Dragons. Overrated or underplayed

[DragonUser85]

Dragons, yes they seem powerful enough to be played but some people would rather burn their dragon cards than play them,why is that? Now I know dragons aren't the best types to be used but why hate them? Doesn't anyone remember their first starter deck I bet most of you picked up Kaiba just for his high attack powered Blue-eyes white dragon and now you probably raise your nose at it. The only dragons I have seen used recently is Light and Darkness dragon (his effect isnt unbeatable) play any single spell and he'll negate it but chain book of moon to his negation of your first card and have fun then destroy him if you want to with nobleman of crossout or mystic swordsman yet another dragon who in time will be pushed off to the side as crap.

i dont know - seems like its the low & mid level dragons lacking good effects/stats that are more the reason they dont get much play as a theme... the power dragons - light & darkness, dark armed dragon, and even horus or prime material are making showings with other thing rather than theme decks.... i fro example am using van dalgyons in a dark deck at the moment... quite fun...

i personally love dragons.

(taking a step back: god, that sounds like such a fanboy statement)
based on a super polymerization ruling, i'm making a new dragon deck now.

granted, i probably won't be taking advantage of dragons' trample, stamping destruction is still a wonderful card.

fyi, your opponent's light and darkness dragon cannot negate super polymerization.

Dude, what the inferno are you talking about?? As soon as you play Book of Moon, the dragon'll just negate it as well. It isn't an optional effect, so it'll activate again just as soon as a trigger occurs. It isn't a game-winner on its own, but it is a really powerful card.

you probably already know qwert, but LaDD's negation effect can only happen once per turn. i'm mostly sure what OP meant by that was to chain to LaDD's negation with book of moon (which it can't negate) and everything is dandy and gravy. you can just run over it with any number of tools (ancient rules => bewd, shield crush, nobleman, soul exchange, torrential)

not just activate book of moon on its own.

Slight correction there 1cup. Light and Darkness Dragon's effect can only activate once during the same chain. It can activate as many times as possible per turn.

you're totally right.
i meant chain, but for some reason i put turn. brain futz.

i guess i was mashing together several of LaDD's rulings together.

like the one that says after Reverse Trap has been resolved, LaDD can only negate one thing for the rest of the turn. (a very welcome BKSS)
