Note

[Sakuyamon] decks have powerful moves that allow for digivolving into a level 7 Digimon early in a game and for dominating the field.

In particular, BT17-035 [Taomon]'s inherited effect and EX8-037 [Sakuyamon (X Antibody)]'s [Your Turn] effect allow for digivolving into BT20-037 [Chaosmon: Valdur Arm] while attacking, giving players the ability to quickly reduce opponents' security stacks while preventing them from making comebacks. We've determined that there aren't many decks that can counter this, and this harms the diversity of decks in the gameplay environment.

For the above reasons, we've decided to ban BT17-035 [Taomon] and EX8-037 [Sakuyamon (X Antibody)] in decks that use BT20-037 [Chaosmon: Valdur Arm].

Q&A
Date
Question

Does this card's [When Digivolving] effect prevent both my opponent's Digimon and Tamers from activating [On Play] effects or unsuspending until the end of their turn?

Answer

That's correct, both your opponent's Digimon and Tamers are prevented from activating [On Play] effects or unsuspending.

Date
Question

What does "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects" mean, exactly?

Answer

This effect prevents [On Play] effects on cards from activating.

Triggered [On Play] effects can no longer activate when a card is played or when effects such as "activate that card's [On Play]" effect" activate.

Date
Question

I used a card affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects" to attack.

Can I activate that card's [On Play] [When Attacking] effect at such times?

Answer

Yes, you can.

The effect can activate if it's triggered upon the [When Attacking] timing.

Date
Question

If a card is affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects," can it activate its own [On Play] effect using an effect such as "activate 1 of that card's [On Play] effects"?

Answer

No, it can't be activated.

Date
Question

If a card is affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects," can another card's [On Play] effect be activated using an effect such as "activate 1 of that card's [On Play] effects as an effect of this card"?

Answer

No, it can't be activated.

Date
Question

Can I use "activate 1 of that card's [On Play] effects as an effect of this card" on a card that isn't affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects" to activate the [On Play] effect on another card that's affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects"?

Answer

Yes, you can.

Date
Question

If a card is affected by "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects," can I perform just the "by doing X" condition in its [On Play] effect?

Answer

No, you can't.

Date
Question

A card digivolved into a card that has an [On Play] [When Attacking] [Once Per Turn] effect while "none of your opponent's Digimon can activate [On Play] effects" was activated.

Does that count as an instance of that effect's [X Per Turn] even if that effect can't be activated upon the timing when that card is played?

Answer

No, it doesn't count.

The effect can't activate upon the [On Play] timing, therefore it doesn't count as an instance of that effect's [X Per Turn].

Date
Question

Does this card's [When Digivolving] effect prevent both my opponent's Digimon and Tamers from activating [On Play] effects or unsuspending until the end of their turn?Jun. 25, 2025 Updated

Answer

That's correct, both your opponent's Digimon and Tamers are prevented from activating [On Play] effects or unsuspending.
