Default Gummi Golem Question

Gummi Golem: Level 4

[Mod: Please don't quote card text.]


***

Question is: Say I'm a Level 6 player. An opponent uses a Lemming Juice on the Gummi Golem (or some other one-shot item).

a) is this legal?
b) what is a magical item, ie can I cast a one-shot that will give me a corresponding bonus?

Understood that I *COULD* cast a Monster Spell that reduces it's strength, but I don't have that card in my hand.

I hope the question is clear.

Thanks! :)

More recent versions of that card say "with no other bonuses," rather than "magic items," which makes it a nastier monster to be sure.

It is absolutely legal for your opponents to play cards to help the Gummi Golem. You can't use anything that gives you a combat bonus to fight it. However, you CAN play a card that gives the monster a penalty, such as the Baby monster enhancer (-5 to monster).

I have a question!

If a player has a equip item that gives him -2 to run away, if he has to escape from gummi golem, this penalty is applicable or not? Because the card says that you can't use itens against the Gummi Golem.

You have the Items equipped, so yes, the penalty applies. Just because the Items don't work against the monster doesn't mean you aren't still using them.
