Battle between two 0 ATK monsters

Sorry if it seems like a noob question.

Usually when two monster with the same ATK battles (both in attack position) they will both be destroyed.

But I just discovered that if both have 0 ATK, nothing will happen. Can anyone confirm this? And, why?

Confirmed, Monsters with 0 ATK cannot destroy anything by battle, if in Attack Position, even another monster with 0 ATK.

anoymous

That is correct. Monsters with 0 ATK cannot destroy anything by battle, according to the official rulebook. This rule also applies to Speed Duels.

Think of it like ATK is battle damage. Monsters with same ATK receives equal amount of damage and therefore are both destroyed. While 0 ATK mean 0 damage.

anoymous

because 0 ATK means harmless. You can't kill your opponent by smiling at them, for example.

Yes, it's true that neither monster is destroyed if their ATK is 0.
It's just a rule of Damage Calculation.
