ShineGreymon Burst Mode: Marcus Suspends, Everything Else Happens

Marcus Damon is a Tamer who becomes a Digimon, attacks, and gets paid for suspending. That single event draws you a card off the egg, takes 2000 DP off one of theirs, and digivolves one of your Digimon into a yellow Greymon card in your hand for nothing, which climbs you to the Lv.6 for nothing — the Lv.7 on top costs its honest printed 4. Then Burst Mode attacks by suspending your Tamers on purpose, for an extra security card each, and the chain runs again. Costs and card text are the printed ones.

Marcus Damon (BT12-092)4 Q&A

When the ＜Start Your Main＞ effect has this card also be treated as a Digimon, does this card get deleted when an opponent's effect reduces its DP to 0?

Yes, it's deleted.(Mar 28, 2024)

When the ＜Start Your Main＞ effect has this card also be treated as a Digimon and then this card is suspended, does that meet the "When this Tamer becomes suspended" condition in this card's ＜Your Turn＞ effect?

Yes, it is met. If this card's ＜Start Your Main＞ effect is activated, this card is treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer, so the "When this Tamer becomes suspended" condition is considered to be met when this card is suspended.(Mar 28, 2024)

When the ＜Start Your Main＞ effect has this card also be treated as a Digimon and then this Digimon is placed in another Digimon's digivolution cards by a "place 1 Digimon as another Digimon's digivolution card" effect, is this card treated as "a Digimon card in digivolution cards" during that turn?

No, it's not. This card's effect has the Tamer be treated as a Digimon. As soon as it is placed in another Digimon's digivolution cards, it is treated as just a Tamer card and any activated effects are lost.(Mar 28, 2024)

RizeGreymon (BT21-044)7 Q&A

Does this card's ＜All Turns＞ effect also trigger when a [Marcus Damon] treated as a Digimon is deleted?

Yes, it triggers.(Apr 4, 2025)

If a Tamer is treated as a Digimon using an "is also treated as a Digimon with X000 DP" effect and it activates an effect, is it treated as an effect of a Digimon or a Tamer?

When it activates an effect, it is considered both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect.(Apr 4, 2025)

Can I gain memory using an effect on a Tamer that's treated as a Digimon with X000 DP due to an effect while my opponent has "your opponent can't gain memory other than by Tamer effects" activated?

Yes, you can. When an effect is activated on a card that's treated as both a Digimon and a Tamer, the effect is treated as both a Digimon effect and a Tamer effect, therefore you can gain memory.(Apr 4, 2025)

GoalSuspend a Tamer, collect four times

GeoGreymon is standing at Lv.4 with Agumon and a Koromon egg in its digivolution cards, and both of those inherited effects trigger on a Tamer suspending, which is the thing this turn is about to do repeatedly. No Tamer is down yet. The memory is at 4, exactly what Marcus costs, both players are on 5 security, and Marcus Damon, RizeGreymon, ShineGreymon and ShineGreymon: Burst Mode are in hand.
