OCG Rulings
- Only face-up monsters cannot change their battle positions.[1]
- You can only activate this card when your opponent controls at least 1 face-up monster during his Standby Phase.[2]

- If a monster must attack because of "Battle Mania", you cannot choose to skip your Battle Phase.[4]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[5] 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.

- You cannot activate this card if your opponent controls no monsters.
- If your opponent controls a face-up Attack Position monster at the end of their Main Phase 1, they must conduct their Battle Phase during the turn "Battle Mania" is activated.
- Monsters unaffected by Trap Cards, like "Elemental Hero Wildheart", do not have to attack during the turn "Battle Mania" is activated.
- During the Battle Phase of a turn in which "Battle Mania" was activated, if your "Ultimate Tyranno" attacks, but the attack is negated, it must still attack again if there is another monster in play. (It cannot attack the same target twice.)
