{{InfoboxQuote|The tagline of ''[[Structure Deck R: Dragunity Drive]]'' in promotional material|A freezing world, the end looming over it.<br /Yu>Now once again, the dragon knights of gales take flight!!}}"'''Dragunity'''" (ドラグニティ ''Doraguniti'') is an [[archetype]] of [[WIND]] [[Dragon]] and [[Winged Beast]] monsters released in the [[Duel Terminal]] revolving around equipping Level 3 or lower Dragon Tuner monsters and [[Synchro Summon]]ing powerful monsters.==Lore=={{Main|Duel Terminal Master Guide card storylines|The Valuable Book EX card storylines#No. 10: Duel Terminal World Addendum: The Sealing of the Three Dragons}}== Design ===== Appearance ===The Dragon "Dragunity" all have armor which either covers most of their body ("[[Dragunity Phalanx]]"), or have a piece of armor that resembles, and is named after, a weapon (i.e. "[[Dragunity Darkspear]]"), or wielding the weapons themselves (i.e. "[[Dragunity Arma Leyvaten]]"). === Etymology ==="Dragunity" is a portmanteau of "dragon" and "unity", referring to the underlying concept of uniting the humanoid warriors to the dragonic weapons to form powerful knights. The artworks of the "Dragunity Knight" monsters generally showcase a "Dragunity" Winged Beast monster riding a mature/transformed version of a Dragon Tuner monster, which is implied by their Levels, that are a sum of the Levels of the corresponding pair of "Dragunities".Most of the Dragon Main Deck "Dragunity" Monsters are named after general types of [[wikipedia:pole weapon|pole weapon]]s, except "[[Dragunity Arma Gram]]", or in case of "[[Dragunity Phalanx]]" a formation performed with spears. Whereas the Synchro Monsters except for "[[Dragunity Knight - Gormfaobhar]]" are named after specific spears in European and Indian mythology. By contrast, the Winged Beast "Dragunity" monsters are all named after military or diplomatic ranks/titles or general terms of administration all used by the roman empire. In consequence, monsters with higher Levels and stats have a corresponding higher rank or title in their names (eg. "[[Dragunity Primus Pilus]]" and "[[Dragunity Tribus]]").The theme's first Link Monster, "[[Dragunity Knight - Romulus]]", is named after the founder and first king of Rome, whose [[wikipedia:Remus|twin brother]] inspired "[[Dragunity Remus]]". {| class="wikitable"!

"Dragunity Phalanx" and "Dragunity Couse" are key cards to enable this strategy, thanks to their inherent ability to Special Summon themselves from the Spell & Trap Zones after being equipped through the effect of a Winged Beast "Dragunity" monster. The most basic combo consists of equipping them to "Dragunity Dux" or "Dragunity Senatus" in order to rapidly climb to the high-level Synchro Monster. "Dragunity Knight - Barcha" is used the most, being able to equip as many "Dragunity" monsters from the Graveyard as possible to enable multiple Synchro Summons and even Link Summons with multiple copies of Phalanx or Couse. If going second, a player can use "Dragunity Whirlwind", instantly granting a Synchro Summon without having to use a normal summon for "Dux" or "Senatus", while also setting up the Graveyard for later interactions with the tuner summoned by "Whirlwind".
DOMI DECK '''Dragunity''' is an [[Archetype]] released in Contrary to their current state, the [[Duel Terminal]]deck historically had a lack of boss monsters, the term relying on generic options like "Stardust Dragon"Dragunity, " comes from the words ''Red Dragon'' and ''Unity''. Their effects mainly revolve around equipping any [[level]] 3 or lower [[Dragon]]-[[Type]] monsters in your [[Graveyard]] to your [[Winged Beast]]-[[Type]] monsters in play (in the sense of the [[Dragon]]-Types transforming into weapons, Archfiend" or the [[Winged-Beast]] Dragunity monsters "uniting" with their Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon "steeds" as to grant field presence. A classic way to combine "Dragunity Knights"). Because of their heavy focus on sending monsters to the Spell & Trap Card Zones, the Dragunity archetype with some generic options is often compared to the [[Crystal Beast]] and [[Cyberdark]] archetypes. They also utilize powerful [[Dragon]]-[[Type]] [[Synchro Monsters]], although they require [[Dragon]]Summon "Dragunity Knight -[[Type]] [[Tuner Monsters]] as well as [[Winged Beast]]-[[Type]] non-Tuners. All of the '''Dragunity''' monsters that have been released so far are [[WIND]] monstersGae Dearg", so "[[Flying Kamakiri 1]]" to use its effect to search and then discard "[[Gozen Match]]Mist Valley Baby Roc" can be useful along with some other WIND supports; and because many , which special summon itself directly after being discarded, enabling the Synchro Summon of them are Winged Beastsa relatively generic level 8 monster like the aforementioned ones. However, with the Deck can run "[[Icarus Attack]]". The [[Dragon]]-Type monsters in this [[Archetype]] so far all have armor which either covers most release of their body ("[[Dragunity Phalanx]]Knight - Ascalon"), or they have a piece of armor that resembles, and is named after, a weapon (i.e. "[[Dragunity Darkspear]]Knight - Areadbhair"). By contrast, the [[Winged Beast]]-[[Type]] deck gained their own boss cards with abilities that banish opponents' monsters seem to be named after historical warriors (Ex. - "[[Dragunity Legionnaire]]" is named after the common solider in the Roman army). Their archetype symbol is the green emerald for the [[Dragons]], effective monster negation, and for the [[Winged Beasts]] is the green emerald surrounded by a gold outline of wingsalso residual effects when they're destroyed.
The "Dragunity Knight - Romulus" and "Dragunity Remus" act as the searchers for the archetype's spell and traps, most importantly "Dragon Ravine", the main win condition consistency engine of the deck. Besides searching for resources, each one also has a second effect that provides ways for more Synchro Summons. The "Dragunity" appears to be a combination Tuners also emphasize the use of "Cards of [[Swarm]]ing and Consonance" as an [[Instant Synchro Deck]]essential part of the deck, summoning [[Synchro Monsters]] or using providing draw power while simultaneously setting up the [[Effect]]s Graveyard for combo plays. Lastly, "Tempest, Dragon Ruler of their non-Synchro Monsters Storms" is highly recommended to clear be teched into the [[Field]]deck to search a Dragon and dump a WIND monster, then attacking. Most preferably one of the Dragunity cards have been released in [[Structure Deck 19: Dragunity Drive]] in deck's combo tuners. With the OCG plentiful search and draw engines, the TCG"Dragunity" archetype has a very reliable and stable game plan.
==Playing style==The main purpose of Dragunity decks is Due to have versatile the synergy with Dragon, Winged Beast, and easy [[Synchro Summon]]s. WIND monsters in general, the Deck can also be combined with splashable cards like "[[Dragunity Phalanx]]" is the key card here Blackwing - it's a level 2 tuner that Special Summons when it is equipped to a monster. Thanks to Zephyros the effects of Elite"[[Dragunity Dux]], " and "[[Dragunity Legionnaire]]Garuda the Wind Spirit", you can easily summon level 5 or 6 Synchro Monsters - however, if you decide to Synchro Summon "[[Dragunity Knight Red- Vajrayana]]" with "DuxEyes Darkness Metal Dragon" and "PhalanxHieratic Seal of the Heavenly Spheres", you can use . They are also one of the deck's most powerful combos. "Vajrayana" is a level 6 monster few archetypes that can also equip a Level 3 or lower [[Dragon]]-[[Type]] benefit from "DragunityWindwitch" support, as they are unaffected by the latter's WIND monster from the Graveyardrestriction. Because the (All "Once per turnDragunity" effect monsters are already WIND monsters). These series of "Phalanx" resets when it is sent cards are highly complementary to the graveyard, if you equip Phalanx, it can Special Summon, and you can [[Synchro Summon]] deck as “Windwitch - Ice Bell” acts as essentially a level 8 [[Synchro Monster]] one- effectively turning one card in your hand into gateway to "Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon", a level 8 powerful monster from your [[Extra Deck]]the "Dragunity" archetype already utilizes.
This combo only requires "Dux" in the hand and "Phalanx" in the Graveyard, and it is incredibly simple to set up with the help of "[[Dragon Ravine]]". With it, once per turn, you can discard a card to either add a The high-level "Dragunity" monster from your Deck to your hand or send any Dragon monsters function very differently from your Deck to the Graveyard - essentially turning any card in your hand into either a "Dragunity" version of "[[Reinforcement of the Army]]" or "[[Foolish Burial]]", which makes combos easy. However, the "Dragunity" other main deck monsters have many alternate strategies. Even without Synchro Monsters, the archetype can hold its own in battle: "[[Dragunity Legionnaire]]Arma Mystletainn" takes out tough monsters with its effect - you can send an equipped Dragon to the graveyard to destroy one of your opponent's face-up monsters. This is especially useful with "[[Dragunity Aklys]]"a combo extender, as when it is equipped providing material that facilitates further Synchro Summons and sent to the Graveyardeven Xyz Summons, one card on the field is destroyed. Effectively, you can summon Legionnaire, equip "Aklys" from the Graveyard, and send it to the Graveyard to destroy one your opponent's face-up monster and another one of his/her cards, in a devastating one-two punch that costs you nothing. This also works with the second effect of "[[Dragunity Knight - Vajrayana]]Luin", which can send a card equipped to itself to also unlocks the graveyard to double its own ATK valueuse of "Ultimaya Tzolkin". If you equip and then send "AklysRomulus" to or another Link monster is in the Graveyard, you will end up with a 3800 ATK monster that turn while destroying one of your opponent's cardsGY, allowing for big finishes. "[[Dragunity Arma Leyvaten]]Mystletainn", can easily facilitate the new ace summon and omni-negate effect of "DragunityBorreload Savage Dragon" monster, comes in [[Structure Deck: Dragunity Legion]]. This monster can be Special Summoned with ease from your hand or Graveyard by removing from play 1 face-up monster you control equipped using itself with a most likely "DragunityPhalanx" card. In addition, when this card is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, you can select 1 Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard other than "Dragunity Arma LeyvatenGram"is an extra weapon that is typically easy to summon after your initial combo plays, and equip it to it as an Equip Cardcan also aid link plays. If and when you equip Both Armas have synergy with "Phalanx" to "LeyvatenDragunity Glow", (whose graveyard effect allows you can Special Summon it to your field and using "Phalanx" and "Leyvaten" to [[Synchro Summon]] "[[Trident Dragion]]" finishing off your opponent. To make sure all special summon a monster in the "Leyvatens" are sent S/T zone equipped to your Graveyard swiftly and efficiently, a "[[Future Fusion]]Dragunity" and "[[Dragon Ravine]]" are recommended)====Recommended cards=========Monsters====={{Decklist|Dragunity

==Possible Support Cards= Weaknesses === * Due to the reliance on "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]" : Another Level 8 monster for Synchro Summoning "[[Trident Dragion]]". It can also protect your Dux"[[Dragon Ravine]]" from any destruction effects. * "[[Mist Valley Falcon]]" : A decent attacker (2000 ATK), with abilities to return cards to reuse it. Perfect for reusing "[[Dragunity Legionnaire]]". * "[[Icarus Attack]]Senatus" : By Tributing a [[Winged-Beast]] Dragunity monster (preferably Legionnaire whose effects already used out), you can easily destroy 2 cards. Good as counter-strategies. * "[[Cards of Consonance]]": This card is very good in a Dragunity deck. You need to send Dragon-type and the Tuner monsters to be in the graveyard so they can be equipped with Dux and LegionnaireGraveyard, and Dragunities have more valid targets than any other deck - hand traps like "[[Dragunity Aklys|AklysEffect Veiler]]", "[[Dragunity Brandistock|BrandistockGhost Ogre & Snow Rabbit]]", "[[Dragunity Corsesca|CorsescaCalled by the Grave]]", "[[Dragunity Darkspear|Darkspear]]", and "[[Dragunity Phalanx|Phalanx]]"D.D* "[[Pot of AvariceCrow]]": This deck can send monsters to the Graveyard very quickly thanks to its Synchro Summons, discards from "Cards of Consonance" and "Dragon Ravine", and plain destruction by battle. "Pot of Avarice" rewards the filling of the graveyard with two new cards, as well as a chance to get another use out of used "Duxes"removal effects that trigger upon its Summon, "Darkspears" and/or "Legionnaires". * such as cards like "[[Terraforming]]": This card is the easiest way to search out "[[Dragon RavineBottomless Trap Hole]]", so running two or three is recommended. This card can also serves as discard fodder for "[[Dragon Ravine]]"'s effect, so it will never be dead draweffective ways to disrupt the strategy* "[[Future Fusion]]": This card can fill The first weakness was addressed with the graveyard with 5 [[Dragon]]-Type Dragunity [[tuner]] monsters (most notably release of "[[Dragunity Phalanx]]Senatus") and summon "[[Five-Headed Dragon]]" two turns later. * Divine Lance"[[Five-Headed Dragon]]: Combine with , that can equip "[[Future Fusion]]Dragunity" to fill the grave and have a massive monster. It may not stay on Tuners directly from the field for a long time, but it will give you lots of access to quick Dragunity combosDeck.
==Weakness==Also, as with any Graveyard-reliant Deck, the strategy is vulnerable to effects like that of "[[Dimension Shifter]]", "[[Different Dimension Ground]]" or "[[Macro Cosmos]]", all of which can easily paralyze the Deck.
Dragunities, despite their amazing speed and enormous consistency, still have some crucial weakness. The most common is [[Anti-Meta]] and [[Macro]] decks (which sequence of Summons also bring trouble makes them vulnerable to another today competitive decks such as [[X-Saber]]s, [[Legendary Six Samurai]] and many more). Also, their heavy reliance on Field Spell "[[Dragon Ravine]]" makes them very weak against opponent who enjoys using Spell/Trap destruction effectsNibiru, such as "[[Mystical Space Typhoonthe Primal Being]]". However, if the goal of the turn is to Summon "[[Dust Tornado]]Areadbhair", starting with "[[Twister]]Vajrayana/Barcha", etc, and without or "[[Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon Ravine]]", this deck can't survive too long (much like [[Gravekeeper's]] with their the "[[Necrovalley]]"). Those destruction cards can also bring trouble for "[[Dragunity Phalanx]]Windwitch"engine, because they can its Synchro Summon will be chained to "Phalanx's" effect and destroy it before it can be Special Summoned, ruining most the fifth Summon of this deck's combo play (except [[Dragunity Arma Leyvaten|Leyvaten Rider]] build). Moreover, "[[Trap Hole]]", "[[Bottomless Trap Hole]]", "[[Royal Oppression]]" and "[[Solemn Warning]]" can also stop "[[Dragunity Dux]]", "[[Dragunity Legionnaire]]", "[[Dragunity Knight - Vajrayana]]", and "[[Dragunity Arma Mystletainn]]" from hitting the fieldturn, thus suspending which makes it a good way to protect the deck's actions. "[[Effect Veiler]]" can also be annoying, since it can negate "Dux's" and "Legionnaire's" effectDeck against this specific threat.
== Trivia ==* Their archetype symbol is the green emerald for the Dragon monsters, and for the Winged Beast monsters is the green emerald surrounded by a gold outline of wings.* As with the "[[Blackwing]]" archetype, there is a heavy distinction between the Tuner monsters and the non-Tuner monsters in terms of appearance. Similar to "Blackwings", the non-Tuner monsters are all humanoids in bird outfits with mechanical-like wings, while the Tuner monsters are composed of small, armored dragons (whereas the "Blackwing" Tuner monsters are all small birds).* Their "rider and mount" style, as depicted in their "Dragunity Knight" forms, are also adopted by later archetypes, such as "[[Gusto]]" and "[[Ritual Beast]]" (albeit with different types and mechanics).{{Archseries navbox}}{{ArchetypeNavboxArchseries navbox (anime)}}[[Category:Archetypes]]{{Archseries navbox (Duel Links)}}{{Duel Terminal}}[[Category:Deck TypeTCG and OCG archetypes]]
