Best Answer

No. A Tribute Summon is a kind of Normal Summon.

Special Summons are just Special Summons even if the special summon requires some form of Tribute. That does not make it a Tribute Summon.

Is a synchro summon the same as a tribute summon?

Not quite. A Synchro Summon is a Special Summon. A Tribute Summon is the same as a Normal Summon, except that when you Tribute Summon you need to tribute monsters. Also you can Special Summon as many times as you want to in a turn, whereas you can only Normal Summon OR Tribute Summon once per turn, except with a card effect.


Can you tribute the same turn during a normal summon?

You can definitely tribute a monster on the same turn as a Normal Summon, ie, you can normal summon Exiled Force and tribute it for its effect. What you can't do is tribute it for a Tribute Summon because this is another Normal Summon, you can't perform two in a turn unless an effect allows you to do so. But you can tribute that monster for other things, like an activation cost or for a special summon.


Can you tribute summon and normal summon in the same turn?

Under normal circumstances, you are only allowed one Normal Summon per turn. A Tribute Summon is a kind of Normal Summon, meaning that if you wanted to do both in one turn, you'll need an effect that specifically lets you, like Double Summon. Note that a special summon that requires tribute, is not a Tribute Summon. You can perform those in the same turn as a Normal Summon.


In yu gi oh does tribute summon count as an special summon?

No tribute summon is a normal summon. It's called tribute because you have to pay the cost of the summon by sending 1 (for LV5 or LV6) or 2 (LV7+) monsters from the field to the graveyard.So basically it's same as a normal summon for a lower level monster.

Can you tribute summon gorz?

Yes. Like Cyber Dragon, Gorz 'can' special summon himself with his effect, but he is not a 'special summon only' monster, he can be tribute summoned with two tributes, if you want.


In Yu-Gi-Oh if you summon a monster can you tribute that monster the same turn?

If you summon a toon monster with 7 stars does it need tributes?

Yes. To Special Summon a Level 7 Toon Monster, you must Tribute any two monsters on your side of the field. For Levels 5-6, you must Tribute one. For Levels 7 and above, you must Tribute two. High Level Toon Monsters follow the same guidelines as Tribute Summons. Note that it is considered a Special Summon, not a Tribute Summon.


Can you tribute on the same turn as you summon a monster in Yu-Gi-Oh?

Yes, you can tribute monsters for card effects and Tribute Summon the same turn you summon a monster. However, you cannot Normal Summon a monster and Tribute Summon on the same turn because you can only Normal Summon once per turn. Cards such as Double Summon and Ultimate Offering will let you do that.


Can you tribute a monster on the same turn you played it in Yu Gi Oh?

Yes, nothing stops you doing that. But of course since you're limited to one normal summon per turn, you can't normal summon a monster and then tribute it for a tribute summon. But you're free to tribute it for the cost of an effect or a special summon.


Can you tribute summon a monster and then special summon?

You are allowed as many Flip Summons and Special Summons you want as long as there are monster zones available. A tribute summon is counted as a normal summon, and you are only allowed one normal summon 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.
