You can activate “Macro Cosmos” even if you don’t have “Helios – The Primordial Sun” in your hand or Deck.
Examples: Dark Grepher, Foolish Burial, Blaze Accelerator, and Needlebug Nest.
You can only Special Summon “Helios – The Primordial Sun” when “Macro Cosmos” first resolves. It is not an effect that you can activate at any time or more than once.
(1) You can Special Summon 1 "Helios – The Primordial Sun" from your hand or Deck when you activate this card. (2) While this card is on the field, any card sent to the GY is removed from play instead.
If “Mystical Space Typhoon” is chained to “Macro Cosmos’s” activation to destroy it, then you will not Special Summon “Helios – The Primordial Sun”. Because “Macro Cosmos” is a Continuous Trap Card, it needs to remain on the field to resolve.
The (1) Effect is optional, you can activate this card without a Helios in the Deck.
While “Macro Cosmos” is active on the field, monsters that are unaffected by the effects of Trap Cards (like “Elemental Hero Wildheart”) are still removed from play instead of going to the Graveyard.
Macro Cosmos must remain face-up on the Field in order to successfully resolve its (1) effect.
While “Macro Cosmos” is active on the field, if you Tribute a monster to Summon “Jinzo”, the Tributed monster will still be removed from play.
Because of this effect, Macro Cosmos can be destroyed on activation by Royal Oppression.
You can activate “Polymerization” while “Macro Cosmos” is active on the field because sending Fusion Material Monsters to the Graveyard is an effect of “Polymerization” and not a cost.
The (2) Continuous-like Effect affects all cards that would be sent to the GY.
If you also have "Gravekeeper's Servant" active on the field, your opponent cannot declare an attack.
A Monster Tributed to Normal Summon Jinzo is still removed from play.
Cards cannot be sent / discarded to the GY. If a card's cost would do this, it cannot activate.
Cards whose cost require a card(s) be discarded (ex: Magic Jammer) can be activated.
Cards / effects that send / discard a card(s) to the GY at resolution can be activated.
If a face-up Archlord Kristya would be sent from the field to the GY (and removed from play), Archlord Kristya’s effect will still trigger and places it back on top of the Deck.
If Gravekeeper's Servant is active, your opponent cannot declare an attack.
If "Mystical Space Typhoon" is chained to the activation of "Macro Cosmos" to destroy it, then you will not Special Summon "Helios – The Primordial Sun". Because "Macro Cosmos" is a Continuous Trap Card, it needs to remain on the field to resolve.
