After I Summon a monster, can I use Yaichi's effect before my opponent can respond with Solemn Judgment?!
A monster is Summoned while Yaichi is face-up and the opponent has Solemn Judgment set.
No. Solemn Judgment must be activated in the summon negation window before the Summon is successful. If the Summon is successful, the turn player then gets priority to activate Yaichi.
If Yaichi would be destroyed and I replace it with another Six Samurai that is equipped with Spirit of the Six Samurai, what happens?!
Yaichi's destruction replacement effect would destroy another Six Samurai that is equipped with Spirit of the Six Samurai.
You can replace Yaichi's destruction by destroying the equipped Six Samurai, and Spirit of the Six Samurai can then be destroyed instead to protect it.
