If the attacker has a higher ATK than the defender's DEF, then the defender is destroyed. No damage is dealt to the defending player's lifepoints unless the attacker has a special effect that allows it to do so.

If the attacker has the same ATK as the defender's DEF, then nothing happens. Neither monster is destroyed, and neither player takes any damage.

If the attacker has a lower ATK than the defender's DEF, then the attacking player takes damage to his life points equal to the difference. The attacking monster is not destroyed though.

In yugioh what happens if your monster attacks a monster with the same attack power?

Assuming the defending monster is also in attack position, both monsters will be destroyed.


In Yugioh what happens if your monster which is weaker attacks a monster that is stronger Do you lose life points and the monster is destroyed or is it just your life points?

Your monster is destroyed if the monster you attack is in attack position, and you lose life points.


What happens when you attack a defense position monster with the same DEF as your ATK in Yugioh?

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.


When you attack a face up defense position monster on yugio and it has a higher defense than the atk of your monster what happens does your monster get sent to the graveyard?

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.


What happens if a monster 'must attack if able' while it was in defense mode in Main Phase 1 in Yu-Gi-Oh?

Nothing, unless the card specifically mentions a penalty for not attacking. If a monster is in defense mode it is not able to declare an attack, and there are no consequences for not attacking unless the monster's text mentions one.
