High attack and good defense.

Use Ritual Raven and Contract with the Abyss to make it easier to summon.

Ritual Summon has always (and still) means bringing out strong ritual monsters.

Although, how good the ritual monster is, varies greatly.

You're trying to put this card in a deck anon? Good luck

Why does this card even says ''This card can ONLY be Ritual Summoned with the Ritual Spell Card, "Zera Ritual".'' When you also can ritual summon it with ''Contract of the Abyss''. It is the same BS as with ''Garlandolf, King of Destruction''.

I think it's just an oddity that dates back to the days when the only way to summon a Ritual Monster was with their designated Ritual Magic. Seems weird that they didn't release an errata for it though.

That wording was never intended to be a "you can't use any other Ritual Spell" restriction (heck, that wording was still in place in Dark Crisis, which introduced both Contract with the Abyss and a DARK Ritual Monster).

It's just a simple modification of the typical "You can only Special Summon this card by..." text since it works the same way as any other semi-nomi.

One of the NPCs attacked my facedown defense position Silent Magician and took out all my life points. How did that happen? Doesn't defense position protect your life points?

Probably had a card which had piercing effect

Contract of the abyss card should let you do ritual summon ANY DARK RITUAL monster right? I've put the card set, got 2 4 lvl monster, & 1 cakra (dark ritual monster lvl 8) on the hand. The abyss card wont activate at all & I cant summon cakra, why is that??? My oponent got only 1 monster with no special skill. Is this card a fraud?? Can someone help me figure this out please?

You can only ritual summon a monster with contract of the abyss if you tribute a monster with the SAME level, (exactly equal), read again tve description of the card bro

"You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels exactly equal the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon"

Last time I checked, 4 + 4 = 8.

Chakra is a lv 7 monster.

Why is this set of cards ALWAYS in the starting hand? No matter who I play, even when their deck is diverse, they have this ritual set up, ready to summon, on the first turn!

Same here. The game is obviously based toward its own NPCs.

Does the "only ritual summoned" imply that it cannot be special summoned in any manner?

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

"can only be summoned by..." (and similar wording such as in this case) means the monster can be Special Summoned in any matter, as long as it has been Summoned in the described way before (of course, sending it to the deck or hand "resets" this) (including substitutes of course, such as Contract with the Abyss).

Thanks

Just tried to summon chakra and I had resurrection of chakra in my hand along with garlandolf and another ritual monster with 8 stars. Laid down resurrection of chakra and it only let me set the card and not activate the effect for some reason. There were no cards on the field saying I couldn't use spell cards etc. glitch maybe?

maybe you played against Vagabond who forbids you to Special summon?

I just used contract of the abyss to summon zera but it wouldn't let me use another ritual monster to summon him had to use 2 4 stars

Only Crab Turtle has 8 stars, Contract requires exact levels.
