RULES UPDATE: Quickdraw's summon is an activated effect!

Discord user Mika has been hard at work looking into the history of Quickdraw's effect, and has made an amazing find regarding how Quickdraw was ruled for SJC Edison! Here's the TL;DR from Mika:
  • "The first effect activates. It is an effect, and sends a card to the GY as part of that effect (not a cost). You send when the effect resolves.
  • If you Oppression it, you do not send a card to the GY, but QD is still destroyed.
  • If LaDD is on the field, you may keep activating this effect until LaDD can no longer negate.
  • You may summon it under Macro/DFissure. The sent card will be banished.
  • You may negate this effect with GB War Chariot or Divine Wrath."

A Timeline of Events..

  • "09/07/22" (July 22, 2009)¹ OCG rules that the summon is an unclassified effect²
  • TCG mistranslated the text as an effect, not a cost³
  • Jerome rules that it ACTIVATES at SJC Edison³
    • Proof that it was Edison: http://duelistgroundz.com/index.php?/topic/119293-hardened-armed-dragon/
    • Quote of Jerome's Ruling: https://www.pojo.biz/board/showthread.php?t=797763&page=2

    • ²Q:効果分類は何ですか? A:手札から特殊召喚する効果は特に分類のない効果となります(=召喚ルール効果)  また、二つ目と三つ目のテキストは効果モンスターの効果として扱いません。(=ルール効果)
    • Q: What is the effect classification [of Quickdraw Synchron]? A: The effect of special summoning from your hand is an effect, without any special classification (= summoning rule effect) Also, the second and third texts are not treated as effects of effect monsters. (= Rule effect)
  • ³User AirUpThere: "the way its worded now, quickdraw can now be charioted (ruled this way by jerome) and it will crap all over light and darkness dragon (ruled this way by jerome)"
  • User SCtheOnly: "doesn't matter if it was ruled that way by Jerome or not."
  • User Skullblaster: "Just a misruling for a single event."
