• Card Rules: Rulings powered by The Netrep API. [Re: Pole Position] EXAMPLE #2 The opponent has 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' (3000 ATK) and 'Pole Position' face-up on the field. I have 'Gemini Elf' (1900 ATK), and an 'Opticlops' (1800 ATK) equipped with 'Axe of Despair'(+1000 ATK 2800 total) face-up on the field, and a Set 'Ring of Destruction'. If I activate 'Ring of Destruction' to destroy 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon', then 'Opticlops' will be the highest ATK monster on the field, and cause an infinite loop (it is the highest, it isn't, it is, it isn't, etc.). Therefore, I cannot target 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' with 'Ring of Destruction'. [Re: Pole Position] EXAMPLE #3 The opponent has a face-down 'Pole Position'. I have 'Opticlops' (1800 ATK) and 'Gemini Elf' (1900 ATK) face-up on the field. I activate 'Axe of Despair' (+1000 ATK) and try to equip my 'Opticlops' (1800 ATK). The opponent cannot chain 'Pole Position', since that would cause an infinite loop. 'Pole Position' is an illegal activation. Put it back face-down. [Re: Pole Position] EXAMPLE #5 I have 'Pole Position' and 'Opticlops' (1800 ATK) face-up on the field. The opponent has a 'Muka Muka' equipped with 'Axe of Despair' face-up on the field with no cards in his hand. At the start of the opponent's turn, he draws a card, making 'Muka Muka's ATK 1900. An infinite loop is created by something that could not be avoided, so 'Pole Position' is destroyed. [Re: Pole Position] EXAMPLE #7 I have 'Pole Position', 'Banner of Courage', and 'Opticlops' face-up on the field. The opponent has 'Gemini Elf' face-up on the field. When I enter my Battle Phase, an infinite loop is created as 'Opticlops' fluctuates between 1800 and 2000 ATK. So 'Pole Position' is destroyed. [Re: Pole Position] EXAMPLE #8 I have 'Pole Position', 'Gemini Elf' (1900 ATK / EARTH) and 'Mystic Plasma Zone' (+500 ATK to DARK) face-up on the field, and an 'Opticlops' (1800 ATK / DARK) in face-down Defense Position. The opponent attacks my face-down 'Opticlops' with 'Mokey Mokey'. When we flip 'Opticlops' face-up in the Damage Step, an infinite loop is created as 'Opticlops' fluctuates between 1800 and 2300 ATK (either above or below 'Gemini Elf', making it the strongest monster on the field, or not). Therefore, 'Pole Position' is destroyed.
