Card Rulings:Effect Barrier


 * You can activate "Effect Barrier" when a Token is targeted as an attack target because Tokens are treated as Normal Monsters, but you cannot activate "Effect Barrier" when a Fusion, Synchro or Ritual Monster without effect is attacked.
 * Be a Tuner, Gemini, Spirit... Monster is not an effect. If your Normal Monster is attacked by a Effect Tuner Monster and you activate "Effect Barrier", your Normal Monster is not treated as a Tuner Monster. Idem for Spirit Monsters, etc.
 * If a Token copy the effect of a monsters than must send to the Graveyard or remove from play itself as a cost for activate its effect, you cannot activate this effect with your Token.
 * For example, if a Token is attacked by a monster like "" and you activate "Effect Barrier", you cannot activate its effect, because you must send "Rescue Cat" to the Graveyard for activate its effects, and a Token cannot be sent to the Graveyard.
 * Also, if a Token is attacked by a monster like "" and you activate "Effect Barrier", you cannot activate the third effect because you must remove from play "Shooting Star Dragon" for activate its effect, and a Token cannot be removed from play.
 * If a Gemini Monster treated as a Normal Monster is attacked by a Effect Monster and you activate "Effect Barrier", the Gemini Monster gains effects of attacking monster AND its effects as Gemini Summoned monster.
