From the High Seas release notes · June 6 2025
  • When you activate Platinum Amulet, you must target a defending card on the combat chain for its effect. When Platinum Amulet’s activated ability resolves, that defending card will get +1defense until the end of turn.
  • You may target any defending card, including those defending cards that are on the previous chain link on the current combat chain.
  • You may target a defending card that does not have a defense value; however, this will still result in that target defending card having no defense value. (Note: 0 is a valid defense value).
  • If the combat chain closes, the defending card will retain the +1defense continuous effect generated from Platinum Amulet for the remainder of the turn as long as the defending card remains in the arena (e.g. a defending equipment card that is not destroyed when the combat chain closes). If you were to defend with that affected card again against another attack that turn, it will have the +1defense.

Keyword notes

Watery Grave - When this is put into your graveyard from the arena, turn it face-down.
  • Watery Grave is an ability keyword.
  • Watery Grave is a trigger that ONLY triggers if the card is put from the arena into the graveyard, excluding when it is a non-permanent defending card on the combat chain. It also does not trigger if it is put into the graveyard by other means (e.g. discarded from your hand, destroyed from the top of the deck, put into the graveyard from your deck).
  • When Watery Grave’s triggered effect resolves, you must turn that card with watery grave face-down in your graveyard.
  • Similar to face-down cards in the banish zone, you can look at face-down cards in your graveyard. Opponents cannot look at face-down cards in your graveyard.
  • Cards and effects that interact with cards in the graveyard cannot interact with face-down cards in the graveyard unless the effect specifies that it affects face-down cards. For example, if a card requires you to banish 3 random cards from your graveyard as an additional cost, face-down banished cards are unable to be banished from your graveyard this way to pay for the cost.
