Can Royal Oppression negate Grinder Golem and/or its Tokens?!
Grinder Golem is being Special Summoned.
Oppression can negate the Special Summon of Grinder Golem. The Tokens are part of the Summon procedure and remain on the field even if the Summon is negated.
If Grinder Golem's Summon is negated by Royal Oppression, do the tokens still remain?!
Grinder Golem is Special Summoned while Royal Oppression is used.
Yes. The tokens are Summoned as a cost, so they remain even if the Summon is negated.
