Unless the effect of a card states otherwise, when anydefense position card is attacked by an attack stronger then your defense, the difference is not subtracted from your life points.
If the attacking monster is switched into Defence position, the attack ends. Damage Calculation is not entered, you do not compare the monsters' ATK or DEF.
If the attacking monster has lower ATK than the defence-position defender's DEF, then the defender is not destroyed at all. What will happen is the attacking player will take damage equal to the difference between the attacker's ATK and the defender's DEF, but neither monster will be destroyed.
When a monster attacks a defense position monster with DEF equal to to the attacking monster's ATK, no damage is inflicted to either player's Life Points and no monsters are destroyed in battle. Some monsters have effects that activate before or after they battle, so you must take those into account as well.
No. When a monster you control attacks a monster with a Defense higher then the Attack of your monster, you take damage equal to the difference but neither monster is destroyed. The only exception is due to card effects such as Des Kangaroo.
Yes they do, as they activate their effect when they are destroyed and sent to the graveyard.
No, if a monster attacks a defense position monster and is then changed to defense position by Kunai with Chain, it cannot be destroyed by battle. In this scenario, the attacking monster is no longer in attack position and thus does not have to compare its attack points to the defense points of the opposing monster. Instead, the battle is resolved in such a way that the attacking monster remains in defense position, and the battle does not result in destruction for either monster.
In Yu-Gi-Oh!, when a Defense Position monster is destroyed, damage calculation does not occur. Instead, the monster is sent to the graveyard without involving damage calculation, as it is not in Attack Position. The player does not take any battle damage from the destruction of a Defense Position monster.
If the attacking monster is switched into Defence position, the attack ends. Damage Calculation is not entered, you do not compare the monsters' ATK or DEF.
If the attacking monster has lower ATK than the defence-position defender's DEF, then the defender is not destroyed at all. What will happen is the attacking player will take damage equal to the difference between the attacker's ATK and the defender's DEF, but neither monster will be destroyed.
A very tricky question, though it might help to look at a somewhat similar card for the answer: Red Dragon Archfiend. After attacking a Defense Position monster, RDA will "destroy all Defense Position monsters your opponent controls". Even if RDA attacked and successfully destroyed a Mystic Tomato that was in Defense Position, Mystic Tomato would be removed from the field by RDA's effect and not be considered destroyed in battle.Though D.D. Warrior Lady banishes monsters instead of destroying them, it still removes them from the field just like RDA. Additionally, both of these effects also resolve at the same time during the Damage Step. In short, the only fundamental differences between D.D. Warrior Lady and RDA is how their effects activate and that the former banishes cards.In conclusion, since we know that Defense Position monsters RDA attacks are not considered destroyed in battle, then any and all monsters D.D. Warrior Lady would have successfully destroyed in battle, but are removed from play by her effect, are not considered destroyed in battle. This is because the destroyed monster was removed from the field by an effect, not as a direct result of being destroyed in battle.
Yes. If you hit a monster with higher defense than your attack, your attacking monster isn't destroyed, but you take damage. If the defending monster's defense is lower than your attack, then the defending monster is destroyed, but the defending player takes no damage, unless through an effect like "Dragon's Rage" or "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman"
A business in the defense position is defending its position within its industry. This can happen as a result of new entrants in the industry.
