Steps
- Find a bunch of dragon cards. If you have enough cards of one theme, like Blue-Eyes or Hieratic, you can opt for building a deck based around that archetype instead.
- Add Dragon support cards. Good ones are Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, Dragon Shrine, Divine Dragon Apocralyph, Silver's Cry, Keeper of the Shrine, Queen Dragun Djinn, Dragon Ravine, Masked Dragon, and Dragon's Mirror.
- Think of what other cards you can use. For example, if you have a lot of Level 8 monsters, you can use Trade-In. If you have a bunch of LIGHT types, you can run Honest. A lot of dragon support works for normal types, so you may actually benefit from having a few normal monsters in your deck.
- Add staples. Staples are cards that fit in the majority of decks. Get cards like Twin Twisters/MST, Raigeki, Solemn Warning, Solemn Strike, Call of the Haunted, Dark Hole, and Bottomless Trap Hole.
- Build an Extra Deck. Add generic Xyz monsters you can summon. Many Dragon-Types are level 8 and Rank 8 Xyz monsters are very good, so consider building your deck around them. Ranks 7 and 4 are also good. Several Xyz monsters that support dragons are Queen Dragun Djinn, Hieratic Dragon King of Atum, Galaxy-Eyes Dark Matter Dragon, and Dragluon. If you have Tuners, throw in some synchros you can make. There are also good dragon fusions, like Five-Headed Dragon. If you want to use fusions, the best fusion spell card available to you is Dragon's Mirror.
- You can also buy your own dragon structure deck. There are many of them such as 'Saga of the Blue Eyes White Dragon' or 'Dragons Collide'. Your structure deck will be better if you buy three copies of the same one and add all the good cards.
Tips
- Hieratics are extremely powerful with a lot of OTK potential. Look them up!
- Another powerful deck type to use is Chaos Dragons.
- Always have 5 or more lvl 4 or lower monsters. Good ones are Masked Dragon and Alexandrite Dragon. If you play many high-level dragons, the easiest way to summon them is reviving them from the graveyard.
- Blue-Eyes is currently a very powerful deck which can put multiple giant dragons on the field every turn. Red-Eyes are also worth looking into. They focus more on burn damage and Xyz summoning.
- If you are using Dragon Master Knight, do not use Black luster. Use fusion substitutes like King of the Swamp.
- Try Dragons and Warriors for some more diversity also for synchronizing your deck.
Warnings
- Don't use more than 40 cards in your deck.
