What do you do with ion exchange resins?
1) When a face-down monster is attacked, it is flipped face-up to DEF position, and damage calcualation is applied using the ATK of the attacking monster and the DEF of the defending monster. 2) No, because it was not Flip Summoned successfully. It was flipped face-up by the attack, and this is different. 3) Mesmeric Control prevents your opponent from changing the position of a monster manually. Attacking HAS TO flip the monster face-up to resume the Damage Step. 4) If Magical Arm Shield was activated by your opponent, then they would take the battle damage if the monster they took has lower ATK. Simiarly if your monster had lower ATK, then you take the battle damage. The monster that had the lower ATK is still destroyed as normal, and will NOT be returned to the owner if it has been destroyed. 5) Yes, the monster taken from you from Magical Arm Shield stays in whatever position it was originally in.
I actually think it's about a 50-50 chance. This match is the most unpredictable match of this PPV. The thing is, Cena, Ryback, and Sheamus could lose this match and it won't hurt any of them at all. A loss for The Shield could potentially hurt them. I fear that the WWE won't learn from the mistake they made of how they ended The Nexus and end Shield in a similar way, at a PPV vs. an all-star team led by John Cena. In my opinion, The Shield will win tonight. Whatever happens, I think The Shield need to start wrestling regularly after tonight.
