Rollo T's Top 10 Dragon
Cards
10. Different Dimension Dragon.
1200/1500 5 star monster. This is not my first pick for Dragons. It's
effect is nice though. It can't be destroyed by Spell or Trap unless they
specifically designate a target (a.k.a its immune to Dark Hole, Raigeki, Mirror
Force, etc.) and can't be destroyed by monsters with 1900 or less atk. It's not
a horrible card as its both Sangan and Witch searchable, its' effect just
doesn't make up for the tribute it takes to bring it
out.
9. Dragon Dwelling in the Cave.
1300/2000. It's a Dragon type Giant Solider of Stone. Not much to say about it,
but that its a good stall card to help bring out more powerful
monsters.
8. Cave Dragon. This card has 2000
attack and needs no tributes! You know there has to be a weak point, and there
are 2. First this card has only 100 Def (Witch searchable) and if there are any
other monsters on your side of the field it must be flip summoned, in addition
it can't attack unless you have another Dragon type on the field. Still 2000 atk
is nothing to laugh at.
7. Luster Dragon #2. 6 Stars,
2400 attack, and 1400 defense, no effect. Think Summoned Skull only weaker
and in Dragon form. Now be honest with yourself, you know must of us ran a
Summoned Skull in our decks at one time or another, and this isn't a bad
monster for being a Dragon type. It's Witch searchable and able to stand up
to big bad Jinzo. It's not the best or worst, but if you feel the need to use
this guy, go right ahead.
6. Paladin of White Dragon.
1900/1200 Ritual monster. That means you need both PoWD and its Ritual card to
bring this guy out, but if you do get both its only a 4 star sacrafice needed.
This card can immediatly destroy any face down card it attacks, so no Man-Eater
Bug nor any damage recieved for attacking Labriynth Wall and it's destroyed. In
addition you can destroy this card to bring out Blue Eyes, and although it can't
attack that turn, it's still a very useful tactic for bringing out the old
monster destroyer Blue Eyes.
5. Troop Dragon. I don't get it.
This card is really good especially in Dragon decks, but I'm the only person I
know that runs even 1 let alone 3 in his/her deck. Maybe some people don't
quite get the effect. The card specifies that when it is destroyed and sent to
graveyard, so that include cards like, Card Destruction, Magic Jammer, Needle
Worm, any that involve this card going to graveyard, and getting another one of
those guys on the field really helps getting high leveled Dragons out on the
field.
4. Luster Dragon. This is a
very awesome Dragon type. 1900/1600 no tribute effect-less Dragon. Why is
this so good, I mean it's not even Witch searchable!? Simple, few non-tribute
Dragons can stand on their own, let alone deal some big damage, but this card
changes that. With 1900 atk and no effect to make this card worse, this is a
Dragon deck essiential.
3. Spear Dragon. This card is
1900/0. No defense... well that means its Witch searchable, but you know there
has to be another reason for it. Oh that's it, this card is like Goblin Attack
Force, as it switches to DEF at then end of the attack, but can be switched back
next turn. Then why is this card better than Luster Dragon? It has the Fairy
Meteor Crush effect, so your oppenent sends out some Scapegoats and you take
them down with Spear and deal 1900 damage each
turn.
2. Tyrant Dragon. Tyrant
Dragon... 2900/2500... This card broke some ground as being one of the first
good effect Dragons. Its ability to attack twice if the field isn't
cleared has definatly helped some duelists out, and its second ability to negate
all traps that specifically designate it (Magic Cylinder, Ring of Destruction,
etc.) is pretty cool. Only downside is you really shouldn't play this guy
outside of Dragon decks as a Dragon must be sacraficed to Special Summon this
monster from the graveyard.
1. Blue Eyes White Dragon. I
guarentee many people won't agree with me on this. What that 2 tribute
effect-less Dragon? Yes that Dragon. Despite being perhaps too outnumbered
by better two tribute monsters, this card is now becoming slowly easier to
play. With the assistence of Paladin of White Dragon, and Kaiser Sea
Horse, this card might start reappearing in some Dragon or Light based
decks. Besides you can't tell me you never wanted to be like Kaiba using
his Blue Eyes...
