Blue-Eyes White Dragon
A card, with the ATK visible in the lower-right corner ("Blue-Eyes White Dragon")

ATK, short for Attack Points[Notes 1] (Japanese: 攻（こう）撃（げき）力（りょく） Kōgekiryoku, lit. "Attack Power"),[Notes 2] is one of the two primary stats of monsters in Duel Monsters (including the TCG/OCG) and Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel, alongside DEF. When an Attack Position monster battles, its ATK is used during damage calculation.

In Rush Duel, Maximum Monsters have MAXIMUM ATK, which they use while in Maximum Mode.

Card layout[edit]

In the Series 1 and 2 layouts (only ever used in Japan), the ATK of a Monster Card is displayed in the upper of the ATK/DEF boxes, located in the lower-right corner of the card, to the right of the card text box.

From the Series 3 layout onward, the ATK of Monster Cards is displayed in the lower right corner of the card text box below a horizontal line, to the left of its DEF.

Gauges[edit]

The following gauges are displayed to keep track of ATK in the anime.
