Once per turn, while you control another "Six Samurai" monster with a different name, you can destroy 1 face-up Spell or Trap Card. This monster cannot declare an attack during the turn this effect is used. If this card would be destroyed, you can destroy another "Six Samurai" monster you control instead.

This monster cannot declare an attack during the turn this effect is used. If this card would be destroyed, you can destroy another "Six Samurai" monster you control instead.
Rulings:
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] These rulings apply for all "The Six Samurai" monsters and "Great Shogun Shien".
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] The effect "If this card would be destroyed, you can destroy a(nother) "Six Samurai" monster you control instead." is a Continuous Effect. You can apply this effect while resolving an effect that would destroy the monster.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] This effect does not target.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] This effect can be used during the Damage Step. If you destroy a "Six Samurai" to save another "Six Samurai" that would have been destroyed by battle, you do so during damage calculation. The "Six Samurai" that you destroyed instead is sent to the Graveyard at the same time that monsters destroyed by battle are sent to the Graveyard.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] You cannot destroy a face-down "Six Samurai" monster instead.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] You cannot destroy a "Six Samurai" monster to save more than one other "Six Samurai" monster at the same time. Example: You control "Yariza" in Defense Position and "Nisashi" and "Irou" in Attack Position. "Mirror Force" is activated when you attack with "Nisashi". You can destroy "Yariza" to save "Nisashi", or destroy "Yariza" to save "Irou". You cannot destroy "Yariza" to save both "Nisashi" and "Irou" at the same time.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] A "Six Samurai" monster that is in the process of being destroyed cannot be destroyed to save another "Six Samurai" monster. For example, if you control "Yariza", "Nisashi", and "Irou" all in Attack Position, and your opponent activates "Mirror Force", you cannot destroy any of those 3 instead of another.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] You can use the effect of "Six Samurai" monsters to prevent them from being destroyed by the effects of "Call of the Haunted" or "Premature Burial". So if a "Six Samurai" (or "Great Shogun Shien") is targeted by "Call of the Haunted", and "Call of the Haunted" is destroyed, you can destroy a different "Six Samurai" monster instead of the one that was targeted by "Call of the Haunted".
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] If "Ring of Destruction" targets a "Six Samurai" monster, and you destroy a different "Six Samurai" monster instead, zero damage will be inflicted by "Ring of Destruction".
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] A "Six Samurai" monster destroyed by this effect is considered to be destroyed by the effect, no matter how the other "Six Samurai" monster would have been destroyed.
[Group: THE SIX SAMURAI MONSTERS] If you control 2 "Six Samurai" monsters, and 1 of them equipped with "Legendary Ebon Steed" would be destroyed, the effect of "Legendary Ebon Steed" must be used. You cannot choose to destroy another "Six Samurai" monster instead.
The first effect of "Kamon" targets the card to be destroyed.
If all other "Six Samurai" monsters you controlled were destroyed by an effect chained to "Kamon's" effect, "Kamon's" effect will not resolve.
If "Kamon" declares an attack, then is flipped face-down, then flipped face-up, you cannot use its effect that same turn because it already attacked.
If "Kamon's" effect is used, then "Skill Drain" is activated later, "Kamon" still cannot declare an attack that turn.
Please see "The Six Samurai - Irou" for additional rulings.
