- The effect of "Zubaba Buster" that activates at the end of the Damage Step when it inflicts battle damage will activate mandatorily as long as "Zubaba Buster" itself is face-up at the end of the Damage Step. Also, if there are no other monsters at the time of the resolution of this effect, "Zubaba Buster" destroys itself.[3]
