Different Types of Cards.

As I had stated in my previous post I normally deal with Yu-Gi-Oh!® Trading Cards. What are the different kinds of cards? There are commonly three different types of cards in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh!®. They are as follows. All the cards had orange colored reverse sides.®

  1. Monster Cards - Details of these cards are boxed in a colored (except green or violet) background.
    • Normal Monsters -  Details of these cards are boxed in an orange background(exception the Demon Cards).
    • Fusion Monsters -  Details of these cards are boxed in a purple (white in later series; especially Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds ® ) background.
    • Ritual Monsters -  Details of these cards are boxed in an blue background.
    • God Cards - A trio cards -  Details of these cards are boxed in an blue, red, and yellow background. These cards had also their reverse side colored in the same as the front. 
  2. Spell Cards - Details of these cards are boxed in a green background.
  3. Trap cards - Details of these cards are boxed in a violet background.

 The cards are also ranked in their rarities as well. It is given below as follows in the ascending order.


  1. Common - Normal cards with no fancy art or letters.Just normal print.
  2. Rare - These cars are also normal cards. The only difference is that they have silver hologram letters imprinted on them.
  3. Super Rare - The artwork on the cards are in hologram.
  4. Ultra Rare - Both the artwork and letters are in hologram, but the letters are in gold.
  5. Secret Rare -  Both the artwork and letters are in hologram, but the letters are in silver.
  6. Ultimate Rare - Both the cards' name and artwork in holographic format. The main difference is the level of the card is also in hologram. The holograms are embossed.
