{{Merge|Support|These have always had ambiguous separation from each other at best|discussion=Talk:Support}}{{Unofficial terminology}}'''Anti-support''' is an unofficial term for an interaction used in which a card specifically affects cards with a particular property in some way beneficial to the player who ''[[possessTCG]]es the supported card. For example, "'' community for [[System Downsupport]]" [[banish]]es all [[Machine]]-[[Type]] monsters from ing interactions that harm the possessor of the opponent'affected card(s field and Graveyard). Because "negative effect" lacks a rigorous definition, thus it anti-supports Machineare identified subjectively on a case-by-Type monsterscase basis.

If a card instead affects the possessor of a card(s) with the specified property in a positive way, the interaction is instead referred to as [[support]]. For example, "[[The Warrior Returning Alive]]" [[add]]s 1 [[Warrior]]-[[Type]] [[Monster Card|monster]] from its controller's [[Graveyard]] to their [[hand]], thus it supports Warrior-Type monsters. ==Examples==<!-- this is not by any means meant to be exhaustive; we don't need e.g. one example per Type -->* "[[Goblin Pothole Squad]]" provides anti-support for the "[[Trap Hole (archetype)|Trap Hole]]" archetype.* "[[Ally of Justice]]" monsters provide anti-support for [[LIGHT]] monsters.* "[[Last Day of Witch]]" provides anti-support for [[Spellcaster]]-[[Type]] monsters.* "[[Ritual Sealing]]" provides anti-support for [[Ritual Monster]]s.* "[[White Hole]]" provides anti-support for "[[Dark Hole]]". =Manga=All OCG/TCG anti-support cards=={{ #ask: [[Class 1::Official]] [[Card category::Monster Card]] query|[[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] monster|?Type medium= [[Type]] manga|?Stars string extra_column= [[Level]]/[[Rank]] |?ATK string = [[ATK]] |?DEF string = [[DEF]] |?Anti-support=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Class 1::Official]] [[Card type::Spell Cardquery||Trap Card]] [[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type = [[Card type]] nonmonster|?S/T Class medium= [[Property]] manga|?Anti-supportextra_column=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Class 1::Official]] [[Card category::Monster Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] |?Type = [[Type]] |?Stars string = [[Level]]/[[Rank]] |?ATK string = [[ATK]] |?DEF string = [[DEF]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Class 1::Official]] [[Card type::Spell Card||Trap Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type = [[Card type]] |?S/T Class = [[Property]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }} ==All Anime anti-support cards=={{ #ask: [[Medium::Anime]] [[Card type::Monster Card]] [[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Primary type=Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] |?Type = [[Type]] |?Stars string = [[Level]]/[[Rank]] |?ATK string = [[ATK]] |?DEF string = [[DEF]] |?Anti-support=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Anime]][[Card type::Spell Card||Trap Card]] [[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name query|?Card type = [[Card type]] |?Property = [[Property]] |?Anti-support=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Anime]] [[Card type::Monster Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Primary type=Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] |?Type = [[Type]] |?Stars string = [[Level]]/[[Rank]] monster|?ATK string medium= [[ATK]] manga|?DEF string extra_column= [[DEF]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Anime]][[Card type::Spell Cardquery||Trap Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type = [[Card type]] nonmonster|?Property medium= [[Property]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) manga|class extra_column= sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }} ==All Manga anti-support cards=={{ #ask: [[Medium::Manga]] [[Card type::Monster Card]] [[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Primary type=Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] |?Type = [[Type]] |?Stars string = [[Level]]/[[Rank]] |?ATK string = [[ATK]] |?DEF string = [[DEF]] |?Anti-support=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Manga]][[Card type::Spell Card||Trap Card]] [[Anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type = [[Card type]] |?Property = [[Property]] |?Anti-support=Anti-supports card(s)/group(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Manga]] [[Card type::Monster Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Primary type=Card type |?Attribute = [[Attribute]] |?Type = [[Type]] |?Stars string = [[Level]]/[[Rank]] |?ATK string = [[ATK]] |?DEF string = [[DEF]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}{{ #ask: [[Medium::Manga]][[Card type::Spell Card||Trap Card]] [[Archetype anti-support::+]] |?Japanese name |?Card type = [[Card type]] |?Property = [[Property]] |?Archetype anti-support=Anti-supports archetype(s) |class = sortable wikitable smwtable card-list |headers=plain |limit=10 }}
