Can "Power Bond" be used to offer both "Cyber Dragon" and "The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion" to special summon "Cyber Twin Dragon"?

"Power Bond"s effect states that it is a Fusion Summon, and "Cyber Twin Dragon"s effect states that it can be Fusion Summoned only with 2 "Cyber Dragons"

If it is however allowed then why is it not limited or banned? considering it has the properties of 1-turn kill.

Many thanks in advance.

Cyber Twin Dragon (CRV-EN035)
Light
ATK 2800 DEF 2100
[ Machine / Fusion ]
Description:
"Cyber Dragon" + "Cyber Dragon"
A Fusion Summon of this card can only be conducted with the above Fusion Material Monsters. This card can attack twice during the same Battle Phase.

Power Bond (CRV-EN037)
Normal Magic/Spell
Description:
Send, from your hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard, Fusion Material Monsters that are listed on a Machine-Type Fusion Monster Card, and Special Summon that Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck. (This Special Summon is treated as a Fusion Summon). Increase the ATK of this Special Summoned Fusion Monster by an amount equal to its original ATK. During the End Phase of this turn, the player who activated this card takes damage equal to the original ATK of the Special Summoned monster.

The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion (FET-EN027)
Light
ATK 1000 DEF 1600
[ Rock / Effect ]
Description:
You can substitute this card for any 1 Fusion-Material Monster. When you do this, the other Fusion-Material Monster(s) must be the correct one(s). Tribute Fusion-Material Monsters on the field, including this card, to Special Summon 1 LIGHT Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck.

Since the Summon of Cyber Twin Dragon is considered a Fusion Summon with Power Bond's effect, you cannot use Fusion Substitutes, unless youre using the second effect of "The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion" to Special Summon Cyber Twin Dragon then it would be legal because it is being Special Summoned to the field, not Fusion Summoned.

Also consider the text...

...Fusion Material Monsters that are listed on a Machine-Type Fusion Monster Card...

This wording makes it so that you take a very literal approach. The names of the card present must be the names of the cards used for the bonding. The only exception I could see would be a face up prot-cyber dragon for the obvious reasons 8^D

I don't believe the wording is relevant as Polymerization has the same wording and we all know you can use fusions subs with Poly. I would say that you could Power Bond a Blowback Dragon and a fusion sub and get a superpowered Gatling Dragon :)


Current Polymerization text:
Send Fusion Material Monsters that are listed by a Fusion Monster Card from your hand or your side of the field to the Graveyard, and Special Summon the Fusion Monster from your Fusion Deck.

Actually, that doesn't work.

Remember, "Power Bond" is counted as a Fusion Summon.

And, per "Cyber Twin Dragon"'s text, you cannot use Fusion-Substitutes for its Fusion Summon.

The end result is that "The Light Hex-Sealed Fusion" + "Cyber Dragon" + "Power Bond" is not a legal move. When using "Power Bond" to Fusion Summon "Cyber Twin Dragon" or "Cyber End Dragon", the correct Fusion-Material monsters must be used.

Also, I think you might be confused about the word "except" on Fusion Monsters. For example, "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman"'s text:

"This monster cannot be Special Summoned except by Fusion Summon."

And yet, Fusion-Substitutes are allowed. This text merely means that Fusion Summoning is the only way to Special Summon this card.

Now, here's the text you're thinking of (from monsters like "Cyber Twin Dragon" and "Dark Balter the Terrible"):

"A Fusion Summon of this monster can only be conducted with the above Fusion Material Monsters."

Note that the word "except" is nowhere to be found. Despite this, you cannot use Fusion-Substitutes.

However, you can Special Summon such monsters via methods other than Fusion Summon ("Magical Scientist", "Cyber-Stein", "Metamorphosis").

Hopefully that clears things up.

Basically...

You cannot use Power Bond to FUSE Cyber Dragon/Proto-Cyber Dragon with The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion to FUSION Summon Cyber Twin Dragon

You CAN use The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusions secondary effect to tribute itself and Cyber Dragon/Proto-Cyber Dragon to SPECIAL Summon Cyber Twin Dragon directly from your Fusion Deck. But then it loses the advantage of being able to be revived if it dies.

Thank you everyone, it's just that someone 1-turn killed me by doing that combo, so I came to ask if it's legal. ofcourse if it requires 2 Cyber Dragon then its harder to do...

Proto-Cyber Dragon makes it easier to do now, assuming it manages to get face-up on the field quickly.

Basically that's what I said in my first post of this thread...

Now you can use your deck in clarification of this ruling...
