Ship is an atypical, and now obsolete, blue creature type used for cards picturing ships and zeppelins. Pirate Ship established Ship as a creature type all the way back in Alpha, though it would be quite a while before the odd line “Creature — Ship” actually appeared on Talas Air Ship.
In the Grand Creature Type Update the subtype Ship was eliminated, mostly replaced by the race of the shipscrew.

Never been ship-type
- Skeleton Ship from Ice Age never was a Ship, it changed from Legend to Skeleton.
- Rishadan Airship from Mercadian Masques never was a Ship, it changed from Pirate to Human Pirate.
Exception to the rule
Artifacts
Because non-creature artifacts never have creature types these Ships never were named as such in the type line:
- Predator, Flagship from Nemesis
- Skyship Weatherlight from Apocalypse
- Skysovereign, Consul Flagship from Kaladesh (and other vehicles).
After the introduction of the artifact subtype Vehicle, Ships were heavily featured as such in the Ixalan block.
