God is a race of creature that is shared between all 5 civilizations.
Gameplay
A creature with the God race will always feature the God Link keyword. This ability allows 2 or more creatures with this race to link together and form a single creature that combines each of its card characteristics, such as races, power and abilities together.
Gods can also be easily identified due to the card frame "spilling" out of the usual border towards the side where the God can be linked. Linking the other specified God will usually result in both Gods forming one larger picture with the "spill-over" artwork.
Most Gods can only link through either their left or right side, while others can link through both sides, forming an eventual 1x3 formation.
- In later cases starting with DM-27 Perfect Heaven, combinations of Gods can link on all 3 sides (top or bottom, left and right) in such a way that they form a 2x2 formation or even a 2x3 by DM-35 Neverending Saga.
While they stopped being printed in booster packs after DM-35, they later reappeared in DMR-09 Rage vs God as the God Nova race with easier linking capabilities by not requiring specific creatures.
- God Nova OMG then later appeared in DMR-11 Ultra Victory Master and DMD-14 Super Deck Omega: Treasures of Pure Wicked God and Izumo's Counterattack.

Rules
- As you put a God in the battle zone, and you have a God with the specified card name or corresponding God Link ability in the battle zone, you may choose to link them.
- Otherwise, you can't link God creatures together except through other card effects.
- Similar to evolution creatures, linked Gods don't get summoning sickness and can attack immediately, even if each of the linked Gods are put into the battle zone during that same turn.
- Some Gods have a Trigger Ability that occurs when they are linked, while others have a Static Ability that occurs while they are linked to another creature.
- Once linked together, the Gods are considered to be a single creature, with their costs, names, races, power, civilizations and abilities all combined.
- This also means that when Gods 2 or more of different civilizations are linked, the resulting creature is multicolored.
- When a linked God attacks, all of the linked Gods tap.
- When a linked God would leave the battle zone, the God's owner can choose which card of the link leaves the battle zone.
- When you evolve a linked God, all parts of the creature count as the Evolution Source, and when the top card of the evolution stack leaves the battle zone, each of the Gods are linked again.
- A linked god creature only destroys a single shield, unless one of the Gods has a Breaker keyword or static ability that gives a Breaker keyword while linked.
Rulings
From the Duel Masters - General Game Rules: Version 1.28 (April 8, 2022)
- 803. God
- 803.1. Gods are creatures that can be linked to specific other Gods.
- 803.1a Gods are linked together as they are put into the battle zone. Instead of linking after they are put into the battle zone, they are put into the battle zone in a linked state. This is a State Defined Effect.
- 803.1b A linked god is treated as a creature with all combined characteristics of each God that it conssts of, including name, abilities and civilizations. Regardless of the number of cards in the God Link, its only treated as one creature.
- 803.1c If a God is put into the battle zone and triggers a card abilities, it will only refer to the characteristics of the card that entered the battle zone, even if the God links to another creature.
- 803.1d When a God is put into the battle zone, if a replacement effect or a state based action other than God Link is applied, even if it links to become one creature, you refer to the characteristics of the card that is put into the battle zone.
- 803.2. A God is only able to link with specific God Link abilities.
- 803.2a God Link abilities that specify names and positions refer to the characteristics of individual cards.
Example: 'Aku, Ultimate God' and 'Zen, Transcendent God' have their respective names while linked as one god. However, you can't link another 'Zen, Transcendent God' on the right side of the linked God.
- 803.2b The God Link ability constantly checks that the God Link is correct. If its made incorrect, the link is immediately broken.
- 803.2c When linking a God with the ability of Center God Link 360, you may be unable to link the card directly, even if the card is next to it physically. For example, even if Gods are linked as ABCD in a U-shape, and A and D are next to each ther, you may be unable to link A and D together.
- 803.2a God Link abilities that specify names and positions refer to the characteristics of individual cards.
- 803.3. When a new God links, the creature is treated as the God that was already in the battle zone. If a God links when tapped, the new creature is tappd, and any effects that affected that creature will be applied to the linked creature.
Example: If a creature has its power decreased by 2000 until the end of the turn, this remains on the linked god.
- 803.3a If a 3-part God is linked together in different states of tap or untap, after the middle god is put, the card will be in a tapped state.
- 803.3b If a creature links midway through an attack, the attack continues.
- 803.4. If a linked God is unlinked and becomes an unlinked god, that creature is treated as if it were the same creature. Any effects that affected that linked creature will be applied to the newly unlinked creature.
- 803.4a When a God that consists of 3 or more cards leaves the battle zone and becomes 2 or more Gods, each God inherits the rest of the attack status. If the creature was being attacked, the attack player continues the attack.
- 803.5. A linked God doesn't get summoning sickness.
- 803.5a If a linked God is unlinked, it won't be affected by summoning sickess if it was in the battle zone at the start of a turn.
- 803.6. If a card name is chosen for a card effect, that player can choose one of the card names in the linked god.
- 803.7. When a God would leave the battle zone, only one card leaves the battle zone. This is a State Based Action and not a replacement effect.
- 803.1. Gods are creatures that can be linked to specific other Gods.
From the Duel Masters - General Game Rules: Version 1.28 (April 8, 2022)
- 803. ゴッド
- 803.1. ゴッドとは, 他の特定のゴッドとリンク可能なクリーチャーのことです.
- 803.1a ゴッドはバトルゾーンに出るに際してリンクします。バトルゾーンに出てからリンクするのではなく、リンクした状態でバトルゾーンに出ます。これは状態定義効果です。
- 803.1b リンクしたゴッドは, 1 体のクリーチャーとしてそれを構成する各ゴッドの名前, 能力, 文明などの特性をすべて持つものとして扱います.ただし, それを構成する各カードの個別の特性を変更させるものではなく, 集合体として 1 体のクリーチャーとして扱うことに注意してください.
- 803.1c ゴッドがバトルゾーンに出ることでカードの能力が誘発する場合、そのゴッドがリンクして1体のクリーチャーになったとしても、実際にバトルゾーンに出たカードの特性を参照します。
- 803.1d ゴッドがバトルゾーンに出る際に、置換効果やG・リンク以外の状態定義効果が適用される場合、そのゴッドがリンクして1体のクリーチャーになったとしても、実際にバトルゾーンに出るカードの特性を参照します。
- 803.2. ゴッドをリンクさせるためには適正な G・リンク能力が必要です.
- 803.2a 名前と位置を指定する G・リンクは, 個別のカードの特性を参照します.例:リンクした超絶神ゼンと究極神アクは, 1 体のゴッドとしてそれぞれのゴッドの名前を持ちますが, 超絶神ゼンの個別のカードが特性として究極神アクになったわけではないので, リンクした超絶神ゼンの右横に別の超絶神ゼンをリンクさせることはできません.
- 803.2b G・リンク能力は常にそれが正しいかどうかをチェックします.不正な状態になったとき, 直ちにそのリンクははずされます.
- 803.2c 中央 G・リンク 360 の能力によってゴッドをリンクさせるとき, 隣同士であっても実際は直接リンクしていない場所が生まれる場合があります.たとえば, A-B-C-D とコの字型にリンクするとき, A と D は隣同士ですが直接リンクしていません.そのリンクしていない箇所にゴッドをつなぐ場合は平面状で構成できる範囲に限ります.物理的にふさがれている箇所に新たにゴッドをリンクさせることはできません.
- 803.3. ゴッドが新たにリンクしてもそのクリーチャーはすでにバトルゾーンにあったものと同一のクリーチャーとして扱います.タップされたゴッドがリンクしてもタップされたままであり, そのクリーチャーに適用される効果は, それがリンクした後も適用され続けます.例 . ターン終了時までパワー-2000 の修正を受けたゴッドがリンクした場合, リンクした後もパワー-2000 の修正は残ったままです.
- 803.3a 3 体でリンク可能なゴッドの右側と左側がタップとアンタップの異なる位相の場合, 中央のゴッドを出して 3 体リンクした場合は, タップされた状態になります.
- 803.3b 攻撃中のゴッドがリンクした場合, その攻撃は続行されます.
- 803.4. ゴッドリンクしたクリーチャーのリンクが外れてリンクしていないゴッドになっても, そのクリーチャーは同一のクリーチャーであったものとして扱います.そのクリーチャーに適用される効果は, それがリンクを外れた後も適用され続けます.
- 803.4a 3 枚以上のカードで構成されるゴッドがバトルゾーンを離れて 2 体以上のゴッドになるとき, それぞれのゴッドが適用されていた効果をすべて引き継ぎます.それが攻撃中であった場合, 攻撃プレイヤーはそのどちらか片方を選び攻撃を続行します.
- 803.5. リンクしたゴッドは召喚酔いしません.
- 803.5a 一度リンクしたゴッドのリンクが外れた場合, それがターンのはじめからバトルゾーンにあったのであれば新たに召喚酔いに影響されません.
- 803.6. 何らかの効果によりプレイヤーがカード名を 1 つ指定する場合, そのプレイヤーはリンクしたゴッドに含まれるいずれかのカード名を指定できますが, すべてを指定することはできません.
- 803.7. ゴッドがバトルゾーンを離れる場合, そのうちの 1 枚のみがバトルゾーンを離れます.これは状況起因処理であり, 置換効果ではありません.
- 803.1. ゴッドとは, 他の特定のゴッドとリンク可能なクリーチャーのことです.
