Shield & Sword

Ref: MRD-E131

When this Magic Card is activated, for one turn, each face up Monsters original ATK becomes their original DEF and vice-versa. Any additions or subtractions to ATK and / or DEF due to card effects are applied to the new ATK and DEF. Monsters summoned after this card's activation are excluded.

A very powerful card when used in conjunction with a high defence strategy Deck. A wall of high defence Monsters can be switched to attack with devastating effect. Normal Magic Cards are often very powerful. Their effect can be activated as soon as they are placed in the Magic and Trap Card Zone, or they can be Set there for later use, and they are destroyed as soon as the effect has been applied. You cannot have more than 5 Magic and Trap Cards in the Magic and Trap Card Zone.
