Explained
If a Spellcaster with 1850 original ATK is on the field, Special Summon it from your hand or GY (then only Spellcasters). When summoned, add a "Fairy Tail" Spell/Trap or "Fairy Tale Tails". Pay 500 LP to make an opponent's Effect Monster's name "Prince of Fairies".
In Fairy Tail decks as an extender and searcher.
- Forgetting the Spellcaster-only restriction applies even if the summon fails.
How it works
- Ignition, hand or GY: If a Spellcaster with 1850 original ATK is on the field, Special Summon this card. For the rest of the turn, you can only Special Summon Spellcaster monsters.
- When Normal or Special Summoned: Add 1 “Fairy Tail” Spell/Trap or 1 “Fairy Tale Tails” from your Deck (usable in the Damage Step).
- Ignition: Pay 500 LP; 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls has its name become “Prince of Fairies”.
Each effect is once per turn.
Rulings in plain English
Restriction: Starts after it resolves, and applies as long as it wasn’t negated, even if the summon didn’t happen.
Rename: Ends if that monster stops being face-up in the Monster Zone. You can pick a monster unaffected by monster effects, but nothing happens to it.
