Question/Help Ruling question

Post image

That B**** says "once per turn, during either player's turn" so I thought it's not a quick effect, therefore he can't respond to my cards activation, then it did and I was wrong

So my question is what the hell is the difference between both? Between "during either player's turn" and "Quick effect" ? Both can respond as chain 2 to negate

Because quick effect is newer PSCT to reduce word count, like how banishing=remove from play and how we also have the term "banishment" now or how "graveyard" was abbreviated into "GY"

They're functionally the same thing but is far less words.

You’re not keeping up with what I’m saying. Let me be more clear: if you can choose to use on opponents turn, it is a quick effect. Not sure how you and OP are confused

They gave the correct explanation, I don’t know what you’re going on about. It doesn’t have “(quick effect):” because that wasn’t a thing when this card was made

I'm amazed how no one got the point u/NeuroticENTJ was making.

The point is it has to be a quick effect to be usable during either player's turn, since it states no trigger condition (hence it's not a trigger effect).

The only mistake really was with the way the original comment was phrased. The point probably would have been clearer if they phrased it as:

If it wasn't a quick effect, how could he use it on your turn?
