These effects do not start a [[Chain]]. "[[Jinzo]]" and "[[Starduston]]" are two such cards with Continuous Effects. Since Continuous Monster Effects do not start a Chain, they cannot be negated by cards that can only respond to the [[Activate|activation]] of effects, such as "[[Divine Wrath]]" and "[[Doomcaliber Knight]]". However, they can be negated by other effects that negate monster effects without needing to respond to an activation (such as "[[Skill Drain]]" and "[[Effect Veiler]]"). Some Continuous Monster Effects only have an effect when specific requirements are met, rather than being applied as long as the monster is face-up on the field. "[[Bountiful Artemis]]", "[[Ancient Gear Golem]]", and "[[Steamroid]]" are cards with this kind of Continuous Effect. Continuous effects are now much easier defined upon the release of problem solving text in [[Generation Force]]. A continuous effect will now not have a colon or semicolon in the effect, whereas [[Trigger Effect]]s and [[Ignition Effect]]s will. ==Example==[[File:Jinzo-BP01-EN-SFR-1E.png|width=400|link=Jinzo|center]] Summary ==List of TCG and OCG Monsters with Continuous Monster Effects=={{#ask: [[Class 1::Official]] [[Effect type::{{PAGENAME}}]] |?Japanese name |?Rank |?Level |?Attribute |?Type |?Card type |?ATK |?DEF |??ATK |??DEF |limit=10}} {{Gameplay}} [[Category:Gameplay]]Importing file
