[EN] Top Rule #01: Alliance - [Dragon Ball Super Card Game].
Hello everyone, my name is juste woëgle. I am a French judge and streamer, and welcome to my new channel, where I will make videos about the dragon ball super card game for now, sharing with you my list of decks and this new video format that I will make today.
What name is the top rule so let me introduce you to my new format called top rule what is the top rule I will ask you to choose a skill that you need more information about and how it works regarding the rules for this first video I have asked Peter the UK Head Judge from the London Players Guild who wanted me to make a video about the keyword skills alliance so this video will be written in this way firstly the explanation with the rules manual and then we'll talk about some specific decision point and interaction.
With OCTGN, so what is alliance alliance is an automatic keyword ability when a card with alliance attacks its owner can activate alliance by choosing one or more battle cars in the battle area with colors that match the colors specified by there as part of its ability cost, so normally alliance works the same as all automatic abilities when this card attacks, so let's see how it works using the rules manual for when your opponent activates the abilities of a counterattack, so the first step when you attack with your alliance card.
It is a trigger when this card attacks, so its alliance trigger enters pending until its activation and resolution, then comes the moment of the counterattack where the counterattack abilities are activated and resolved and finally the control point where you can activate and resolve the automatic abilities that were pending so now I will show you how it works using octgn so you have your full power broly with Alliance on your board and you have some green and red battle cards so in the first case if your opponent doesn't have counters, then you swing your broly, then the alliance abilities go into waiting for your opponent not to have any counter checkpoints that activate and resolve the alliance so we can choose any number of battle cards that the colors match the colors so red and green alliance so your card should be red or green cards can be red monkey green red green u another color combo that has at least green or red in its colors, like this android 21 that is blue green and there are some cards that match the alliance, like with this ss gogeta when this card is s sorcerer to rest mode by alliance deal some damage to your opponents so let's see now when your opponents have counter attack so swing broly the alliance goes into slope and my opponents activate dimension magic so negate an untap two and then negate the ability during checkpoint triggers and resolves so I choose whatever number of my battle cards are green or red changed to rest mode and got the abilities for the second counter, so broly attacks the alliance waiting for my opponents to activate and enrage gohan's awakening, so this counterattack ko is my attack battle card, but what? how does it work if my battle card is no longer here afterwards? activate the alliance alliance skills are pending, so it will be activated and resolved during the checkpoint so you can change the battle cards and for example change this gogeta SS to deal damage to the third counterattack of your opponents, so swing the broly alliance awaiting my opponent.
Active is all you have so let's see if we only have two battle cards, he active is all you have attack is negate and my two battle cards have their power drops to zero and below, so which are placed in drop area, so now when you activate and resolve alliance abilities during checkpoint, there is no more target, so alliance abilities will not resolve, so the broly alliance is pending and my opponents play.
