Type
Types are a means to split monsters into groups (in a broader way to what Attributes do) in order to enable Support Cards granting various effects, to a specific order of monsters. Players use Field Spell Cards to use Type divides to their advantage.
Each monster has 1 Type. There are 22 different legal Types in the OCG & TCG:. Divine-Beast is exclusive to the Egyptian Gods and was considered Illegal, although it is now Legal in the OCG. Immortal only appears in "Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelists of the Roses".
