Subtypes, how to, when to, rules for subtypes

[Ultimate Ryan]

I have been seeing people make new Subtypes, but they aren't actually subtypes 0.o here is how to make a proper subtype.

 

1 - A Subtype should not have the same word in the names of all the cards of that subtype.

 

2 - All monsters of the same subtype should have the same or near same text in the beginning of every card.

 

There, with those 2 steps you can successfully make a good new subtype! Hope I helped!

wrong section. :?

 

but, archtypes, must begin with the same word/words.

 

Subtypes dont need to...

[Guest JoshIcy]

Simplistic to a fault -,-" The one I used in my guide, [check sig spoiler] is a lot more advanced that this....

[Ultimate Ryan]

you have it backwards read the toons/gemini's/unions

then look at....sacred beast

Archtypes can but dont have to.

[Huntar!]

what about union monsters? They dont all start with "union" in their names...

[Ultimate Ryan]

not with names >.< in the effect >.

[Huntar!]

xD

 

my bad... now Im gonna stop spamming.... [.^convo._-_.ender^.]

 

why dont you just get this moved or locked?

[Ultimate Ryan]

why?

[Wyhe]

but Tuner monsters are an exception to the rule, their ability to synchro summon cards seem to be pre-known knowledge

[Chaos Master Ygo]

Wrong Section

[Judαs]

1 - A Subtype should not have the same word in the names of all the cards of that subtype.

Why not? There's no rule that says a subtype can't also have an archetype' date=' the two aren't mutually exclusive. Generally, subtypes have cards for all different kinds of archetypes and even some just for types, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you can't have both in one.

 

2 - All monsters of the same subtype should have the same or near same text in the beginning of every card.

Not true. Tuners don't have any text like that (especially considering some of them are Normal Monsters), Union monsters generally have most of it at the end of the card, my Force monsters all have different effects (though, they all involve activating Push Spells), etc.

 

 

It was a good idea, but with how simple and general you made it there's a lot of exceptions that almost make it even harder to understand and use.

[Ultimate Ryan]

a subtype can have an archtype, what I meant is like except toon monsters no subtypes have the subtype in there name like it wouldnt be

Union Machine, or Gemini Wolf it would be better like

Equiption Machine, or Dual Wolf

[Kizzi]

The text can also be at the end.

@Ryan: IIRC, Dual is Gemini in the OCG. :P

*facepalm myself*

Please, lock I epically failed with this >.<
