Explained
When Normal or Special Summoned, send the top 3 cards of your Deck to the GY. If it's sent to the GY by a card effect, Fusion Summon by shuffling materials, including it, to the bottom of the Deck.
In Tearlaments decks as a Limited card (1 copy): it fills the GY and turns into a Fusion Summon.
- Activating the mill with 2 or fewer cards in your Deck. You can't.
- Using the Fusion effect in the Damage Step.
How it works
Status: Limited in the TCG (Sept 21, 2026 list), so you can run 1 copy.
- When Normal or Special Summoned: Send the top 3 cards of your Deck to the GY.
- If sent to the GY by a card effect: Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster by placing its materials from your hand, field, and/or GY, including this card from your GY, on the bottom of the Deck in any order.
Each effect is once per turn.
Rulings in plain English
Mill: Can be used in the Damage Step. You need 3+ cards in your Deck to activate; if there are 2 or fewer when it resolves, send them all.
Fusion effect: Not in the Damage Step. Materials go back first, then you Fusion Summon; not simultaneous. You can return a Fusion Monster as material to the Extra Deck, but you can’t summon that same monster with this effect.
