Silence
"Reduces the Magic Attack of all enemy Monsters."
Can be Cleansed
Notable Rulesets
| Top 3 Rulesets | Bottom 3 Rulesets |
| Weak Magic - Magic attacks strike armor first - hamstring your opponent's magic attack monsters further with silence. | Lost Magic - Magic monsters may not be used rendering silence useless. |
| Broken Arrows - Ranged attack monsters can not be used, increasing the odds that your opponent will rely heavily upon magic attack monsters. | Melee Mayhem - Only melee attack monsters can be used rendering silence useless. |
| Return Fire - Ranged attack monsters take damage from landed ranged attacks. Reduce their magic attacks as well! | Up Close and Personal - Only melee attack monsters can be used - negating the need for Silence. |
Notable Abilities
| Top 3 Abilities | Bottom 3 Abilities |
| Headwinds - combine headwinds and silence to reduce your opponents ranged and magic attacks. | Blast - Although magic attacks are reduced by 1 with Silence, they can not reduce to 0. If your opponent plays a magic monster with the blast ability, your adjacent monsters will still take damage. |
| Phase - Magic attacks can miss monsters with phase. The silence and phase abilities are great counters for magic reliant teams. | Return Fire/Magic Reflect - Ensure that your ranged or magic attack monsters with weaken can take what they dish out! Keep in mind that Silence dies with your monster. |
| Blind - Increase the likelihood that your opponents melee and ranged attack monsters will miss their targets. Cover all of you bases by adding Silence to the mix. | Cleanse - If your opponent has a monster with cleanse in their lineup, be aware that Silence can be cleansed. |
