1. okay, let's say you activate exchange to get a card from your opponent, then you activate re-load. what happens to your opponent's card? does it go back to your opponent' deck?

2. another question: same situation, but replace "re-load" with "card destruction". what happens then?

3. can you use double spell on your opponent's equip cards?

4. if you activate double spell on your opponent's final countdown (highly unlikely, but it's just an example), do you still have to pay the cost of 2000lp?

5. if you trap hole the dark magician of chaos, it's effect doesn't activate, right?

1) Ruling #1 under Reload: If you have your opponent's card in your hand and activate "Reload", your opponent's card is shuffled to his/her Deck.

2) You will discard your opponent's card to the Graveyard and Draw the same number of cards you discarded from your Deck (including for the opponent's card you discarded).

3) Yes, but only if you have two Spell/Trap Zone slots open. One for Double Spell and one for the Equip Spell Card.

4) Yes, when you use Double Spell, you activate the selected Spell Card during Double Spell's resolution. That activation includes any and all activation costs required to play that card (in this case, 2000 Life Point payment).

5) No, if you Trap Hole Dark Magician of Chaos, its effect will still activate (provided your opponent chooses to use the effect and has a Spell Card in his/her Graveyard). When your opponent Summons Dark Magician of Chaos, as long as it was the last thing to come onto the field, he/she can activate its effect immediately (before you can respond, unless you Negate the Summon). In response to the activation of Dark Magician of Chaos' effect, you can activate Trap Hole. The result will be that you destroy your opponent's Dark Magician of Chaos, but he/she will still be able to retrieve a Spell Card from his/her Graveyard.

thanx for the reply!

one question though: if you do activate double spell on your opponent's equip spell card, does the equip spell stay on the field? I thought double spell is kinda like grave robber, it's effect only lasts 1 turn.

The equip would stay on the field, it isn't like "Graverobber".
