Official Q&A

1. Q.This card's effect reads, "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less. If no Digimon was deleted by this effect..." How does this effect work, exactly?

   A."If no Digimon was deleted by this effect" refers to times where, when is activated, your opponent doesn't have a Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less in play, or an effect makes it so that there are no Digimon you can delete. Essentially, it means there was no Digimon in play that could be deleted by "Delete 1 of your opponent's Digimon with a play cost of 6 or less."

3. Q.My opponent has 2 Digimon in play with play costs of 6 or less. One of them has an effect that reads, "This Digimon can't be deleted by your opponent's effects," while the other does not. If I activate this card's , can I choose the Digimon that "can't be deleted by your opponent's effects" in order to trash the top card of my opponent's security stack?

   A.Yes. Digimon with play costs of 6 or less are valid targets. If you choose it, the "can't be deleted by your opponent's effects" will prevent it from being deleted, allowing you to trash the top card of your opponent's security stack instead.
