What can Ash Blossom negate?
If something searches a card or Summons a monster from your deck, or if it sends a card from your deck to yur graveyard, Ash Blossom can negate it. In short: it stops hundreds of relevant cards.
Can you Ash Blossom in damage step?
It cannot be activated during the Damage Step. The effect of "Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring" does not target. It is activated directly in a Chain to the activation of a Spell/Trap Card, the activation of the effect of a Spell/Trap Card, or the activation of a monster effect, that includes any of the "●" effects.
Can you Ash Blossom metaverse?
One of the possible outcomes of the effect of “Metaverse” is adding a Field Spell from the Deck to the hand and, as adding a card to the hand is an effect that can be negated by the effect of “Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring”, the effect of “Metaverse” can be negated. Yes, you can.
Can you Ash Blossom branded Fusion?
ASH BLOSSOM
Ash WILL negate branded fusion, even if branded lost is face up on field. We have to understand the wording, Branded lost ONLY prevents the activations from getting negated, ash blossom NEGATES effects and avoids lost. If branded fusion is ashed are you still locked into only summoning fusions.
