Previously Official Rulings
These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[2] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

- "Hyper Hammerhead's" effect activates at the time that a monster would be sent to the Graveyard.
- Even if "Hyper Hammerhead" was destroyed, its effect resolves.
- The effect of "Hyper Hammerhead" can be chained to.
- If you have another effect that activates at the end of the Damage Step, you can place it on a chain with "Hyper Hammerhead's" effect (such as "Hyper Hammerhead" vs. "Hyper Hammerhead").
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Des Kangaroo: If "Hyper Hammerhead" attacks "Des Kangaroo" in Defense Position, their effects form a chain; "Hyper Hammerhead" is Step 1 because it is the turn player's effect, and "Des Kangaroo" is Step 2. "Des Kangaroo" resolves first and destroys "Hyper Hammerhead", then "Hyper Hammerhead" resolves and "Des Kangaroo" is returned to the owner's hand.
- Fighting Spirit: If a "Hyper Hammerhead" destroyed by battle is equipped with "Fighting Spirit" and it is destroyed instead, "Hyper Hammerhead" remains on the field and its effect activates.
