An example of G unit, Divine Knight King, Alfred Holy Saver.

"G unit" (Gユニット Ji Yunitto) is a type of unit. Currently, all G units are grade 4. Unlike normal units and trigger units, G units are placed in the G deck during deck construction, which can contain up to 16 cards with a maximum of 4 copies of a card by name.

The appearance of a G unit card is based on its mechanic:

  • G units with Stride have a red card frame and no [Shield] Shield icon value.
  • G units with G guardian have a green card frame, an elaborate box for their [Shield] Shield icon value and a "G-GUARDIAN" label in place of [Power] Power icon and [Critical] Critical icon values.

Rules[]

  • During setup, a player's G deck is placed face down into his or her G zone. The G deck need not be shuffled; a player may view the face-down cards in his or her G zone at any time, but the face-down cards in it may not be shown to the other player.
  • G units cannot be normal rode nor normal called. Instead, they have procedures which allow themselves to be placed on the field.
  • During a game, cards in a player's G zone may be placed face up. The face-up cards in each player's G zone are public information.
  • A G unit card can only exist in the G zone or on the field. If a G unit would be put into any other zone (hand, soul, drop zone, etc.) from the field, it is instead returned to the G zone face up. If a G unit would be turned face down while on the field, except by being deleted, it is also returned to the G zone face up.
  • In D-icon Standard, a G deck may only be constructed if the ride deck contains one of the following combination of cards:
  • During a game of D-icon Standard, a player's G zone is treated as non-existent unless that player can "perform Stride" through an effect.
    • Cards in the G zone are not referenced, cards cannot be moved out of the G zone, and any abilities possessed by cards in the G zone are nullified.
    • If there is a rule or effect that moves a card outside the G zone to the G zone during the end phase or for any other reason, that card moves to the G zone according to the normal rules.

Trivia[]

  • Harmonics Messiah is the only G unit with a card frame that is the same color as normal units. This is because it was released prior to G units' mechanics being officially revealed.
