Normal Monsters are the very first variety of Monster Cards that you should be familiarizing yourself with. Following on from "Basics of Monster Cards", there are only a few key differences. Let's use another well-known card as an example; "Blue-Eyes White Dragon".

Normal Monsters do not have effects, although other cards can require them to be activated or used.
