Damage step question

Post #1 by Vernor20 » Thu Dec 29, 2022 4:28 am

I inflict battle damage with "Dark Scorpion - Chick the Yellow" and activate this effect "Target 1 card on the field; return that target to the hand."
If Robbin' Goblin is on the field, which happens first? Sort of a continious effect vs ignition question.

Roblin Goblin CL1 due to being mandatory, Chick the Yellow CL2 being optional. Pretty sure that is how it goes.

Renji is correct. Both are Trigger effects (not ignition or continuous), but since Robbin' Goblin is mandatory, whereas Chick is optional, it will always activate first.
