The [[original Level]] of a Monster Card is represented by a number of stars [[File:CG Star.svg|18px|alt=a yellow star on an orange circle]] in the top-right (except for "[[Ultimaya Tzolkin]]" and "[[Ultimitl Bishbalkin the Ultimate Legendary God]]", which has each have a [[Level condition]] that determines its their [[original Level]] instead of their marked Level of 0).
In the ''[[OCG]]''/''[[TCG]]'', monsters' original Ranks can range from 1 to 12. A monster's original Level is a rough indication of how powerful it is.
