Rulings

edisonformat.net ●“Star Blast” does not target. ●When its effect resolves, choose a monster on the field or in your hand. ●Paying Life Points is a cost. “Star Blast” can't be activated while “Spell Economics” is on the field, since you can't pay costs. ●If you use “Star Blast” on a monster in your hand and then Set that monster, its Level is still reduced and will be reduced when it is flipped face-up. ●You can't use “Star Blast” on a face-down monster you control on the field. If a monster affected by “Star Blast” is face-up on the field, and is then flipped face-down (with “Book of Moon”, etc.) then the effect of “Star Blast” is wiped and the monster’s Level returns to normal. ●If you activate “Star Blast” but have no monsters to use it on when its effect resolves, your opponent can look at your hand to confirm that you have no monsters in your hand. ●You can't reduce a monster’s Level below 1 and you can't over-pay for “Star Blast”. ●You can't select a Level 1 monster for “Star Blast”. ●If you paid 1000 Life Points, you can't select a Level 2 monster, etc. ●If you had an appropriate monster to use “Star Blast” on, paid the Life Points, but no longer have an appropriate monster when “Star Blast” resolves, its effect disappears. ●The maximum Life Points you can pay for “Star Blast” is based on the maximum Level of legal choices you have available at the time. You can't over-pay. ●If “Majestic Mech – Ohka” has its Level reduced to 4 or lower with “Star Blast”, and it is Summoned without Tribute because it is now a Level 4 or lower monster, its effect to send itself to the GY does not activate. edisonformat.com No edisonformat.com ruling available.
