Question is what is the question...

[AbbatonStrikes]

I think this is an interesting enquiry when do you use Question Marks in the ATK/DEF part and when do you use Zeros???

 

Example:

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Great_Maju_Garzett

This has zeros onm both ATK and DEF points as the increase is determind by the cards effect.

BUT

http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Maju_Garzett

This card also has its ATK points controlled by its effect, so why is one a 0 and the other a ?

Could someone explain so I know which one to use!!

So your saying Question mark is used when tribute of monsters increases ATK/DEf points and zero is used when its a card effect like how many Dragon-Type cards are in the Graveyard for example??

[ayy lmao]

Yes.

It doesn't matter. OCG is bullcrap, because Konami can't keep consistency in their cards. Use either.

So very true.

 

But generally speaking, 0 in itself is an ATK/DEF, that is later changed. ? simply means that it doesn't have an ATK/DEF, and needs to be determined by its card effect.

 

If ? is not changed by a card effect, it is still considered 0. Go figure.

in the case of the question mark and zero if you read the effect only the ATK is determined so the DEF is always zero but tha ATK can change.

0 Would be the Original ATK/DEF on a card and is later or right away strengthened' date=' While a card with ? ATK/DEF means its ATK & DEF it gets from its Effect become its Original ATK & DEF.

I already explained this.

The Tributing and Effect rules are true.

 

However, the main difference is that ? ATK/DEF monsters cannot be searched for by cards that are based on ATK/DEF like "Sangan" or "Mystic Tomato", while 0 ATK/DEF monsters can.

 

It's a subtle restriction that limits some cards' useablity by making them harder to get into your hand.

[ayy lmao]

When it has Zero it is determined by the cards effect.When it has a question mark I think it's ATK and DEF is added up together by the cards that were offered to summon it.
