A card effect is any effect in the game introduced by a specific card, excluding the conditions and costs of that card. Card effects include the effects of Monster, Spell, and Trap cards.

The card effect, as well as any costs and conditions (and materials for most Extra Deck monsters), are detailed in the card text.

Trivia

  • In the Japanese anime, card effects are often called "special abilities" (tokushū nōryoku). In the manga, they are referred to as both "effects" and "special abilities"; they are also very rarely referred to as "powers".
