Template:Infobox type
Infobox type | |
---|---|
Card Type | |
Scryfall Statistics | |
Standard infobox template (appearing in upper right corner of page) for card types, subtypes and supertypes.
Usage
This can be used for all 3 levels of type. With evergreen card types, not many details are needed as these are fundamental to card typing and not associated with specific sets or other types or mechanics, with rules too complex to summarize. Evergreen supertypes are similar, except rules specific to them may be summarized. Non-evergreen types should have printing information, and subtypes should state their corresponding card type and possibly rules summary.
Parameters
Exactly one of these parameters is required:
- For card types: subtype - Formatted link to article for its associated card types, e.g.
[[Creature type]]
for Creature and Kindred,[[Spell type]]

or similar for most other types, orNone
for some special types - For all others: type - Unformatted categorizing word, one of:
- for a supertype,
super
- for a subtype, associated card type as:
