Is "[Digivolve] While you have 2 or fewer security cards, [Gabumon]: Cost 3" a digivolution requirement added by an effect while I have 2 or fewer security cards?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
No, this is a standard digivolution requirement for a Digimon card. It references the number of your security cards, but it's not an effect.
Can I use <Blast Digivolve> to digivolve my [Gabumon] into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards and an opponent's Digimon attacks?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
Yes, you can. Digivolution is possible as long as you have 2 or fewer security cards when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 2 or fewer security cards, then an effect adds a card to my security stack so my security stack has 3 or more cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
No, it can't. Digivolution from [Gabumon] isn't possible because the digivolution requirements aren't met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If an opponent's Digimon attacks when I have 3 security cards, then an effect removes a card from my security stack so my security stack has 2 or fewer cards when I use <Blast Digivolve>, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand?
Show ruling
Official Ruling
Yes, you can. Digivolution from [Gabumon] is possible as long as the digivolution requirements are met when you use <Blast Digivolve>.
If I use an effect such as P-103 [Offense Training]'s <Delay> that digivolves a Digimon, can my [Gabumon] digivolve into this card in the hand when I have 2 or fewer security cards?
