{{merge|Cost}}

[[Costs]] for cards come in three varieties.

The third kind of cost is non-"maintenance" costs for cards that remain on the field. Examples include paying Life Points to attack with "[[Dark Elf]]", "[[Jirai Gumo]]", or [[Toon Monster]]s. These are not "maintenance" costs because they are not costs that are paid to keep the card on the field. These costs are negated when the card's effect is negated. So if "Skill Drain" is active then you do not pay the cost for attacking with such monsters.
