Zatch Bell! The Card Battle - Card Types

Card Types

Mamodo cards are the main cards in the game. They are the cards that allow you to cast spells, as well as defend your spellbook. A mamodo card is recognizable in that it is outlined with an orange border. A mamodo card represents its counterpart from the manga/anime.
Partner cards are attached to mamodo. Each one is mamodo specific, and when attached, it can give various effects. These are outlined with a blue border. Partner cards represent the humans from the series that own the spellbooks.
Spell cards allow you to utilize the various mamodo's powers. Unlike mamodo and partner cards, spells aren't removed from the book. Each card costs MP to use, and when activated can burn pages of your opponent's spell book or impede your opponent's actions. Spell cards are outlined in brown, and each one represents the special abilities of mamodo on the card. Many of the spells are taken straight from the series, but some are invented specifically for the game.
Event cards have various effects on gameplay, typically a stat boost. Like spells, they are not removed from the book unless specifically stated. They represent everything else in the story that doesn't revolve specifically around mamodo. Their outline is green.

Famous quotes containing the words card and/or types:

    “What is the disease which manifests itself in an inability to leave a party—any party at all—until it is all over and the lights are being put out?... I suppose that part of this mania for staying is due to a fear that, if I go, something good will happen and I’ll miss it. Somebody might do card tricks, or shoot somebody else.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “The rank and file have let their servants become their masters and dictators.... Provision should be made in all union constitutions for the recall of leaders. Big salaries should not be paid. Career hunters should be driven out, as well as leaders who use labor for political ends. These types are menaces to the advancement of labor.”
    —Mother Jones (1830–1930)
