TCG Rulings[]

  • The effect of “Black Whirlwind” starts a Chain. If an effect is chained, so that the Summoned “Blackwing” monster is no longer face-up on the field when the effect of “Black Whirlwind” resolves, you cannot add a monster to your hand.[1]
  • Black Whirlwind” looks at the ATK of your newly-Summoned monster as it is on the field. If a Field Spell Card is increasing the monster’s ATK, you can search your Deck for a “Blackwing” monster that has less ATK than the increased ATK value.[1]
  • If you control multiple “Black Whirlwinds,” you can activate all of their effects. They form a single Chain, and you add 1 “Blackwing” to your hand as each one resolves.[1]
  • If control of the Summoned “Blackwing” monster shifts during or before resolution of “Black Whirlwind,” you can still add a card to your hand because you can still see the ATK.[1]

OCG Rulings[]

  • You cannot add a monster to your hand that has the same ATK as the Normal Summoned monster.[2]
  • "Black Whirlwind" can only add to your hand a monster with less ATK than the ATK of the Normal Summoned monster. It cannot add a monster with equal ATK. When you Normal Summon "Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind" and you do not have a monster with less than 1300 ATK in your Deck, then you cannot activate the effect of "Black Whirlwind".[5]
  • If you control multiple copies of "Black Whirlwind", then you can activate all copies as a chain when a "Blackwing" monster is Normal Summoned.[6]
    • Example: If you control two copies of "Black Whirlwind", then you can add two monsters to your hand when you Normal Summon a "Blackwing" monster.[6]
