When monsters attack during the Battle Phase, there are actually multiple "steps" that take place. When a player declares an attack, you enter the "Battle Step". If no card effects are activated that would stop the attack, you enter the "Damage Step" in which face-down monsters are flipped face-up and you actually calculate how much damage is done. It's at this point that a card that reads "during damage calculation only" can be activated or takes effect.

Does damage calculation mean you lose life points for example does the owner of Spirit Reaper lose points when an opponent's monster attacks it in defense position?

Answer: The "damage calculation is calculated normally" text in Spirit Reaper(SR) means if your SR is attacked while it's on attack position then you will lose LP for that battle but SR won't be destroyed and sent to the graveyard as a result of battle because of it's card effect.Answer!"Damage calculation" is the damage a player receives either due to a monster attacking or by a card effect. Damage calculation is done during the Damage Step of the Battle Phase. If a card's effect reads something like, When this Defense Position card is attacked and the ATK of the attacking monster is lower than the DEF of this card, after Damage Calculation destroy the attacking monster., then that means after damage is inflicted upon a player the rest of its effect activates destroying the attacking monster. More examples-Reflect Bounder: When card is face-up Attack Position and is attacked by a monster on your opponent's side of the field, before damage calculation is resolved in the Damage Step, this card inflicts damage to your opponent's Life Points equal to the ATK of the attacking monster.This means before damage would be inflicted upon either player by the attack during the Damage Step, the monster's effect activates inflicting damage. Then damage is calculated.The Hunter With 7 Weapons: When this card is Normal Summoned, declare 1 Type of monster. When battling that Type of monster, increase the ATK of this card by 1000 points during Damage Calculation. What this translates into is that during the Damage Step, simple increase this card's attack by 1000.


What does 'destroyed as a result of battle' mean?

" Destroyed as a result of battle" is when a monster is considered destroyed during Damage Calculation, where its ATK or DEF is being compared to the other monster's ATK. It does not mean destruction at any other time during an attack, like through the effect of Mystic Swordsman Lv2, or Newdoria.

Does Zubaba Knight cancel the effect of the destroyed monster?

No part of Zubaba Knight negates effects but since it destroys the monster at the start of the Damage Step it might mean that some monster effects would be unable to activate. Monsters which trigger when destroyed by battle will not activate because they were destroyed by an effect. Many monsters with effects that happen during or after Damage Calculation will never activate because the damage step will end as soon as it starts.
