« on: March 12, 2025, 10:50:13 pm »Relay (Japanese: リレー Riree, displayed as Ｒｅ on Japanese cards) is a new monster card ability for the Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters card game created by Lyris. If a Relay monster(s) is used as a material, including Tributes for a Tribute Summon, the Summoned monster gains any lingering effects applied to that Relay monster(s). If a Relay monster is Summoned using a material(s), it gains any lingering effects applied to its material(s).
- Lingering effects include restrictions, stat changes, battle changes like having 2 or no attacks, drawbacks like "Return it to the hand during the End Phase", effect negations, and more.
- Continuous Effects-- such as quantity changes which exclusively affect the activating monster, as well as effects given by Field Spells like Sorcerous Spell Wall, most Equip cards, and most Continuous cards-- are not counted as lingering effects by Relay monsters.
