Damage calculation (Japanese: ダメージ計（けい）算（さん） damēji keisan) is the process during the Damage Step of calculating the battle damage done to Life Points from an attack and determining which monster(s) is to be destroyed (if any). When a direct attack is performed, the damage inflicted is equal to the current ATK of the attacking monster unless stated on the card, as is the case with "Cyberdark Edge".
