Lesson #21.1: Revealing/Public Knowledge/Look

Subject: Lesson #21.1: Revealing/Public Knowledge/Look Mon Dec 30, 2013 5:28 am

Hey everyone, Pride here. It's been a little bit, so I'm going to go ahead and post a new lesson. But because these lessons are rather small, I'm actually going to be posting two mini-lessons. So if for some reason the testing is changed and you need to complete the lesson, then you may do either.

This lesson's theme is all about, "revealing" or showing a card's face/picture/effect to both players.

Some basic things that everyone should know, that if a card is revealed, both plays may look at the card, (and read all of its information). This must be done in a quick manner though, so it doesn't hold up the duel.

Cards can't be voluntarily revealed however. They have to be revealed for card effects, costs, or to verify that an effect is actually what the opponent says it does/is.

If a card is already public knowledge, (It's been played already), it canned be revealed. This only applies in very unique circumstances, but for example, if someone were to have "Mind on Air" on the field face-up, (Eff: Your opponent must play with their hand revealed), and you wish to activate you "Golden Ladybug" card, (Eff: Reveal from your hand and gain 500 Lifepoints) this action cannot be activated and is impossible.

Revealing for Verification

This section is a very slippery and vague slope. It's important to pay close attention to effects so events like this don't happen.

Sometimes cards must be revealed to prevent cheating. However, if you're playing online, you have an advantage of just looking it up online.

When an effect requires a player to 'search' for a card of a specific type in the deck, that player must reveal their card to the opponent. If they do, then their opponent/you are permitted to read everything on the card, you aren't limited to only seeing the name.

In a case where an effect require the hand to be revealed, the opponent must reveal every card in the hand. For example if you were to use 'Eradicator Epidemic Virus', they must show you every card in their hand, even the monster cards!

Public Knowledge

During a duel, the following items are considered to be public knowledge, unless a card effect says otherwise. Duelists can verify these items at any time and must answer questions involving them truthfully.

- Both Duelists' current Life Points
- The number of cards in the hand, decks, graveyard, and banished zone. However, you may only look at your opponent's Graveyard and Banished cards!
- The ATK or DEF of a face-up monster.
- The 'printed effect' of a card if activated.
- Counters, such as 'Spell Counters' on a 'Royal Magical Library'.
- Or Notes, such as reminders such as to remember the effect of 'Gold Sarcophagus'.

You must ask permission to see cards! As dumb as that may be, obviously, it really only applies in real life.

Lesson #21.1: Revealing/Public Knowledge/Look Navi_Art

To 'look' at a card is to see the card's face. When looking at a card, the player is allowed to view the entire card. Before looking at an opponent's card, they must ask permission first, and the opponent is not allowed to refuse or ignore. (Real Life only)

At any time during the duel, players are permitted to look at any card that is 'Public Knowledge'.

Cards in either player's Main Deck and the opponent's face-down cards in play, in hand, and Extra Deck may not be looked at unless a card effect allows the player to do so. If an effect require the opponent to search for a card in their deck, the must reveal the card to the player! If they don't have a card in their deck to select, the opponent is allowed to ask the searcher to reveal their deck for confirmation.

After looking at cards, obviously they return to their original location and position. If cards in the Graveyard are being looked at, their order must not be changed.

Alright, so this was a little easier of a lesson, but this is the week's assignment. The lowest amount for this week is going to remain 100, but there's two lessons, so go crazy!

But the assignment is to find 10 different cards that say 'reveal' or 'look at'. It's a pretty easy lesson, but you can't use cards that others have listed!

Alright. This was half of the lesson. Follow this link - (Waiting to be Confirmed!) - for the other half!

Ceremonial Bell (Both players play with hands revealed as long as this card is face-up on the field.)

Respect Play (Same as Bell, except that's a monster, and this card is a trap.)

Koa'ki Meiru Sandman (I'm only doing one Koa'ki Meiru card because the entire/most of the Archetype needs a certain monster revealed to keep them alive.)

Monster Slots (By having a monster in your field and grave that are the same levels, by banishing the one (or one of them) from the graveyard, you draw a card and reveal it. If it's a monster that's the same level as the banished/one on the field, you can special summon the drawn monster. Otherwise, it stays in your hand as a regular draw.)

Ordeal of a Traveler (Whenever your opponent attacks, they call Monster Spell or Trap. If the card they pick out of your hand to see is not the right card, the attacking monster is returned to the hand. If it's the same type as called, the attack goes through unless something else gets in it's way.)

Wolf in Sheep's Clothing (If you receive damage from an opponent's monster's direct attack, (This is AFTER the attack and damage is done) reveal
a Level 1 monster in your hand and special summon it. Then add another monster of the same name to your hand)

Smoke Grenade of the Theif (If it's destroyed while equipped, you get to select and discard a card from opponent's hand.)

The Forceful Sentry (Look at your opponent's hand and shuffle one back into their deck.)

The Humble Sentry (Same as Forceful, except it's effect is directed at it's player!)

Confiscation (Pay 1000 to Look, select, and discard a card from your opponent's hand.)
