=== Types of support gems ===
==== Support cards ====
Support gems created by an ordinary support card act as described on the card. Ordinary supports {{Ability|reinforce}} if played when you already control the same support in play, unless otherwise specified on the card. When a support gem which was cast as a support card is destroyed from play, the support card enters the graveyard.
==== Support tokens ====
Support tokens are created by effects rather than being cast as a card. When destroyed, support tokens do not enter the graveyard; they just disappear. Support tokens have the same appearance on the gem board as support cards, and unless otherwise specified are affected by the same effects and abilities that affect support gems cast as cards.
