I searched (and couldn't find anything on these questions), so you can't say I didn't look around.

Here's a few situations I've come across.

1. Altar for Tribute: Can Wildhear/Shien be used for this card? It selects, and I believe traps can target them.... From what I understand, it wouldn't be sent to the Grave..... but would you get the Life point gain?

2. Assault on GHQ: Again, select Wildhear/Shien.....It won't be distroyed..... but will the opponent still have to discard?

3. Covering Fire: Will Wildheart/Shien's attack be applied, or be increased? Probably not.....

4. Destruction Ring: It won't destroy them, but will the damage still take place?

5. Fairy's Hand Mirror: Will it target them?

6. Generation Shift: It won't destroy them, but can you still add the copy to your hand?

7. Physical Double: Will this work?

8. Rope of life: It can be special summoned, but they won't gain the attack boost, correct?

9. Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane: It won't be tributed but will the special summon still occur?

That's all I got. Thanks.

Most questions can be answered by reading the card.

1. Read the card, they can't be effected by trap cards, period.
2. No, the effect calls for a monster to be destroyed.
3. Once again, they can't be effected by trap cards.
4. Please read the cards, they are not effected by traps.
5. You have to target it to either another magic or trap card.
6. You must destroy it to get the effect.
7. Once again, the cards aren't effected by traps...
8. Uneffected by traps.
9. Uneffected by traps.

So in general, no trap will work for them.

Please be more specific. Tell me WHY they won't work, instead of acting like a jerk and telling me to read the card 50 times. I just wanted to be certain of the workings of the cards combinations. Is that so fricken horrible?

1. Is it because the monster is the cost? And since the cost can't be sent to the grave, the other part of the effect won't activate. Is that correct?

2. My bad.

3. Wait, so Wildheart/Shien can't be selected as the monster who's attack increases the other monster? But I thought it could be selected, just not effected....

4. Since the effect is tied together, it doesn't work. I should have seen that, my bad.

5. Fairy's Hand Mirror
Group: Trap Card
Type: Trap
Switch the opponent's Spell Card effect that designates 1 monster as a target to another correct target.

Huh? It doesn't say anything about redirecting it to a spell/trap. It targets a monster. If Wildheart/Shien is targeted, will the effect continue? I'm assuming it will because it can be targeted, just not effected.

6. The cost thing again? I always have trouble with this. Sometimes i see the text as 2 seperate effects, not a cost and effect.

7. Physical Double
Group: Trap Card
Type: Trap
You can only activate this card during your opponent's turn. Select 1 monster on your opponent's side of the field and Special Summon 1 "Mirage Token" in face-up Attack or Defense Position on your side of the field. The "Mirage Token" has the same Level Type, Attribute, ATK, and DEF as the selected monster. Destroy the "Mirage Token" at the end of the turn.

Wildheart/Shien only take part in the selection process. It's uneffected for the rest of the effect. Only the Token is effected. So why won't this work?

8. Please be more specific. If you're saying it can't be special summoned, you're wrong. It can be. That's proven by the ruling with Call of the Haunted. Only the attack would be uneffected.

9. Again, this would be a cost, right? Meh, there's always face-down use, i suppose.

1. Altar for Tribute: Can Wildhear/Shien be used for this card? It selects, and I believe traps can target them.... From what I understand, it wouldn't be sent to the Grave..... but would you get the Life point gain?

No..."Sending to the Graveyard" is the cost for activating Altar for Tribute in the first place. Being unaffected by the EFFECT is irrelevent. It's just like how Horus LV6 can be "sent to the Graveyard" for the cost of Level Up!

So E. Hero Wildman and Tenkabito Shien CAN be sent to the Graveyard if selected for the cost and you WILL gain LP.




2. Assault on GHQ: Again, select Wildhear/Shien.....It won't be distroyed..... but will the opponent still have to discard?

E. Hero Wildman and Tenkabito Shien will NOT be destroyed since destroying them is an EFFECT of the card.

As rulings state for it....

"If you cannot destroy a monster with this effect, you cannot send cards from your opponent's Deck to the Graveyard."




3. Covering Fire: Will Wildheart/Shien's attack be applied, or be increased? Probably not.....

It depends on the situation.

If E. Hero Wildman or Tenkabito Shien are the one's being targeted for the ATK increase, no, they will not gain it.

However, if something ELSE is being attacked, you can use it and transfer E. Hero Wildman or Tenkabito Shein's ATK strength to the OTHER monster since it's not affecting Wildman or Shien in any way, but the monster being targeted for the increase.



4. Destruction Ring: It won't destroy them, but will the damage still take place?

It will not destroy them, however, just like with Assault on GHQ...

"If the monster targeted by "Destruction Ring" is destroyed in a chain before "Destruction Ring" resolves, then the monster was not destroyed by "Destruction Ring'"s effect and no damage is inflicted."

...this basically means that if no monster is actually destroyed, then no damage is dealt at all.



5. Fairy's Hand Mirror: Will it target them?

Fairy's Hand Mirror is not affecting Wildman or Shien in any way at all. It's simply redirecting a Magic Card effect to affect them. Basically, it's affecting the Magic Card, not the monsters. It's just like how Waboku affects the DAMAGE they do and not the monsters themselves.



6. Generation Shift: It won't destroy them, but can you still add the copy to your hand?

As said for Assault on GHQ and Destruction Ring. A monster must be destroyed in order for the effect to fully resolve. If a monster is unable to be destroyed, then you do not search your Deck, nor shuffle it.



7. Physical Double: Will this work?

Physical Double is not "Affecting" the monster in any shape or form.



8. Rope of life: It can be special summoned, but they won't gain the attack boost, correct?

Yes, they can be brought back and yes, they will NOT gain the 800 ATK boost.



9. Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane: It won't be tributed but will the special summon still occur?

This time, the tributing is a COST for activating, so E. Hero Wildman CAN be tributed for the cost and it CAN be Special Summoned by the effect as well.

Thank you, Half, for taking the time to answer my questions specifically. I realize it must have been tedious work. You are an excellent contributor to this site and probably one of the only reasons why I keep showing up.

No problem really. Pretty fast typer and I'm still hyper from drinking so much Pepsi XD (2:00 AM here btw)

I am sorry if I acted like a jerk.

I was under the impression that no traps can work with Wildheart/Shien, so none of those questions would have worked.

But Half is right, some of the cards that don't affect wildheart can work.

My bad.

Thats a good section of the Advanced FAQ for people to refer to when looking at immune to [insert card type here] effects.

HalfDemonInuyas your insane and what's this Pepsi XD? or is XD supposed to be a smilie? and why drink pepsi? Coke is so much better...

Pepsi has more flavor...Coke is bland to me....leaves a weird aftertaste too for me.

Coke is only good for things I can't mention due to imperessionable young minds. But Half, try Vault. It tastes like Mountain Dew and energizes like Red Bull. And you really do give some crystal clear explanantions.

I would, but I can't seem to find any around here X_x;;;

Oh well...I do my best

I tried to pm you but it wouldn't go through. Lol. Try wal-mart. The ones around here have them 2 one liter bottles for $1.50. I didn't want to spam too much, but Vault is too good to resist. ;)

Krahe: Thank you for the link. I'll look towards that section if I have any questions in the future.

Half and Jackal: You're both insane, because Barq's has bite! ^_^

But when you work overnight(or are just a nightowl like me) you need a kick not a bite!
