When you Flip Summon a monster what battle position is it in?

A face-down monster can only be Normal Summoned in face-up ATK position.


What if you have a Dragon type monster card in attack position and your opponent activates a Dragon Capture Jar putting your card in face-up defence position plus disables it from attacking?

A monster can't declare an attack while it is in defence position - unless it specifically says it can (Total Defence Shogun, etc). So your Dragon-type monsters will be unable to attack.If one of your dragons declares an attack, and Dragon Capture Jar is flipped in response, then your Dragon will switch to defence mode and that particular battle step will end without proceeding to the Damage Step.


Can you attack with a monster and then put it in defence?

Yes, if you control a monster in defense mode and it is changed to attack mode during the Battle Phase by a card effect, it can attack. The "Zero Gravity" Trap card is an example of a card that can switch your monsters' battle position during the Battle Phase. But if the monster already attacked that turn, was switched to defense mode, then changed to attack mode again by an effect, it cannot attack again on that same turn.


How do you calculate the damage done to your opponent when your monster destroys your opponent's by battle in Yu-Gi-Oh?

If your opponent's monster is in attack mode, then the opponent will take battle damage if you destroy the monster with a stronger one. The amount of battle damage they take is equal to the ATK of your attacker, minus the ATK of the defending monster. If your attacker has 2400ATK for example and the defender's is 1800, then the opponent will take (2400-1800) 600 battle damage. If your opponent's monster is in defence position, then the opponent will not take any battle damage at all, regardless of how much higher your monster's ATK is than the defender's DEF.


Can you change your monster's position into face-down defense?

The monster is flipped into face-up defense position and any battle damage that occurs is calculated. Afterwards the monster that was attacked remains on the field and is not sent to the Graveyard.Examples of monsters that cannot be destroyed in battle are Spirit Reaper and Marshmallon.If a monster attacks with an effect that enables it to deal damage equal to the difference in its ATK and the defending monster's DEF (like Twin-Sword Marauder or a monster equipped with Big Bang Shot), the damage is calculated but the monster is still not destroyed in battle.

How does a face-down Attack position monster work?

A monster in face-down Attack position is unable to declare attacks. It can be flipped or Flip Summoned, both actions will switch it into face-up Attack position. It can also have its battle position change by the controlling player, switching it from face-down Attack position to face-down Defence position.


If a monster attacks a defense position monster and is itself changed to defense position by Kunai with Chain can it be destroyed by battle if the opposing monster's defense is higher?

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.

Can you attack with a monster that has its battle position changed to attack position during the same turn?

Yes, that is allowed. You cannot, however, attack and then change to defense in the same turn.


In Yu-Gi-Oh if you attack a monster stronger than you do you get destroyed?

Yes. If your monster is in attack position and you attack a monster that has more attack points than yours, your monster is destroyed and you take Battle Damage to your Life Points equal to the difference between your opponent's monster's Attack Points and your monster's Attack Points.

Can you play urgent tuning if you have no attack position monsters during your battle phase?

You don't necessarily have to have any monsters in attack position. The monsters you use for the Synchro Summon can be in defence mode, that doesn't matter. What matters is that they are face-up, because you can't use face-down monster for a Synchro Summon.


How can a monster be in face-down Attack position?

Only the Spell card Darkness Approaches can flip a monster into face-down Attack position. By discarding two cards, Darkness Approaches lets you flip one face-up monster face-down without changing the battle position (so a monster may end up in face-down Attack position).


Can a monster still change its battle position by a card effect if it was already selected by Creature Swap in Yu-Gi-Oh?

Yes. The 'cannot change battle position' limitation is only for manual changes such as flip summons or putting a monster into attack mode. The monster's position can still freely be changed by effects.

If a card effect prevents a card from changing its battle position can another effect change it?

In general, a restriction on changing a monster's battle position only applies to manual position changes, by the player. So If you took control of a monster with Creature Swap, you cannot manually change the battle position that turn. However that does not apply to other effects, they can be used to change the battle position. So Book of Moon would put it into face-down defence position as normal.
