Player A has a "Shrink" and "Smashing Ground" in his hand.
Player B has a face-up "Spirit Reaper" on the field and a "Book of Moon" in his hand.
Player A: uses "Smashing Ground" on "Spirit Reaper"
Player B: chains Book of Moon targeting "Spirit Reaper"
Player A: chains "Shrink" targeting "Spirit Reaper"
Will the Spirit Reaper be destroyed because of Shrink's targeting effect when Shrink resolves? Or will Spirit Reaper resolve when the chain is done, which won't happen since Book of Moon will then resolve setting it face down?
Answer:
From the FAQ: "When "Spirit Reaper" is targeted by an effect, "Spirit Reaper" is destroyed by its own effect AFTER resolving the effect that targeted it."
Since "Shrink" is the most recent effect to target "Spirit Reaper" on the Chain, "Spirit Reaper" will be destroyed after "Shrink" is resolved.
As a result, "Book of Moon's" effect will disappear, and "Fissue" will attempt to destroy whichever face-up monster has the lowest ATK on the opponent's side of the field (if any remain).
