When resolving a chain, as the cards resolve they are NOT sent to the Graveyard until the entire chain has resolved, or a card specifically destroys them. This is important for cards such as "Princess of Tsurugi" and "Secret Barrel" where the effect depends on the number of Spell & Trap Cards on the field. If you activate "Secret Barrel" and your opponent activates something as a chain, the chained card is included in the number (so if your opponent's only card on the field or in their hand is "Mystical Space Typhoon", and they chains "Mystical Space Typhoon" to "Secret Barrel", they still takes 200 damage). Monster Tokens are counted for "Secret Barrel". |
