205 - Type Line
- 205.1 - The card type (and subtype and supertype, if applicable) of a card
is printed directly below the illustration. (See
Rule 212, "Card Type, Supertype, and Subtype.") [CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.2 - Card Types
- 205.2a - The card types are artifact, creature, enchantment, instant, land,
planeswalker, sorcery, and tribal. [CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.2b - Some objects have more than one card type (for example, an artifact
creature). Such objects satisfy the criteria for any effect that applies
to any of their card types. [CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.3 - Subtypes
- 205.3a - A card can have one or more subtypes printed on its type line.
[CompRules 2003/07/01]
- 205.3b - Subtypes are always single words and are listed after a long dash.
Each word after the dash is a separate subtype. [CompRules 2004/10/01]
- 205.3c - Subtypes of a [card type] object are also called [card type] types.
For example, creature subtypes are also called creature types. Objects
may have multiple subtypes. [CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.3d - Artifact, enchantment, land, and planeswalker each have their own
unique set of possible subtypes. Instant and sorcery share their lists of
subtypes; these subtypes are called spell types. Creature and tribal also
share their lists of subtypes; these subtypes are called creature
types. (You can find complete lists of subtypes in the glossary at the
end of this document under "Creature Types," "Land Types," and so on.)
[CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.3e - If a card with multiple card types has one or more subtypes, each
subtype is correlated to its appropriate type. [CompRules 2007/10/01]
Example: Dryad Arbor's type line says "Land Creature - Forest Dryad."
Forest is a land type, and Dryad is a creature type.
[CompRules 2007/05/01]
- 205.4 - Supertypes
- 205.4a - A card can also have one or more supertypes. These are printed
directly before its card types. If an object's card types or subtypes
change, any supertypes it has are kept, although they may not be relevant
to the new card type. [CompRules 2007/10/01]
- 205.4b - Any land with the supertype "basic" is a basic land. Any land that
doesn't have this supertype is a nonbasic land.
Example: Note that cards printed in sets prior to the Eighth Edition core
set didn't use the word "basic" to indicate a basic land. Cards from
those sets with the following names are basic lands: Forest, Island,
Mountain, Plains, Swamp, Snow-Covered Forest,
Snow-Covered Island, Snow-Covered Mountain, Snow-Covered Plains,
and Snow-Covered Swamp. [CompRules 2003/07/01]
- 205.4c - Any permanent with the supertype "legendary" is subject to the
state-based effect for legendary permanents, also called the "legend
rule" (see Rule 420.5i). [CompRules 2004/10/01]
- 205.4d - Any permanent with the supertype "world" is subject to the
state-based effect for world permanents, also called the "world rule" (see
Rule 420.5i). [CompRules 2004/10/01]
- 205.4e - Any permanent with the supertype "snow" is a snow permanent.
Any permanent that doesn't have this supertype is a nonsnow permanent,
regardless of its name. [CompRules 2006/07/15]
