Does a card that you control with "Once per turn" on it always refer to that it can only be used during your turn, and not your opponent's turn? Unless it's a (Trigger Effect) (Quick Effect) or (During either player's turn)etc? Or does "Once per turn" mean that it can be activated both during you and your opponent's turn? Also, how would Ghostrick-Go-Round work, could I only activate it during my Battle Phase, or during any player's Battle Phase? Thanks in advance
@@LegacyCrusaders Thanks, also what about the timing on generic, non triggered (once per turn) cards? Considering they aren't labeled as (Quick effect), could you activate say (Card Ejector) in response to your opponent trying to banish a specific card from their graveyard? Or could you only activate (Card Ejector) when there is nothing being resolved, so "in-between" their plays? So you would not be allowed to chain (Card Ejector) to anything during their turn, since it is not (Quick Effect) nor (Trigger Effect)?
If my opponent activates the effect of Heatsoul to draw 1 card, and in the same turn I manage to take control of it, can I activate its effect again when I control it?
So on crystal wing synchro dragon, it's once per turn (quick effect) to negate and destroy a monster effect can be used on the enemies turn and my turn?
Hello mate. Can I ask? Does the true draco monster, spell, and traps are soft once per turn? meaning can I activate them once per copy? Thank you so much. Planning to build true draco deck
You can only use each effect of "True Draco Apocalypse" once per turn. This means each effect can be used once per turn, even between multiple copies and negated activations will not let you try to use them again. I think so of the spells and traps say that. The monsters do not say use or the monsters name or the word activate. They're all soft once per turn, each face up copy can use its effect once per turn, even duplicates
I don’t think I fully understood, how do you identify a soft once per turn? And what about with cards that have a “one of the following” or “Either of these effects once per turn” clauses?
A soft once per turn says you can only do something once per turn but does not specify the cards name. Meaning each copy can do it once or if the card played leaves play and comes back then the new appearance can also be used once. Hard once means it specifies the effect with the card name Meaning if you have multiple cards with that name you can only use it with one of them. If a card says use once per turn even if it's negated it's once per turn has been used, if it says activated once per turn turn if specifically its activation is negated you can attempt to activate it again. One of the following sounds like your card has multiple options when you use it and regardless of what you pick it's been used once so if you use either you can't try to use the other. Idk the card you have in mind to be more specific then that. I thought the video covered all of these well on rewatch except for multiple effects at a time part as when I made this 6 years ago that was not a common occurrence.
With the danger monster cards, is the first part of the affect to reveal, then summon itself and draw a card a soft once per turn??? And then the second effect where it’s dicarded instead and gains a seperate effect a hard once per turn??
I understand but then I saw plays with Masked HERO Anki that for me sounds like a hard once per turn. (...) you can search "change" quick play, you can use this effect of "Masked HERO Anki" once per turn. Yet people use this effect again with another copy
@@LegacyCrusaders thanks, still it's wierd that even in duel links, game approved by konami have mistake like that, especially for a monster that was meta for 1,5 year
If for example, I have a True King of All Calamities on my field and I use it’s effect of turning all face up monsters on the field to one attribute, Once per turn. Does it last for both me and my opponents turn or just my turn then the effects resolve once it is my opponents turn?
If a card is once per turn does thar mean I can use the effect on my turn and when it's my opponents turn example naturia mole cricket to tribute for another naturia
They're different turns, so it can be used on each turn once, assuming it's legal to activate. Idk mole cricket, if it's a trigger and it can meet its trigger on both players turn, I don't see why not, if its a quick effect that can meet its conditions on both turns i don't see why not.
So, I think I get “soft” once per turn, and “hard” once per turn, but what do you call “you can only activate/use (whichever’s easier to explain) “x” once per turn, and only once per turn”, and how is it different from a “hard” once per turn?
Use is still hard or soft once per turn. Use just means that if the activation is negated you can't step the effect again that turn cause it was used, but if it says activate and the activation is negated you can still play the card cause you never activated it. Used means attempt, activate means not negated.

So why can odd eyes vortex dragons bounce effect be used multiple times a turn? Is it because after it is revived it’s place in a different monster zone?
You can't use it multiple times in a turn, not sure where you got the impression you could. Each of its effects are a hard once per turn, the card says you can use each effect of "Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon" once per turn. Its name in quotes.
Legacy Crusaders {Official}YT ah okay, I’ve seen someone say that you could blow up vortex, revive it, then bounce something else back. Thanks for clarifying
I really need an answer to this. If a hard once per turn goes off between 2 identical cards at the same time does the effect go off? Basically if I have 3 crimson nova the dark cubic lords on the field and have their 3000 burn damage effect occur at the same time at the end phase will it deal only 3000 or 9000? I hope I explained this correctly it’s hard to explain but easy to show
Legacy Crusaders {Official}YT I was going to just draw out my entire deck with stuff like pot of extravagance, summon all 3 novas and a performage hat tricker. The novas would burn for 9k and hat tricker would protect me from damage. Basically an ftk. But I guess it won’t work.
Mandatory trigger effects dont say the words "you can". But usually mandatory effects also have triggers and if there trigger doesnt come up you dont have to use them.
How does once per turn work for continuous trap cards. Like eternal soul. Does that mean that you can use it in your turn and opponents turn? Please i need help!
So what does it mean when a card says, "You can only use 1 of the following effects of 'card name' per turn, and only once that turn."? What does "Only once that turn" mean? Why would they put two 'hard once per turn' statements on a card?
Pretty sure that's pretty clear, you can only use one effect of a card with that name for the turn so it's a hard once for all of its effects collectively, either of them would mean its been used once and you couldn't use another even if another copy.
@@LegacyCrusaders Do you also think it correlates with maybe an opponent having the same card in a mirror match? That the "only once that turn" is indication of preventing your opponent from using the same effect of the same card in the same turn( your turn) as well? Sorry for all the questions. Im just trying to understand why Konami would have two of the same statement in a card text. They could've just stated the first "HOPT" and left it at that. Why add the additional "and only once that turn"? I keep thinking there is a deeper meaning to it in regards to ruling. Hopefully you understand where Im coming from. Appreciate the help!
Im not familiar with a card that can only be used once hard between two players although im sure they could exist. When it says "you" they are referring to that player, meaning yourself. But i get what you're asking.
Just wondering, can anyone tell me if the lair of darkness field spell can activate (on my opponent's turn) whenever I activate the trap card grinning grave virus (on my opponent's turn) in order to tribute one of their monsters for the grinning grave virus effect?? If so, can I, then, use the LOD field spell effect again on my turn that immediately follows??
Once per turn implies once during each players turn. This sometimes can only happen on your turn based on what the effect of the card is. Lairs tributing effect is a continuous effect so it really says if you would tribute a monster as cost to activate a card you can use their card. You can tribute a monster to pay a cost during either players turn so yeah it can be used on their turn, and there is nothing suggesting you then wouldnt be able to use it on your turn afterwards.
If what your saying is true on "Once per turn implies once during each players turn." why would there be cards that be stating "Once per turn, during either player's turn". Because from i've been searching things up in reddit and forums, people have mixed opinions and the most common thing I find are either, that people use "Once per turn" for both player turns, or that "Once per turn" is only applicable to the player that plays the card. So for instance if i were to use a card like Gale the whirlwind(Yes it is quite old) it states that the effect can only be used "Once per turn" and had friends using it on both turns to the point that i wasn't able to play a deck properly. However cards like Constellar Pleiades, that states "Once per turn, during either players turn" is shown. Thus wanting to know what the real rule is behind Once per turn, just because there are cards now that state "Once per turn, during either players turn" If cards like these did not exist, i would assume that "Once per turn" cards would be applicable to both player turns
Gale the Whirlwind is Speed Spell 1, and Ignition effect which is why it only can be used during its owners main phase, if it were a quick effect Speed Spell 2 you could use it once per turn during either players turn during any phase just like Constellar Pleiades.
Legacy Crusaders {Official}YT so for example cyber dragon infinity says once per turn take an attack position monster and take it as an xyz material can you do this during your opponents turn And eternal soul as well it says once per turn special summon a dark magician can you do this during your opponents turn? Please answer it’s a common thing me and my friend disagree on so it would be appreciated :)
So this is why a dragunity player can dump phalanx, bring it back with dux, use it's effect to special summon itself, summon vaj, use vaj to bring it back and sync for something else?
Thank you so much for this series. I've been absent from the game for quite some time I left around 2012 , not that I'm bank I'm hearing all this stuff about hard once per turns; just confusing. But I got it now if the card names itself in quotes, and states it can only be used once that turn then that particular effect, even if you have another copy, can only be used ONCE. But if it just says once per turn you can use it's the effect of the same card multiple times
Hey dude! Quick question.. So there was a duel in the Yugioh VRains series (Episode 10) where the protagonist (Playmaker/Yusaku) activated Encode Talker's effect on his opponent's battle phase.. (He did not activate this card's effect on the summon of it though) But on the card it says that Encode Talker's effect can only be activated "Once Per Turn" and I read this as "Once per YOUR turn) it sparked controversy when I would activate this in the same way in a real duel with friends. I was also wondering if you could legally activate a card's "once per turn" effect on your opponent's turn if you haven't already activated on your last turn? P.S I am aware that some cards say either "Once per turn" or "Once during either player's turn" this is just super confusing.
Once per turn doesn't mean once during your turn or your opponents turn. It means once during each and every turn regardless of whose turn it's used on or not. This is a trigger effect as it's an if effect and it triggers before damage calculation once per turn of both players when a monster this card points to battles during both turns regardless if it were used on the previous turn,
If it doesn't specify then it is all 3. Although when you see "Activation of a Spell or effect", it means just spell but it means when placed faceup as well as grave effects or trigger effects of already faceup spells.
Hope harbinger only refers to the activations on spells and the effects of spells but is one of the more notorious cards that lead to this type if confusion.
Man, keeping up with the how the text is worded in modern Yu-Gi-Oh, you would think some key words would be bold, or italics to emphasize key points. 😅
Been meaning to do more on PSCT, can't think of a way to make the thumbnail interesting or title interesting. Paul made a discussion on this on Team APS Plus, I think there should be a collection of video puzzles that can explain the different unusual words.
Hey mates, this was helpful but what about cards that say “you can only activate the effect of this effect once per turn”? I think it is.....🤔 Oh the controversy 😩 Also swords of revealing light in a triple threat match and free 4 all (4 person)
It says, when as certain thing occurs(the trigger) do something. And it's a normal spell so it can't be a quick effect, it has to be a trigger it continues effect, the words if and then also appear on trigger effects, continuous effects are also written in sentence. Triggers and effects are usually separated by a colon or period.
Face Down banished cards aren't public knowledge so their stats can't be used to affect another card based on their stats, so they aren't considered to be dinosaurs while banished face down. Although Eater of Millions effect bases his stats on cards that are specifically banished face down, and Gren Maju De Eza specifically cares that they are banished, which banished face down cards are. So sometimes a card will be affected by banished face down cards but not based on stats/name or type of the card.
Like if I had 2 balerdrochs on board and zombie world my opponent activates an effect balerdroch to negate and he activates another monster could I use the second balerdroch or no
Hey so I'm wondering what the difference is between (once per turn) and effects like (during either player's turn) ? Mainly me and my friend had an argument whether or not I could activate Gameciel on his turn to tribute his monster. I argued I could because It says once per turn, but he said that doesn't work because other cards don't let you unless it says either player's turn. I know that the gameciel play works on my turn because I've seen it played so many times but he doesn't believe me, how do I make a casual peon follow the actual ruling, or at least acknowledge that's the way the game is played LOL
Tributing an Opponents monster to summon a Kaiju is a non-activating effect, doesn't start a chain, that can only be used during your main phase, nothing on the card suggests it can be done during their turn, therefore you can't. Idk how to make people believe something, if its printed on the card they should take it as true, if its on the yugioh wiki it will also be true, there are no official ruling made anymore anywhere all card interactions are extrapolated from the original rulings of older cards which are correctly posted on the wiki. The summon of a Kaiju is a inherent summon (non-technical term) meaning doesn't start a chain and can be done during your main phase and you can tell that it is because it says where it is summoned from in (parenthesis) which is a new feature of problem solving card text, the way all cards are written to be interpreted consistently from card to card since a particular year, and his summon is an effect (technically) because he is a monster that can be normal summoned as well, the inherent summon of a monster that can only be summoned by the method listed on the card is not considered an effect so Infernoids summons are also inherent but are not technically effects as they can't be summoned in a different manner. His effect involving Kaiju counters can be used during wither players turn, because the card says so. A cards effect can be used on either players turn if it says, during either players turn which means its is a quick effect or it will just say, quick effect, making the card a speed spell 2 card meaning can be chained to cards that are speed spell 2 or lower. The other type of card that can be used on your opponents turn are trigger effects that can have it's trigger met on your opponents turn, i.e. when a monster is summoned, when this card is destroyed, and similar types of effects. Trigger effects are speed spell 1 and they are either if or when effects, if it's trigger effect is met it will activate at the start of a new chain as chain link 1 as this type of effect is speed spell 1 and cannot be chained to speed spell 2 or higher cards, if multiple trigger effects meet their trigger at the same time, i.e. a board of BA monsters is killed by dark hole, all the triggered cards will activate and form a chain where the effects will go in in this order, turn players mandatory effects, opponents mandatory effects, turn players optional effects, opponents optional effects, then the turn player has priority to respond with a speed spell 2 or higher card to the last card in that chain and so on as normal chain rules take a affect after all triggers have been activated.
awesome thanks for the reply! I was just wondering since my Legendary Six Samurai Shien could activate his effects on either player's turn to negate a spell/trap. If I was running escalation of the monarchs, would that allow one to gameciel on either turn?
The summon of Gameciel is not a regular tribute summon, if you use escalation to summon gameceil you need to tribute two monsters to summon it to your own field.
That means that, for example, if a monster required 2 tributes to be Tribute Summoned, you can deduct 1 of the required tributes needed to summon said monster. So, if Blue Eyes needs two tributes to be summoned, instead of needing two, now he only needs one to be summoned thanks to the specific card that grants/activates that effect. Look up the old school card "Cost Down" as an example.
Thank you, this is helping me with me as a judge

Been meaning to do more on PSCT, can't think of a way to make the thumbnail interesting or title interesting. Paul made a discussion on this on Team APS Plus, I think there should be a collection of video puzzles that can explain the different unusual words.
Also if you are a judge or know a judge, do you get judge bags for judging at regionals
I am not a judge, I do not know.
Hey mates, this was helpful but what about cards that say “you can only activate the effect of this effect once per turn”?
I think it is.....🤔
Oh the controversy 😩
Also swords of revealing light in a triple threat match and free 4 all (4 person)
So supply squad's effect only works on my turn?
Trigger effects will trigger during either players turn off their trigger is met. Supply squad can trigger on your opponents turn.
How do i know it is a trigger effect.
It says, when as certain thing occurs(the trigger) do something. And it's a normal spell so it can't be a quick effect, it has to be a trigger it continues effect, the words if and then also appear on trigger effects, continuous effects are also written in sentence. Triggers and effects are usually separated by a colon or period.
Thank you very much for your anwsers
@@LegacyCrusaders but if it got triggered in my opponent turn and another monster dies in my turn will it activate again?
Hello dude! I have a really big question, what happen with tyrano Infinity , if i activate pot of desires? Tyrano gains it's effect? Thanks .
Face Down banished cards aren't public knowledge so their stats can't be used to affect another card based on their stats, so they aren't considered to be dinosaurs while banished face down. Although Eater of Millions effect bases his stats on cards that are specifically banished face down, and Gren Maju De Eza specifically cares that they are banished, which banished face down cards are. So sometimes a card will be affected by banished face down cards but not based on stats/name or type of the card.
What about the new zombie boss monster doomking balerdroch
Like if I had 2 balerdrochs on board and zombie world my opponent activates an effect balerdroch to negate and he activates another monster could I use the second balerdroch or no
That effect is once per chain so no
Legacy Crusaders {Official}YT ok thank you it’s the first time I’ve seen a card like that so I was a bit confused
if i have 2 cynet recoveries on the field can i activate both of them when one of my link monsters is destroyed?
also what about the once per turn on Cynet universe?
because it says its name in quotes is once per turn you cannot use both, that is a hard once per turn.
It doesn't say it's name in quotation marks so it's a soft one per turn
What about cyber dragon infinity
Apply same logic discussed in video to card text and you will answer your own question, were you asking about a specific effect?
Can I use cyber dragon infinity both effect on one turn
@@CKG-hh2bw Nowhere does it say you can only use one effect so you can use both.
Hey so I'm wondering what the difference is between (once per turn) and effects like (during either player's turn) ? Mainly me and my friend had an argument whether or not I could activate Gameciel on his turn to tribute his monster. I argued I could because It says once per turn, but he said that doesn't work because other cards don't let you unless it says either player's turn.
I know that the gameciel play works on my turn because I've seen it played so many times but he doesn't believe me, how do I make a casual peon follow the actual ruling, or at least acknowledge that's the way the game is played LOL
Tributing an Opponents monster to summon a Kaiju is a non-activating effect, doesn't start a chain, that can only be used during your main phase, nothing on the card suggests it can be done during their turn, therefore you can't.
Idk how to make people believe something, if its printed on the card they should take it as true, if its on the yugioh wiki it will also be true, there are no official ruling made anymore anywhere all card interactions are extrapolated from the original rulings of older cards which are correctly posted on the wiki.
The summon of a Kaiju is a inherent summon (non-technical term) meaning doesn't start a chain and can be done during your main phase and you can tell that it is because it says where it is summoned from in (parenthesis) which is a new feature of problem solving card text, the way all cards are written to be interpreted consistently from card to card since a particular year, and his summon is an effect (technically) because he is a monster that can be normal summoned as well, the inherent summon of a monster that can only be summoned by the method listed on the card is not considered an effect so Infernoids summons are also inherent but are not technically effects as they can't be summoned in a different manner.
His effect involving Kaiju counters can be used during wither players turn, because the card says so.
A cards effect can be used on either players turn if it says, during either players turn which means its is a quick effect or it will just say, quick effect, making the card a speed spell 2 card meaning can be chained to cards that are speed spell 2 or lower.
The other type of card that can be used on your opponents turn are trigger effects that can have it's trigger met on your opponents turn, i.e. when a monster is summoned, when this card is destroyed, and similar types of effects. Trigger effects are speed spell 1 and they are either if or when effects, if it's trigger effect is met it will activate at the start of a new chain as chain link 1 as this type of effect is speed spell 1 and cannot be chained to speed spell 2 or higher cards, if multiple trigger effects meet their trigger at the same time, i.e. a board of BA monsters is killed by dark hole, all the triggered cards will activate and form a chain where the effects will go in in this order, turn players mandatory effects, opponents mandatory effects, turn players optional effects, opponents optional effects, then the turn player has priority to respond with a speed spell 2 or higher card to the last card in that chain and so on as normal chain rules take a affect after all triggers have been activated.
awesome thanks for the reply! I was just wondering since my Legendary Six Samurai Shien could activate his effects on either player's turn to negate a spell/trap. If I was running escalation of the monarchs, would that allow one to gameciel on either turn?
The summon of Gameciel is not a regular tribute summon, if you use escalation to summon gameceil you need to tribute two monsters to summon it to your own field.
What does 1 Less Tribute mean
That means that, for example, if a monster required 2 tributes to be Tribute Summoned, you can deduct 1 of the required tributes needed to summon said monster. So, if Blue Eyes needs two tributes to be summoned, instead of needing two, now he only needs one to be summoned thanks to the specific card that grants/activates that effect. Look up the old school card "Cost Down" as an example.
Thanks
This just confised me more
