Special Summons only need tribute if the summoning text specifically say they do. Generally tribute is only required for a Normal Summon or Set.

Is special summon the same as normal summon?

Can you use enemy controller and tribute a scapegoat?

How does all slifer the sky dragon forms look like?

You need 3 tributes to tribute summon it. It gains 1000 atk for every card in your hand. If it's special summoned it's destroyed at the end of the turn. It's unaffected by the effects of spells, traps and monster effects that designate a target. If your opponent summons a monster with 2000 or less def it's destroyed.


In Yu-Gi-Oh what does tribute summon mean?

No, because Tribute Summon is treated as a Normal Summon. Monsters that require tribute for a special summon (Toon monsters, Destiny Hero Plasma) are still Special Summons, not Tribute Summons.


Do all level 7 and higher monsters in Yu Gi Oh only need 2 tributes or do level 9 and higher monsters need 3 tributes for example would Yubel need 3 Tributes to be Tribute Summoned?

Monsters of Lv5 or 6 need one tribute, and monsters of Lv7+ need two. So even monsters like Yubel (Lv10) only requires two tributes. Some high level monsters do require three tributes. These will always say so on their card.
