Explained
If you control "Fallen of Albaz" or it's in your GY, Special Summon this card from your hand. During the Main Phase it Fusion Summons a Level 8+ Fusion using monsters from your hand or field. In the End Phase, if a Fusion Monster was sent to your GY, add it back from the GY.
In Fallen of Albaz and Branded decks to Fusion Summon on your opponent's Main Phase.
- Summoning it without Fallen of Albaz face-up on your field or in your GY.
How it works
- From the hand: If you control “Fallen of Albaz” or it’s in your GY, Special Summon this card.
- Quick Effect (Main Phase): Fusion Summon 1 Level 8 or higher Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as material.
- End Phase (from the GY): If a Fusion Monster was sent to your GY this turn, add this card to your hand.
Each effect is once per turn.
When to use it
A Fusion Summon during your opponent’s Main Phase can disrupt them with your Fusion Monster’s effects. Many Branded Fusions go to the GY as part of their plays, so Cartesia often returns.
Rulings in plain English
Summon condition: Fallen of Albaz face-up on your field (Monster or Spell & Trap Zone) or in your GY.
Fusion: Materials first, then the summon. If materials go elsewhere than the GY, the summon still happens.
Return: Works even if Cartesia wasn’t in the GY when the Fusion Monster was sent, or if that Fusion Monster left the GY.
