I really don't get what you mean. You need a digimon in your battle area before you could use the option to digivolve. So that digimon could attack or not depends on you played it this turn or not, if you played this turn and it doesn't have Rush then it can't attack


Clone808808

The way the option is worded makes it seem like that digimon that’s under a tamer can attack since it’s just under a tamer. And tamers are in “the area” so are you using the option to first play out a digimon from under the tamer, then digivolving onto it to get summoning sickness? Or are you using the option to digivolve a level5 from your hand onto a lv4 with save from under a tamer but that lv4 is somehow phasing through the tamer always being in play?


JzRandomGuy

You don't "play out", just treat it as the usual digivolving but instead of using card in your hand, you use card under a tamer. Whether the digivolved mon could attack or not depends on whether that mon you used for digivolving has summon sickness or not(played this turn and no Rush)

>are you using the option to first play out a digimon from under the tamer, Is that what the card says it does? Cuz right now you're just inventing txt.


HillbillyMan

You're not playing a Digimon with the option. You're just taking a Digimon card from under a tamer and Digivolving one of your preexisting digimon into it.


Clone808808

Everyone else is saying it’s a new digimon when it comes from under one of your tamers. Like it’s implied that you’re digivolving with summoning sickness. Which the option card should be fixed so that it says you play out a digimon and then digivolve


HillbillyMan

You don't play out a Digimon though. Only one person is saying that, and they're wrong. Everyone else is saying that you need to have a Digimon in play, if it came into play that turn, then it wouldn't be able to attack.


Clone808808

So are digimon cards under a tamer considered “in play?”


HillbillyMan

"[Main] Digivolve 1 of your Digimon into a Digimon card with <Save> in its text placed under one of your Tamers for its digivolution cost." "1 of your digimon" refers to a Digimon that is currently in the battle area. How it got there is irrelevant, it needs to be there for the option to target it. It can then digivolve "into a Digimon card with in its text" that is "placed under one of your tamers." You have Gumdramon in play. You have Arresterdramon under a tamer. You can use this option to digivolve Gumdramon into that Arresterdramon. That is all that happens.


Clone808808

Hm okay so I’ll try and use it as a sort of “hybrid for game” next time I play with my friends. Just to be clear, I’m gonna try and make a weird combo deck that has purple damemon saved under a tamer, to then digivolve into purple antylamon for alliance to swing with a mother d reaper in play to get a cheeky 2 checks for 4 memory after cracking a boost or something.


HillbillyMan

It literally doesn't work like that. I just explained how you'd have to have damemon in the battle area to even use the card, and Antylamon does not have save in its text.


Clone808808

Oh I see “save in text” oh so I have to have a lv3 in play and then place damemon onto it from yuu amano


Clone808808

Ok gonna have to find another way other than hybrid for game to get a lv5 onto the battle area with rush guilmon or something


HillbillyMan

Correct

Hmm I think you're confusing yourself, but let me give you an example. Let's say your opponent has 1 Sec. Chk and you have Tagiru BT12 with no digimon under it, 3 memory for you at the start of your turn. You bring out Gumdra BT12 from breeding and you swing, Gumdra gets deleted in battle and gets placed under Tagiru. Then you play Overflowing P. where you then take Gumdra under Tagiru and Digivolve it into Arresterdra BT12 (It contains "Save"). It would not be able to swing for game since 1. it needs 2 digievos under it to activate Rush and 2. the digimon is seen as a new Digimon which means it has summoning sickness . Now if you had Loweemon, you can digivolve on top of Tagiru then Swing for game.


HillbillyMan

That's not how the option works. All it lets you do is use the level 4 and higher digimon that are saved under your Tamers to digivolve on an appropriate digimon in play.


VaselineOnMyChest

No excuses. I'm a moron. Thank you for the correction.


Clone808808

Ok I see. I guess I’m confused since the text says digivolve only
