Explained

What it does

During the Main Phase (Quick Effect), Fusion Summon an "Artmage" Fusion Monster or "Nerva the Power Patron of Creation" using this card and monsters from your hand or field. If sent from the hand or field to the GY, add an Artmage Spell/Trap with a name not in your GY. While on the field, you can only Special Summon Fusion Monsters from the Extra Deck.

Play it when

In Artmage decks as a Fusion starter that also works on your opponent's turn.

Common mistakes
  • Forgetting it locks you to Fusion Monsters from the Extra Deck while it's on the field.

How it works

  • Continuous: You can’t Special Summon from the Extra Deck, except Fusion Monsters.
  • Quick Effect (Main Phase): Fusion Summon 1 “Artmage” Fusion Monster or 1 “Nerva the Power Patron of Creation” from your Extra Deck, using this card you control and monsters from your hand or field.
  • If sent from the hand or field to the GY: Add 1 “Artmage” Spell/Trap from your Deck with a different name from the cards in your GY (usable in the Damage Step).

Each of the last two effects is once per turn.

Rulings in plain English

Fusion effect: Materials first, then the summon; not at the same time. The summon still happens if the materials left the hand or field, even if they didn’t go to the GY.

Artmage Non-Finito, Nerva the Power Patron of Creation.
