Rulings
- Continuous Destruction Punch is like Destruction Punch except it's a Continuous Spell Card that you activate during your Main Phase.
- A monster destroyed because of Continuous Destruction Punch is destroyed by Continuous Destruction Punch's effect, not as a result of battle.
- The determination of whether a monster is destroyed by Continuous Destruction Punch's effect happens at Damage Calculation, so Flip Effects, etc., are resolved AFTER Continuous Destruction Punch's effect destroys a monster (but does not yet send it to the GY). Then, after applying Flip Effects, send a monster destroyed by this card (or by Damage Calculation) to the GY.
