Player A Attack Player B face up Krebons

Player B activate Krebons negating attack effect paying 800 LP.

Player A Chains with book of moon to Player B Krebons.

Question:  Does Krebons face down negate attack?

---

Yes.  Nothing says that Krebons needs to remain face-up to get its effect.  The better play would be to activate Book of Moon first.  Then declare the attack.

Enjoy the game

Actually, Krebons' effect is a trigger effect due to you needing to attack it first. You can choose to activate it or not. He is Spell Speed 1.

Now, you can chain that with any spell speed 2 or higher card.

Book of moon is spell speed 2.

The activation of krebons' effect starts a chain, which player A is able to counter with BoM.

Since official Yugioh rules state that a chain resolves from last to first, Book of Moon is chain link 2 and krebons is chain link 1.

Therefore, Book of moon resolves first, causing krebons to flip face down, and then the attack goes through. Krebons effect will then disappear, and the player will still have to pay 800 because it is payment to activate the trigger.

Krebons will then be destroyed because he is face down.

Hope that helps.

I do not believe so. The effect was Already Activated and the Cost has been paid. Nothing says Krebons must be Face-up for his effect to Resolve. I would rule the effect would still be applied and Negate the Attack of the Opponent's monster.

The effect would be like activating book of moon against Grand Mole. He cannot bounce the cards back to the hand when he is in face-down defense.

You can't chain Book of Moon to Grand Mole's effect.  So your comparison is completely invalid.

If you are Attempting to chain Book of Moon to Grand Mole's effect Activating that is an Illegal Activation. if you Book of Moon him before he can reach Damage Step then of course he wont get his effect because he will be flipped Face-down and his attack will fizzle so your answer is Invalid.

Please do not compare with different cards.

PLEASE SOMEONE WITH KNOWLEDGE !!!!

Maybe Curtis?

Curtis does not answer questions on this forum.  You have gotten an answer from some very knowledgeable people.  If you choose not to trust the answer given, ask the question on the official judge list and Curtis will get an answer for you from Konami.

With that being said, you request for "SOMEONE WITH KNOWLEDGE !!!!" is quite rude and condescending to the people here who take time out of their lives to answer questions.  Please try to be considerate when posting.

The "correct" answer, in my opinion, is that Krebons does not need to be face up to negate the attack.  The effect is already on the chain.  D1case (Dave), explained in quite well in his response.
