How the card Will Look

Monster: The basic of my set is going to look like a yugioh card. But with the atk on the left side of the card and the def on the right side of the card. The Name, effect and picture will be in the same place as Yugioh cards and the level/cost will be at the bottom of the card, under the effect and between the atk and def.

White/Black Card: The basic looks the same as a yugioh spell or trap card but, if it is a defence spell or trap its base color is white and if it is an attack the base color is black. The name and text are in the same place as on a yugioh card but they also have a cost/level at the bottom of the card, in the same place as a monster cards.
