"Gokibore", "Kuwagata α", "Basic Insect", and "Kumootoko" in the artwork of "Giant Ballpark".

Insect (Japanese: こんちゅう Konchū) is a Type or Monster Card. It debuted in Vol.1 in the OCG, Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon in the TCG, and Deck Mod Pack: Hyperspeed Rush Road!! in Rush Duel.

Overview

The Insect Type is depicted as variations of bugs, including both true insects, arachnids, and variations thereof. Certain monsters based on worms, ticks and other creepy-crawlers also appear. They range in shapes and forms, from relatively resembling real-life Insects (such as "Reed Butterfly"), humanoids (such as "Insect Knight"), to much more fantastical and weird (such as "Minar"). The common attributes associated with Insects are EARTH and WIND, although there are Insects for every single Attribute in the game bar DIVINE.

Insect is a versatile and somewhat well-supported Type that goes back to the early history of the game. They typically act like their namesake by swarming the field and replacing themselves when removed. A number of early Insect supports also pitch their synergistic relationship to go hand-in-hand with Plant monsters. While the recent support often bundled beneficial effect for both Types, thus allows some hybridization. The Type also contains a lot of low-Level monsters with powerful utility effects, or higher ATK for their Level.
