4 official rulings from Bandai. Straight answers to how this card actually resolves.
My opponent blocks [BT3-058]/[BanchoStingmon]. Do I still get its effect off?
Yes, you still get BanchoStingmon's effect. ＜Blocker＞ happens after all ＜When Attacking＞ effects and BanchoStingmon's effect keeps the changes for the turn. (See more in Attack Resolution)
I attack my opponent's Digimon with 12000 DP or more with this Digimon, then one of my effects reduces that Digimon's DP to be under 12000. Does this Digimon's ＜When Attacking＞ effect activate?
Yes, it does. This effect behaves the same way as an effect that reads "When this Digimon attacks one of your opponent's Digimon with 12000 DP or more". As such, the requirement for 12000 DP or more is checked at the time the attack is declared and determines whether or not the effect triggers. After the effect has triggered, this requirement does not impact the effect's activation.
I have activated [BT1-104]/[Golden Ripper] and attack with [BT3-058]/[BanchoStingmon]. If I attack with this card and use [BT1-104]/[Golden Ripper]'s effect to decrease the attack of the attack target from 12000 DP to 10000 DP before I use its effect, can I use this card's effect to give it 7000 DP?
Yes, you can still use BanchoStingmon's effect if the attack target's DP decreases before BanchoStingmon's effect activates as long as it was 12000 DP when it was targeted for the attack.
If this card attacks a Digimon with less than 12000 DP and then one of my effects increases it to 12000 DP or more afterwards. Can I use this effect?
No, this card's effect did not fulfill its trigger condition.
