Hey, thank you very much for the explanation. I feel like this game gets more and more complex every time new cards show up. I have a question, Why can the Overclock Digimons atack when suspended buy Vortex cant? Also, Why can they attack when suspended!!?
I think I understand it now. The reason overclock lets you attack when suspended is that the effect is letting you bypass the cost of attacking. The cost of declaring an attack is, of course always suspending your Digimon. by deleting a Digimon you substitute that for the cost of declaring that attack. Meaning that if your Digimon either isn’t suspended and you can make another regular attack afterwards. or if your Digimon is already suspended, you can make the attack since you are paying the cost for the attack by deleting your Digimon instead of suspending. Whereas with vortex it does not change the cost, the attack requirement still requires you to suspend, however, it lets you attack, even if you just summoned the Digimon, and you have to attack an opponents Digimon. Hopefully, this makes sense!
@@jimmymc1188 I thought there was a discussion about BT5 Guilmon not getting his ability off of dp reduction to 0, due to it being a game mechanic. I guess they must have changed it so yellow isn’t super unfair to purple
dp reduction is not deletion by effect, the ruling is that it's the game mechanic of the digimon being at zero dp is what's deleting it not the effect that reduced the dp.
This is what I got from my friend in the judge network hopefully it clarifies: Deletion by 0 dp is not an effect, it's a rule. So guilmon wouldn't get his effect. Bear in mind this is only for on deletion abilities that Read: if this card was deleted by an effect. Like BT5 Guilmon, hence the reason they stopped Using that phrasing with on deletion effects shortly after that set.
Overclock errata didn't change anything, just a translation error. It was always mandatory in japanese and that takes precedence.
Good to know, yah I guess alot of times it is just a translation error on the english side that causes most of the Erratas!

Deletion by effect, dp reduction counts

@DattMawson it's effect that deletes it, game mechanic come into effect when it can't be deleted by a effect
@@jimmymc1188No thats not it, if it Said cant be effected the it works, but the deletion isnt from effect its from the rules
