Generally, no. Synchro Monsters are initially Special Summoned FACE-UP. Therefore, there is not a need for it to be Flip Summoned. However, that Synchro Monster may be affected by a card effect such as Book of Moon. In this case, the Synchro Monster is changed to face-down Defense Position. You can then Flip Summon it when possible.

You may Flip Summon as many face-down monsters on your turn as you wish in your Main Phases when no card effects are in a chain. To Flip Summon, all you do is flip your monster from face-down Defense position into face-up Attack position.

However, you can't Flip Summon a monster that you had summoned or set in the same turn. (So, if you summon a monster and a card effect flips it face-down, you can't Flip Summon it in the same turn). You also can't Flip Summon a monster that declared an attack that turn. (So, if your monster declared an attack and your opponent activated Book of Moon, then you can't Flip Summon your face-down monster in Main Phase 2.)

You can only tribute monsters on your side of the field, unless an effect specifically lets you. Soul Exchange is one card that can do it, so can Lava Golem.

Can you flip summon magician of faith and use its flip effect and then attack?

Assuming the Magician of Faith was set a previous turn, then yes, that's legal. You can flip summon it in Main Phase 1, triggering its flip effect. This in no way stops it, or any other monster declaring an attack in the Battle Phase.


Can you Flip Summon a monster in Main Phase 1 if it was flipped face-down by a card effect also during Main Phase 1 in Yu-Gi-Oh?

The short answer is no. The long answer is: When your face-down defense position card is attacked, only then does it go to face-up defense position. All other times, when you flip it yourself, it goes into face-up attack position.


Does your opponent's monster's effect still activate if you chained Book of Moon to set it in Yu-Gi-Oh?

No. One of the conditions placed upon Flip Summons is that the monster can not have declared an attack that turn - even if the attack was negated or otherwise halted. If a monster declares an attack and Book of Moon is used to turn it face-down, then as it declared an attack, you are unable to Flip Summon it that turn.


Can you summon a monster after you attack?

Yes you can but only if you have not summoned a monster already that turn. You can only summon or set a monster once per turn. You can summon a monster during main phase 1 or main phase 2 Draw phase Standby phase Main phase 1 Battle phase Main phase 2 End phase


Can you summon a monster in face-up defense position?

A Normal Summon is face-up attack mode, a regular Set is face-down defence mode. You cannot Normal Summon or Flip Summon into face-up defence position unless an effect like Light of Intervention lets/makes you. Unless specified though, a Special Summon can be face-up attack or face-up defence position. However you can't special summon face-down unless an effect lets/makes you.

Can you have a flip summon and normal summon in the same turn?

Yes, this is legal. You may perform one Normal Summon or set per turn, and as many Flip Summons as you wish.However you cannot Flip Summon a monster Set that turn, nor if you Flip Summon a monster, turn it face-down in the same turn using an effect, can you Flip Summon it again that turn. Lastly if a monster declares an attack, and is flipped face-down in response, it cannot be Flip Summoned that turn.


Can you manually Flip Summon your monsters the same turn they were Set by your opponent's Book of Eclipse during your Main Phase in Yu-Gi-Oh?

Yes, as long as the monster wasn't summoned in that same turn. If you summon a monster, and the opponent Sets it, you can't flip summon it that turn. If you'd summoned it on a previous turn, and the opponent Set it, then you can Flip Summon it.Book of Eclipse is best used in the battle phase, since the player has to wait until main phase two to flip summon, missing the chance to attack.


Can you flip up the monster that effected by the card to flip down in the same turn?

You can manually change the battle position of a monster once per turn, (but not on the turn it was set or summoned from hand) If you flip a monster face down with Book of Moon or use the effect of Sonic Bird, then you are allowed to flip summon them in the same turn.

Can you Flip Summon a monster in Main Phase 1 if it was flipped face-down by a card effect also during Main Phase 1 in Yu-Gi-Oh?

If you special summon a monster can you normal summon a monster the same turn?

Yes, a Special Summon of any kind does not count towards your limit of one Normal Summon or Set per turn. You can Special Summon as many times a s you want per turn.


Do you have to re-tribute summon a monster if it got put face down by book of moon?

Tribute is only needed for the monster's Normal Summon or Set (or Special Summon in special cases). Flip Summoning does not require any tribute at all, regardless of what monster it is.


How do you Reverse Summon in Yu-Gi-Oh?

A Reverse Summon is the Japanese name for what the TCG calls a Flip Summon. To Flip Summon a monster, in your main phase 1 or 2, you manually change the position of one of your monsters from being Set, into face-up Attack Position.


If you play double summon can you set another monster?

Can you activate Torrential Tribute when a player sets a monster in Yu-Gi-Oh?

If a monster is set you cannot activate it. "Torrential Tribute" can only activate when any player performs a flip summon, normal summon, Ritual summon, Fusion summon or Special summon, but a set is different from a summon so you cannot activate "Torrential Tribute". The same applies to other cards that activate when a monster is summoned (like "Bottomless Trap Hole" and "Solemn Judgment").


Does your opponent's monster's effect still activate if you chained Book of Moon to set it in Yu-Gi-Oh?

No. One of the conditions placed upon Flip Summons is that the monster can not have declared an attack that turn - even if the attack was negated or otherwise halted. If a monster declares an attack and Book of Moon is used to turn it face-down, then as it declared an attack, you are unable to Flip Summon it that turn.


Yu-GI-oh is set summon the same thing as normal summon?

Setting is similar, yet not identical to normal summoning. a normal summon is when you Summon a monster onto the field in face-up attack position, whereas a set is when you normal summon a monster in face-down defense position. When a monster is set, it is not yet considered a summoned monster.
