300. General

In short

Übersicht der Kartentypen und zwei Grundregeln: Welche Typen bleibende Karten werden (und welche wie Spontanzauber/Hexereien nie das Schlachtfeld sehen) und dass Objekte verlorene Typen-Kombinationen nicht behalten. Die einzelnen Typen folgen in den Kapiteln 301 bis 315.

Informal summary — the official English text below is authoritative.

300.1.The card types are artifact, battle, conspiracy, creature, dungeon, enchantment, instant, kindred, land, phenomenon, plane, planeswalker, scheme, sorcery, and vanguard.

300.2.Some objects have more than one card type (for example, an artifact creature). Such objects combine the aspects of each of those card types, and are subject to spells and abilities that affect either or all of those card types.

300.2aAn object that’s both a land and another card type (for example, an artifact land) can only be played as a land. It can’t be cast as a spell.

300.2bEach kindred card has another card type. Casting and resolving a kindred card follow the rules for casting and resolving a card of the other card type.
