by 3000 if it's chosen for a "1 of your opponent's Digimon gets -3000 DP" effect.

Q:Can a card that has an "effects don't affect" effect be chosen for an effect?

A:Yes, it can be chosen. For example, a Digimon that isn't affected by effects can be chosen for a "suspend 1 of your opponent's Digimon" effect.

Q:Can a card that has an "effects don't affect" effect be given an effect?

A:Yes, it can. It won't be affected by it, but it can be given an effect. However, if an effect such as is given to a Digimon that isn't affected by effects, the Digimon won't be considered to have that effect.

Q:If a card is affected by an effect, then it later gains an "effects don't affect" effect, what happens to the effect that was affecting it?

A:As soon as it gains the "effects don't affect" effect, it will no longer be affected.

Q:If a card has an "effects don't affect" effect, it gains an effect, then it later loses the "effects don't affect" effect, what happens to the effect that it gained?

A:It will be affected by the effect as soon as it can be affected by effects.

Q:A card that has an "effects don't affect" effect was given an effect that triggers at a timing such as [When Attacking]. Will the effect trigger if that card later meets the trigger conditions?

A:If the Digimon isn't affected by effects upon the trigger timing, the effect won't trigger.
