To protect your monsters from spell and trap effects, cards like Stamping Destruction and A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon (Which you can also combo with Montage Dragon for monsters to Discard) can help make sure that nasty traps and spells like Shrink and Dimensional Prison won't get in your way. Mid-Level monsters often used in this build may include Kaiser Glider and Chthonian Emperor Dragon to rid the field of stubborn monsters and attack for huge damage. Another way of playing high-level Dragons without tributing is to use Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon, which special summons virtually any kind of Dragon monster you want to dish out against the opponent. Monsters like Troop Dragon, Masked Dragon, Twin-Headed Behemoth, and Totem Dragon can be used to tribute summon the more powerful monsters. Even though Gray Wing is relatively weak in ATK points, it can deal up to 2600 damage to the opponent if there are no monsters in its way.

High level monsters can be anything mentioned in the other decks, but smaller monsters may include Luster Dragon, Spear Dragon, and Blizzard Dragon. The deck revolves around playing abnormally powerful Dragon-Type monsters and brutally beating down the opponent's life points.

This type of deck is pretty old fashioned, but it has more variations than any of the other three decks. This structure deck can also be bought to get key cards for any kind of Dragon Deck. The best way to make this deck truly effective is to buy multiple structure decks and combine the more important cards into one deck. You can also use Van'Dalgyon the Dark Dragon Lord with Divine Wrath to special summon Dragons in the Graveyard.

An awesome way to special summon Dragons from the grave is to use Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon since it gives you a free special summon of any dragon chilling in your hand or graveyard, no matter how high of a level it is. Card of Safe Return (are now on the limited and forbidden list) is another great addition to this deck since it lets you draw a card each time you summon a dragon-like this. Decoy Dragon works exceptionally well with this deck, being able to make a powerful combo with Foolish Burial. Draining Shield and Rainbow Life can be used to recover life points used for Mausoleum of the Emperor and Trade-In can be used to put powerful dragons into the graveyard to revive while drawing two cards in the process. This deck also includes Mausoleum of the Emperor to get tribute monsters out quickly. Felgrand Dragon, Tyrant Dragon, and Darkblaze Dragon are good examples of this. This deck focuses on summoning powerful dragons to the field from the graveyard and activating their effects. The newest Dragon-type Structure Deck is Rise of the Dragon Lords. Synchro Monsters like Stardust Dragon or Red Dragon Archfiend and Tuner Monsters like Magna Drago, The White Stone of Legend, and in some cases, Debris Dragon are also great choices for Synchro Summons if you can't Fusion Summon. The same goes for Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion if you're short on Blue-Eyes White Dragon or any fusion spell cards. If you want to summon King Dragun quickly, The Dark - Hex-Sealed Fusion is a great choice if you don't have Future Fusion or Dragon's Mirror in hand. Usually, Dragon's Mirror or Future Fusion is used to accomplish these tasks. These types of decks often focus on getting fusion monsters like Five-Headed Dragon, King Dragun, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, and sometimes even Dragon Master Knight to the field. Horus and Armed Dragon cards can even be combined to make a deck that not only locks down spell and trap cards but also controls the opponent's monsters that may get in your way. Horus the Black Flame Dragon has added protection from Spell Cards and is well known for the infamous "Horus Decree" lockdown. To protect the high-level monsters from trap cards Royal Decree, Jinzo, or King Dragun are usually used.

These decks usually focus on leveling up their monsters quickly. Some dragon decks are based on the LV dragons, Armed Dragon and Horus the Black Flame Dragon.
