Okay.. if i special summon him in a different manner, such as:


Premature burial
call of the haunted
ufo turtle

and i can pay the cost for his summon..

like 3 continuous traps

does it work?? like i use their effect and pay his cost, canhe be summoned?? or does it have to be from the hand??

The only way to summon Uria is from the hand and by the way stated on it's text, there's no other way.

" this card cannot be special summoned except by tributing 3 face up trap cards on the field" if i can pay the cost, why cant i preme or UFO turtle him??

By playing Premature Burial, you are not paying the cost. The ONLY way to do is by paying the cost. Playing Premature =/= Paying the Cost.

It's also important to note that due to it's "Nomi" state (Notice the use of the word "Except" ), it can ONLY be brought by paying the cost.

Ok Uria has the wording "except". So any creature having this can only be summoned in that manner PERIOD!!!! You must pay the cost before summoning not after. IE I can't use UFO Turtle, put him on the field and then pay 3 Traps. If in my hand I must pay 3 traps to summon. If he goes to the grave or out of play I can't Call, Premature, or Return from a DD him either!!!

thank you, that was a bit more clearer.. that does make sense. so as long as i pay the cost first, he can be summoned... got it.. does that include opponents turn??

No, you can only summon him (and any other "nomi" monster) during your own turn.

ok thanks.. that should about do it.. thread closed. ( eerr..... whatever u say when the thread is no longer needed )
