Similarly, chaining the effect of "IP: Masquerena" to Link Summon " Knightmare Unicorn", " Knightmare Cerberus" or " Knightmare Phoenix" during your opponent's turn in response to a card played by them can result in that card being removed or destroyed before it's effects can activate. Branded Fusion Chain 1, IP Masquerena Chain 2 in response, Branded Fusion brings Lubellion, then Masquerena Links and then Lubellion starts a new chain if his effect is activated? This card is an optimal material for the Link Summon of certain monsters, making them even more powerful and competitive in comparison with scenarios without this card: Any two monsters will do to make this Link 2, just can’t be Link Monsters. Link Summon during your opponents turn into something higher than a Link 2 and added protection against destruction effects is something every player wants to do if Link Summoning. You swap a smaller monster with a bigger one that likely will have an effect(s) that benefit you, and now you give them protection to help keep them on the field until your turn. Either Main Phase of your opponent will do, Main Phase 2 may end up better if your incoming monster has less ATK than monsters on the field, but if you’re going into Link 4 that won’t matter.

So for example, if I activate Masquerena in response to a Branded Fusion that brings Lubellion would this be correct: Art: 4.75/5 I’d like a little more bright/color in this, while she is pretty, I’m still longing for a bit more. I’m also not seeing much masquerade in here, which disappoints me, given the name. But she’s playful and having a good time. Art-4.5/5- Could’ve been a U.A., and would’ve been good to see some more support for that archetype. I am extremely confused and somewhat frustrated. I am sure this has already been discussed, but why can IP Masquerena link into Underworld Goddess of the Closed World? IP reads Während der Main Phase deines Gegners kannst du (Schnelleffekt): Sofort nachdem dieser Effekt aufgelöst wurde, beschwöre 1 Linkmonster als Linkbeschwörung und verwende dafür Material, das du kontrollierst, darunter diese Karte. Du kannst diesen Effekt von „I:P Maskerena“ nur einmal pro Spielzug verwenden. Ein Linkmonster, das diese Karte als Material verwendet hat, kann nicht durch Karteneffekte deines Gegners zerstört werden.The play in question is this: I have some boss monster, and IP activates effect and uses my monster as link material to summon Underworld Goddess who allows it, but IP shouldn't. Borrelsword Dragon", that cannot be destroyed by battle, making it more difficult to take it off the field. We now go from a powerful boss monster, to a much smaller Link Monster that lets you play during the opponent’s turn in I:P Masquerena.

Underworld Goddess of the Closed World", by using an opponent's monster during their turn, especially a monster that is unaffected by card effects, and negating their effects. But I am confused if Lubellion gets the chance to extend the Chain to 3 with his on summon fusion effect before Masquerena resolves.
