Modifications can be obtained from a variety of sources. Recorded sources of modifications include [[Decrees]], [[Blessings]], [[Wills]], [[Weather||Weathers]], [[Items]], as well as various events that happen during a Blaseball game. Some modifications can also spawn related modifications, such as how a player with ''{{ModLink|Fire Eater}}'' will have the modification ''{{ModLink|Magmatic}}'' after they ate fire.

A modification grants various effects to its holder. Some are beneficial, some are detrimental, and some simply work as indicators. Some modifications also have mysterious effects which are not immediately obvious, such as the case with {{ModLink|Observed}}. Player modification will affect that player only and will be carried with them if they switched team, while team modifications will take effect for every player currently in that team regardless of when they joined.
  
Each modification has a set '''Duration'''. These Durations dictate when the modification will be removed, but is not necessarily an indicator of how long they will last. For example, despite having its Duration set as Permanent, ''{{ModLink|Magmatic}}'' will usually quickly wear off within a single game. Some Permanent modifications may also disappear for reasons yet unknown, such as the case for ''{{ModLink|Elsewhere}}'' and ''{{ModLink|Scattered}}''.

Player and team-based modifications can be reliably gained or changed through [[Wills]]. ''Reform'' can replace a modification with Permanent duration, ''Enrich'' can grant a team various seasonal modifications,  and ''Trust'' or ''Alternate Trust'' can give a single player a specific beneficial modification. [[Ballpark]] modifications can be gained through [[Renovations]] every [[Latesiesta]].
