Damage
Page Help4this wiki
Damage (ダメージ, Damēji) is classed into two basic forms, "Battle Damage" and "Effect Damage".
Life Point costs for cards are not considered damage, so cards like "Wall of Revealing Light", "Final Countdown", and "Premature Burial" cannot have their costs re-directed by cards such as "Barrel Behind the Door" or negated by "Des Wombat".

Direct Damage
Edit
- Main article: Direct Damage
A Direct attack is the process where a monster's whole ATK value is subtracted from the opponent's Life Points, either when there are no monsters on your opponent's side of the field, or if the attacking monster has the ability to attack directly, either by its own effect or the effect of another card. Damage from attacking directly is always treated as a Battle Damage.
Battle Damage
Edit
- Main article: Battle Damage
Battle Damage is the damage inflicted to a player's Life Points from battle. Monster cards can still be destroyed even if Battle Damage is not inflicted.
Effect Damage
Edit
- Main article: Effect Damage
Effect Damage is any damage that is not caused by battle (with the exception of "Gravekeeper's Vassal") or is a reduction.
