Explained
A Link-4 from 2+ monsters with different names. When Link Summoned, discard 1 card to Set a Spell/Trap from your GY, then draw 1 if it was co-linked. Special Summoned monsters on the field can't activate effects unless they're linked.
It can't be used in Advanced Format; it's Forbidden in the TCG.
- Activating the Set card the same turn. It can't be activated that turn.
How it works
Status: Forbidden in the TCG (Sept 21, 2026 list), so it can’t be used in Advanced Format.
Materials: 2 or more monsters with different names.
- When Link Summoned (once per turn): Discard 1 card, then target 1 Spell/Trap in your GY; Set it to your field (it can’t be activated this turn). Then, if this card was co-linked when the effect was activated, you can draw 1 card.
- Continuous: Special Summoned monsters on the field can’t activate their effects, unless they’re linked.
Rulings in plain English
Set and draw: Set first; the draw is only possible if the card was Set and this was co-linked at activation. Not simultaneous.
