Question

> Draw until you have 3 cards in your hand, also for the rest of this turn after this card resolves, your opponent takes no damage. During the End Phase of this turn, send your entire hand to the Graveyard. You can only activate 1 "Card of Demise" per turn. You cannot Special Summon during the turn you activate this card.

So if I have 5 cards in my hand and I use this card, I have 4 cards in my hand. Can I draw all of my cards because I cannot draw until I have 3?
I can only draw until I run out of cards, because I have more than 3 cards.

Right?

So if I paired it with a card that makes the effect go to the opponent, then he would lose due to having zero cards in his deck.

Right?

You can't activate it period if your hand size is greater than 3.

Where does it say that?

It's the way the game mechanics work, the phrase "Draw until you have X amount" Means that you can't activate it if you're above that amount.

It's general rules, sorry your weird.... Whatever doesn't work.

It's semantics.

Draw until you have X

or do you mean

Draw until you have X unless you already have X?
X does not equal X+1

The card tells me to keep drawing until I have 3 cards in my hand. Well, I'm waiting and I'm pulling these cards out, waiting for this 40 card hand to magically turn into 3 cards, but it can't.

Let's say that's the last card in your hand, you play it, then you draw three cards.

That's how it works.


You CANNOT activate it if you have more than 3 cards in hand.

End of discussion.

Where does it say that? I can't find any legitimate ruling on it.
What stops me from activating it? The card doesn't say anything about requirements for the usage of the card.

Look up a video if you don't believe me, look up cards with similar wording.

It doesn't work the way you think it does. Sorry

That's what I'm doing I can't find anything on it.

Not trying to be a dick, Just confused on a judgement for some friends.

yugioh cards are not the most clearly written things and you're over thinking this because of it. wouldn't everyone just run card of demise exodia if you can just draw your entire deck that easily?

Don't bother, this is just what he does. He's done this thread a few times with MtG.

It's just that the wording is "Draw until" which makes me think that I am forced to do an action.

The action is pick up cards from the main deck.

The restriction is until I have Three cards in my hand.

If it said "Draw until you have three cards. Unless it is impossible."

Pull on a tail
until it becomes an elephant.
What if there is no elephant?


Uhh? I post on X more than TG. Haven't played yugioh since 2004.

>It's just that the wording is "Draw until" which makes me think that I am forced to do an action.
in yugioh if you can't execute the action you would be forced to you can't activate the card
So while "Draw until you have 3 cards in your hand" means that you can't stop on one or two cards you also can't activate if you have 3 or more cards in your hand because it would be like trying to use Monster Reborn without any monster on the graveyard

Yes, you can't stop on 1 or 2 cards. You can only stop at 3 cards. so if you have 4 then you play it, that makes 3 + 1 + 1 x infinity.

You can execute the action: Draw cards.

You but the restriction is null, up until 3.

It does not say anywhere that you have to have 3 or less cards in your hand to play this card.

Typo with the you in the third line.

you are irredeemably retarded

please proceed to the nearest depopulation camp

It assumes that you understand the implied rule of "you get nothing if you already have more than 3 cards" the same way it assumes you know that you draw from your own deck and not your opponent's.

unless now you also can resurrect something that was never dead your combo doesn't work

You can execute the ACTION, the ACTION is drawing cards.

the RESTRICTION is until you have 3 cards in your hand.

Not up until 3 cards in your hand.

Not if you have 3 or more then negate the spell.

But keep drawing.

That's not how Yugioh works mate, people have already tried telling you this. Go find the comp rules instead of wasting everyone's time.

so if think that's how it works try explaining to me how you can resurrect a monster if there are no cards on either graveyard with Monster Reborn
the thing stopping you in both cases is the same rule so if can't figure this one out your combo is also false

They should really word their cards better, and not promote such meta gaming in the anime then.

It would've worked great with a Relinquished deck.

In that case if you used monster reborn, it would just do nothing. and go the grave yard. It's not making you do an action. It says Resurrect a monster card from your graveyard. "Oh, none there."

But if they say "Draw until you have three" and you have 4 then you can draw every card in the deck.

what are you getting out of this

is your life so devoid of meaning that you get off by trolling a mongolian pornographic pictogram collective at 3 in the morning

and you are wrong
the game doesn't allows you to activate monster reborn with no monster card on either graveyard the same way you can't use Card of Demise if your hand is more than 3
you are just refusing to understand a rule and them blaming on the game
go troll some other card game please

it doesnt say a total of 3 cards in your hand. even if you have 10 cards in your hand, its not wrong to say there are currently 3 cards in your hand.
