My Masked HERO Anki declared a direct attack and my opponent used Drowning Mirror Force, I chained with a mask change, get another Masked HERO Anki on the field and it was returned to the deck when the chain resolved.
Yeah i know. I was referring to the "Counter" section on this page. You cannot "halt" the direct attack and chaining it with a mask change is pretty much pointless.
The only way to dodge such a card with a summon would be summoning in def position. Then it wouldn't be affected, but good luck to have it survive the next enemy turn.
