Q:A Digimon affected by this card's [On Play] [When Digivolving] effect attacked the opponent player, then a [Security] effect gave this Digimon and trashed it. Does the [End of Attack] effect activate in such cases?

A:Yes, it activates. Until the end of your opponent's turn, 1 of their Digimon gains that effect, so the [End of Attack] effect will activate even if the affected Digimon digivolves or de-digivolves.

Q:I tried to delete 1 of my other Digimon using this card's inherited effect when an opponent's Digimon attacked, but I couldn't delete the other Digimon due to another effect. Can I end that attack at such times?

A:No, you can't end that attack. If the "by doing X" condition isn't met, the rest of the effect isn't processed. In this case, if you can't delete 1 of your other Digimon, then you can't end the attack.

Q:What does "end the attack" mean, exactly?

A:After this effect activates, the current timing makes a transition to the end of attack timing. For example, if this effect activates during the attack declaration timing, it will make a transition to the end of attack timing. A transition to the counter timing or block timing won't occur, and the attack won't succeed.

Q:Can an "end the attack" effect end an attack by a Digimon that isn't affected by effects?

A:Yes, such attacks can be ended. "End the attack" effects are effects that change the timing, they don't affect an attacking Digimon.

Q:If a Digimon's attack is ended by an "end the attack" effect, can [Counter] effects activate?

A:No, they can't. If an effect that ends the attack activates, the end of attack timing comes immediately. A transition to the counter timing won't occur, therefore a [Counter] effect can't be activated.

Q:Do [End of Attack] effects activate if I activate this card's inherited effect and end the attack from an opponent's Digimon?

A:Yes, it activates.
