Card-specific notes from database
- Placing the Continuous Trap face-up is not treated as activating a Trap Card, so this effect can be activated and applied even while effects preventing Spell/Trap activations are applying (Konami neuron).
- When resolving the banish effect, you can choose a card that is unaffected by card effects (along with another card); only the affected card is banished. You cannot choose a card that cannot be banished (Konami neuron).
- While unaffected by activated effects, this card is still affected by continuous effects (e.g., Skill Drain, Crackdown) and lingering effects applied outside of a Chain's resolution (e.g., Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon's End Phase effect) (YGOResources).
- If this card activates its once-per-turn banish effect, and is later flipped face-down then face-up, or temporarily banished and returned to the field, it can activate that effect again during the same turn (YGOResources).
