What happens if Necroface is Normal Summoned under my opponent's Future Visions?
Necroface is Normal Summoned while opponent's Future Visions is active
Since both effects are mandatory and meet their triggers at the same time, turn player's effect goes on the chain before opponent's, so CL1 Necroface and CL2 Future Visinos. When the chain resolves, Necroface is first banished by Future Visions and then returned to the Deck by its own effect. Then Necroface's other effect (banish the top 5 cards of each Deck) triggers in a new chain because it was removed from play.
