Need a ruling on a TLM card...

[Spoontang]

Here's the situation:

I have [Banisher of the Light] and [Survivor from Another Dimension] both face-up in my monster zone. In my Spell/Trap Zone, I have an [Ectoplasmer] face-up.

When I reach my end phase, I offer [Survivor from Another Dimension] as a tribute to fulfill [Ectoplasmer]'s effect, doing 900 damage to my opponent. However, since [Banisher of the Light] is face-up on the field, [Survivor from Another Dimension] is removed from play instead.

Now, since [Survivor from Another Dimension] went from the field directly to the removed from play zone, does this fulfill his the conditions of his effect, allowing me to Special Summon him to the field in that same End Phase?

Thank you all for the answers!

[16.5th dimension]

it should,

think wmc, you can't do the damage cus it never touched the grave.

and DD scout plane, if removed from play during an end phase, you can summon it during the same end phase.

[colt45]

I would believe that he would come back from being removed.

I've got a deck based on this combo, and I need to know that it works...

Linkage to it is here. (http://www.pojo.biz/board/showthread.php?t=148946)

That's not a loop. He'd some back the same way Malice Doll would, cept quicker.

[Spoontang]

I know it's not a loop, I just mean that Survivor from Another Dimension would come back in the same end phase, leaving me without a hurt field prescence...

I need a picture of "D. D. Survivor", while he's on topic... :D

Thank you.

Being the first time I've seen him, I think his art would've looked better if they didn't have that rag all around him...

Yeah, it'd come back at your end phase ^_^

[Duzell]

Thank you.

Its not a rag, look closer, it's the pieces of the dimesion torn and inside out covering him.

[n2thez]

yep that combos perfectly legal

[Warakia]

Yeah, not a loop but a good combo anyway. :p

Doll of Attachments would work better because he can't die during your oponents turn like Survivor most likely will.

[Spoontang]

I assume you mean Malice Doll of Demise (I'm JPN-name illiterate)? That wouldn't work out in this deck, since RFG'ing it would mean that it won't come back.

In addition, during my opponent's turn, there's just about no way to kill Survivor...the only two ways are to bounce him to my hand or to flip him face-down and kill him with something like NoC, Mystic Swordsman, or Sasuke Samurai...if he dies in battle, or by an effect, or is DDA'd/DDWL'd, he'd just come back at the end of my turn.

[cyber ape]

Eh, everybody calls it "Tenacious Killer Doll"

The only Japanese name worth saying is Cyclone, because honestly, Cyclone is a pimp name.

[The Bat-Man]

This is true. Cyclone is beast.

Now on the topic of this move,

A) Its legal.

B) It works better for your deck.

[The Punisher]

So, do we have an infinite loop in our hands now?

[Spoontang]

No, because Ectoplasmer only works once per turn.

[dotdotdot]

But, we do have a nice perm damage combo

Which takes like 3-4 cards to complete, the original Doll+ Ecto only needs two so it's way easier to pull off correctly. You just need a defense in that one, like a Marshmellon or Soul Hunting Spirit.

At least Survivor has a higher rate of survival in this situation. As long as you can keep Banisher there, it won't go away. Kinda like a bad rash or something.

Without any support though, banisher is most likely dead within a turn or two...
