*"During your opponent's End PhaseEach low-Level Dragon Ruler has one [[only once per turn]] effect: the player can discard them and 1 Dragon or 1 monster of their Attribute and Special Summon their corresponding high-Level Dragon Ruler with their Attribute from the Deck, if but it cannot attack this card was Special Summoned: Return it to the handturn."

*By combining the summoning effects of all the Dragon Ruler monsters, and the searching effects of "Tempest" and "When this card is banished: Add 1 [corresponding Attribute] Tidal", the series can rapidly swarm the board with Level 7 Dragon-Type monster Ruler monsters, which can then be used for Level 7 Xyz plays. The ability for Dragon Ruler monsters to Special Summon themselves from your the GY also grants the Deck to your handexcellent recovery over multiple turns.

You Externally, a Dragon Ruler focused Deck can only use 1 be supplemented with other Level 7 swarming engines, in particular the high-power "[corresponding [Kashtira]]" monsters. They can also work well with "[[Armed Dragon Ruler]]" effect per turnmonsters, who can replenish advantage when discarded by the low-Level Dragon Rulers or "Tempest", and only once that turncan also swarm with Level 7 monsters.The Deck also synergizes with Level 3 Tuners (e.g. "[[Rose Dragon]]"monsters, and or "[[Dragunity Guisarme]]" for its ability to revive "Lightning"), as they grant access to the powerful Level 10 Synchro Monster pool. In particular, "[[Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying]]" can activate its effect when a variable Dragon Ruler banishes monsters for its effect that triggers upon sending it and 1 other corresponding . Individual Dragon Ruler monsters can also be played as utility tools in Attribute monster from your hand to the Graveyardor Dragon-focused Decks.

Each ''Baby'' "Dragon Ruler" can Special Summon one Level 7 "Dragon Ruler" of the same Attribute from the Deck, though that monster cannot attack that turn. ===Recommended cards==={{Decklist|Recommended cardsHowever, the series proved to be far too synergistic and powerful; the ''[[OCG]]'' and ''[[TCG]]'' Forbidden and Limited Lists experimented throughout the months following their release, first with the [[September 2013 Lists (OCG)|''Baby'' Dragon]] [[September 2013 Lists (TCG)|Rulers Forbidden]] in the September 2013 lists, then the '[[January 2014 Lists|''Adult'' Dragon]] [[April 2014 Lists (OCG)|Rulers Limited]], and finally the series [[April 2015 Lists (OCG)|was]] [[April 2015 Lists (TCG)|eradicated]] in April 2015 with the ''Adult'' Dragon Rulers Forbidden, and the now<!--useless ''Babies'' UnlimitedThis is not an exact Decklist. Generally, each "Dragon Ruler" can be used as support to decks of their corresponding Attribute, such as: * "Blaster" in "[[Laval]]"/"[[Fire King]]"/"[[Volcanic]]"/"[[Battlin' Boxer]]"/etc;* "Redox" in "[[Karakuri]]"/"[[XPlease do not add multiples or staples.--Saber]]"/"[[Naturia]]"/etc; * "Tidal" in "[[Ice Barrier]]"/"[[Mermail]]"/"[[Atlantean]]"/etc;* "Tempest" in "[[Dragunity]]"/"[[Harpie]]"/"[[Gusto]]"/"[[Mecha Phantom Beast]]" etc.>

=== Weaknesses and counter-strategies ===Cards that can shut down or slow this deck are cards that stops the opponent from banishing, discarding, or prevent Special Summoning* The Deck's playstyle is directly countered by:** Anti-banish floodgates (e.g. Having both a "[[Mind DrainImperial Iron Wall]]" and "[[Soul Drain]]" on the field will completely shut down this Deck, but "[[A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon]]", "[[Mystical Space Typhoon]]", "[[Stamping Destruction]]", "[[Dust Tornado]]", and "[[Royal Decree]]" can eliminate this threat. While "Mind Drain" is active on the field you'll be prevented from using "Dragon Ruler" effects that banish/discard from the hand)** Anti-Special Summon floodgates (e. While "Soul Drain" is active on the field you'll be prevented from using "Dragon Ruler" effects that banish/add from activating from the Graveyard and Banished Zoneg. Cards that prevent players from Special Summoning, such as "[[Archlord Kristya]]", "[[Evilswarm Ophion]]", "[[Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo]]", "[[Crimson Blader]]" and also "[[Barrier Statue of the Abyss]] and "[[Barrier Statue of the Heavens]]" can prove problematic as this Deck relies heavily on Level 7 and higher monsters. "[[Dragon Capture Jar]]" can prevent your Dragons from attacking, "[[Summon Limit]]" can prevents Xyz Summoning Rank 7 monsters indirectly, while also hampering your Normal Summon and other Special Summons)* The Deck is heavily disrupted by anti-Graveyard floodgates (e. Also, "[[Imperial Iron Wall]]", "[[Chaos Hunter]]" or "[[Kycoo the Ghost Destroyer]]" prevents banishment attempts, effectively blocking any Dragon Ruler's Special Summon as wellg. "[[Banisher of the Radiance]]", "[[Banisher of the Light]]", "[[Dimensional Fissure]]" and "[[Macro Cosmos]]" can banish the Dragon Rulers), rendering them un-Summonable or at least, forcing cards like "[[Dragoncarnation]]" to retrieve them back. "[[Goblin of Greed]]" also prevents as it cuts off the player from using the discard-based effects of all the "Rulers" themselvesDeck's Graveyard recursion.
