Subtype
サブタイプ (Sabutaipu)
Dmwiki.net: Article
Category: Cards that have a Subtype

Subtype is a gameplay characteristic.

Details

It is generally written in a smaller font under the Card Name. Those without notation, are cards without a subtype.

If a creature has a subtype, it is known as a race. Besides creatures, spells and cross gear may also have a subtype.

  • For example, spells have Knight and cross gear have the Samurai subtype.

As a rule, a creature always has a race. However each of the other cardtypes such as castle, weapon, fortress or cell have never had a subtype printed on them.

Previously when a subtype was listed under the card name of a spell or cross gear, it was also known as a race, but in the Duel Masters General Game Rules released in July 2015, it was noted that it is only a race when listed on a creature, and is otherwise a subtype.

Nevertheless, the effect text of Universe Lapia seems to ignore this, by giving the "Phoenix race" to each of your cards in your mana zone, deck, graveyard and in the battle zone. There are no cards that explicitly mention "subtype" in their text.

Rulings

From the Duel Masters - General Game Rules: Version 1.41 (April 12, 2024)

  • 203. Race
    • 203.1. Race is a characteristic of cards. It is usually printed just under the card name.
    • 203.2. Some effect refers to races or partial parts of them. In that case, it includes each race that includes that specific part.

      Example: Specifying 'Dragon' for a card effect refers to all creatures that have 'Dragon' in the race.

    • 203.3. Races may be added by an effect.
    • 203.4. When choosing a race, you can't choose part of a race that doesn't exist by itself on a card.

      Example: 'Cyber' doesn't exist by itself as a race by itself, so it can't be chosen.
