If I have a {Sealock Monster} on the battle field, the opponent doesn't have an Island field card, meaning the Sealock can't attack. Nevertheless, is it possible to use a ritual (or other enchantement) like {Time to Feed} to target the Sealock Monster and have it attack anyway?
{time to feed} does not make the {sea lock monster} attack. It makes it fight an opponent's creature. Fighting something is like forcing one to block the other, except even if one had trample the player would take no damage. (This isn't the best explanation but I didn't want it to be too long)
Basically, until your opponent controls an island it can't attack. {time to feed} won't help.
Thanks! And can I use the {Time to Feed} in main phase I on a creature and then use that same creature afterwards in the Combat phase?

Fighting has nothing to do with combat at all. As long as the creature is alive, go for it.
Absolutely! Fighting has nothing to do with combat. Just remember that the damage it took from the fighting adds with any damage it might take in combat, which could kill it.
Thanks alot !

I would like to add that while time to feed won't allow your monster to attack, you can still use it to have him fight a creature your opponent controls.

i would also like to add something. you referred to {time to feed} as a "ritual (or other enchanment)." There is actually no such card type as "rituals" though there are cards with ritual in the name like {dark ritual}. {time to feed} is also not an enchantment, it is a sorcery.

My bad! I play with french cards and "sorcery" cards in french are called "ritual" cards. Sorry for the missunderstanding!
