: Were you looking for the Groups Category?
Groups, which are still Archetypes in the code, are labels applied to cards that get grouped together. These cards commonly interact with other cards differently depending on whether they share a given group or not. This makes decks with groups widely played in BLOX Cards.
__TOC__
== True Groups ==
These Groups form their own, singular decks, and are not expected to mingle with other decks. Think of them as a family.
* Ultra: Play small void fighters that shuffle very powerful fighters into your deck for free but only when you control the Ultra Gate, then annihilate your opponent.
* Morphic: Target your own Morphic Goo to exploit luck and get random fighters (OP fighters included). 
* Police: Jail you and your opponent's fighters with police, buff with police, and bust in for the kill.

* Infurnished: Rapidly swarm glass cannons and cards into your baseplate to trigger effects, pile up into big fighters and summon the True Chairman!

* Gladiator: Call upon extremely powerful synergistic fighters with the ability to fetch others of its own Group at the cost of having strict deck requirements! (Note: Though they are a group, they are better considered as a playstyle due to their conditions for usage)
* Shovelware: Invest in your baseplate with Cash Grabs, collect your paychecks with the group's terrain, and use overworked employees to burn out your opponent's life! 
* Neodragon: Mega-ramp and bedazzle the opponent with the sheer strength of your rainbow fighters! 
* Pixie: Annoy the opponent by putting Pixie's Mischief in your opponent's baseplate and the top of the deck, while activating effects to annoy their field!

== Shell Groups ==
These Groups typically take up fewer than 10 card slots in a deck. Designed to be played together, but not designed to be the main focus of a deck. (There are times where a deck made solely from cards of this type can win for some shell groups though.)
* Cat's Eye: Cascade from a god to a mere winglet and never run out of steam that way.
* Titan: Control the field, stall the match while enriching your baseplate with tanky titans until you can summon The Forgotten One to bring the end.

* Extant: Cast archeological beasts, and trigger a pile of effects when they die!
== Factions==
These are similar to groups in that they are designed to be used together in a dedicated deck, but are more loosely related to each-other and have a Logo instead of an Archetype. Think of them as people that share the same interests.
*NeFoCo: 'Séance' cards from your graveyard as tiny fighters and swarm your opponent before they expire!
*CRP: Turn your fighters that are close to dying into 500/300 zombified clones of themselves so you can maintain their value!
*Smiley Family: Obliterate cards in your graveyard to activate brutal effects!
*Arkhive: Recur and manipulate top cards from your graveyard to your hand so you can recycle them!
*PLURRAL: Sacrifice 4 or more of your fighters to enter Bliss for the rest of the game, keeping the party up with insane value!
*Lordbreakers: Attack and destroy fighters to gain access to your graveyard and free your fallen cards from there!
== Playstyles==
Playstyles are based around a shared mechanic and are not a Group, albeit players can think of them as one. These "Playstyles" are meant to be played together in a deck, but unlike grouped cards, they can be implemented into other decks.
Be aware that Buildarounds are not playstyles. They are decks usually built around or only support one or two specific cards. This applies to things such as Crossover, SlingshotJunkie and OTK (One Turn Kill) decks, and are gimmicky by nature. Shedletsky does not count because it's already grouped and has cards that directly support it.
*Lunar: Cast action after action and control the field indirectly.
*Lifegain: Gain as much life as possible, stacking value until your opponent's ban.
*Lifeloss: Burn away your life and dominate over your opponent before your inevitable death.
*Terrarians: Spam terrains left and right, then animate them with Living World to reach maximum value!
*Crowd's Favour: Fill up your board at insane speeds to gain the Crowd's Favour and decimate your opponent with the rewards!

*Blessing: Make use of blessings to get huge fighters constantly!

* Opponent Lifegain: Give the opponent life to enable powerful effects!
*Swap: Swap your fighters for massive stat swings, effects, and control! All in one!
*Lockspam: Repeatedly lock your own fighters (or enemies) in order to trigger tremendous effects!
