You can't attack an opponent's creature directly. you attack your opponent directly with your creatures. It's up to them to decide whether or not to block.
The exception to this is if one of your creatures has the Provoke ability which means you can force another creature to block it.
That'll be 'Reflect Bounder'.
Due to rules updates, this answer has been modified. If a spell or ability would deal damage to a player, the controller of that spell or ability may, during resolution, redirect all of the damage to a planeswalkers the opponent controls. If a creature attacks, the attacking player must declare, for each attacking creature, if that creature is attacking the defending player or a planeswalkers that player controls. They may still be blocked as normal. The previous answer mentioned playing your own planeswalker with the same sub-name to "counteract" the opponent's planeswalker. This rule no longer exists and each player may have a planeswalker with the same sub-name under their control.
ok if it says deal X damage to target opponent than deal X damage to opponent and NOT creature. if it says deal X damage to target creature than deal it to the creature and NOT the player. if it says creature and player deal it to a creature and a player ect. the point is you will get a strait awnser if you just READ THE CARD, AND NEVER BEND WHAT THE CARD IS SAYING. ex: if it says get a creature from the grave and you get a instant you are bending the rules (it happens ALOT).
Yes! You do have to decla war before attacking or else there is no war and the opponent wouldnt know about it. If the opponent doesn't know about it there really is no war and nobody wins.
A sacrificed permanent must be something you control, you cannot sacrifice your opponent's cards. Vivisection's additional cost has to be a creature you control. Sometimes your cards can force the opponent sacrifice his permanents. These all clearly say the card is making the opponent, not you, sacrifice them.

Let's say you have "Sakuretsu Armor" face-down on your field and your opponent attacks you with their monster.When your opponent declares or states they are attacking with a specific monster, whether they are attack a monster you control or your Life Points directly, you may activate "Sakuretsu Armor". "Sakuretsu Armor" destroys the attacking monster and the attack is over.There are a few important things to note when using this card:If the opponent chains "SA" with a Spell/ Trap that flips the attacking monster face-down, when the chain resolves the monster will not be destroyed.If the opponent chains "SA" with a Spell/ Trap that changes the battle position of the attacking monster but it is till face-up, when the chain resolves the monster will still be destroyed. verified with yu-gi-oh wiki which has the tcg rules on that are the official rules.
No, if your attacking Monster is destroyed by an opponent's "Sakuretsu Armor" it is considered destroyed as the result of an effect.In order for a Monster to be considered destroyed as a result of battle, the attacking Monster must have been destroyed because its ATK was equal or less than the opponent's attack position Monster it battled with.
