Link Arrow
Link Arrows, known as Link Markers (リンクマーカー, Rinku Mākā) in the OCG, indicate where a Link Monster points to. Only the red arrows around a Link Monster's art frame are Link Arrows. The number of Link Arrows a Link Monster has is its Link Rating.
Link Arrows are not card effects and cannot be removed while the Link Monster is in a Monster Zone. If a Link Monster is in the Spell & Trap Zone, it is not treated as a Link Monster; therefore, it does not have Link Arrows and cannot point to anything.
In the HTML code of Konami's official database website, Link Arrows are marked with numbers on a numeric keypad. Thus the top row is 7, 8 and 9, the middle row is 4 and 6, and the bottom row is 1, 2 and 3. Available Arrows are generated by naming a class with these numbers, for example the class for "I:P Masquerena" is "link13", and the class for "Encode Talker" is "link823."
