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:

    “Mothers are not the nameless, faceless stereotypes who appear once a year on a greeting card with their virtues set to prose, but women who have been dealt a hand for life and play each card one at a time the best way they know how. No mother is all good or all bad, all laughing or all serious, all loving or all angry. Ambivalence rushes through their veins.”
    —Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    “He’s one of those know-it-all types that, if you flatter the wig off him, he chatter like a goony bird at mating time.”
    —Michael Blankfort. Lewis Milestone. Johnson (Reginald Gardner)
