'''DARK''' ({{Ruby|闇|やみ}} ''Yami'' "Darkness") is an [[Attribute]] in ''Yu-Gi-Oh!''. ==Overview==DARK monsters are commonly thematically associated with conceptual themes of wickedness, mysteriousness, and magic. The Monster [[Type]]s typically associated with DARK are [[Fiend]], [[Zombie]], and [[Spellcaster]].
Because they are so widespread, DARK monsters have a very wide range of effects, and overlap with almost all other Attributes (for example, there are enough burn-damage DARK monsters to rival [[FIRE]] monsters). However, the one thing that DARK monsters specialize in more than any other Attribute are card effects relating to the [[Graveyard]], often by using it as a resource in some way (though the predominately-DARK "[[Gravekeeper's]]" Archetype notably ''prevents'' the use of the Graveyard as a resource). Most other DARK monsters like "[[Blackwing]]" monsters have swarming abilities that allow you to summon monsters to your field to overwhelm your opponent by numbers in battle.
In some card effects (e.g. "[[Wee Witch's Apprentice]]") and in certain video games, the DARK Attribute is positioned as the opposite of the [[LIGHT]] Attribute.
