"Darklord", known as "Fallen Angel" (堕（だ）天（てん）使（し） Datenshi) in the Japanese version, are a series of DARK Fairy-Type monsters used by Midori Hibiki in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga. Much of their effects are focused on sending Darklords to the Graveyard and then Summoning them. Much of this archetype have been released as V Jump Magazine Promotional Cards.

With the release of Legendary Collection 2, "Darklord" Decks have become readily accessible, with a copy of each "Darklord" previously only available as a YCS prize available in each.

Midori Hibiki with "Edeh Arae", "Superbia" and "Asmodeus".

"Darklord" monsters have a few things in common: in addition to being DARK Fairy-Type monsters, they all have high Levels (ranging from 5 to 10) and all of them have high ATK to match. Also, some of them, such as "Darklord Superbia", can swarm the field.

It's recommended to two or three copies of "Celestial Transformation" due to the fact that one can Summon and swarm the field with high Level Fairy-Type monsters this way.

A "Darklord" Deck focuses on sending DARK Fairy-Type monsters to the Graveyard then reviving them, however bringing back a monster especially a "Darklord" requires a more permanent solution rather than relying on one time use cards such as "Monster Reborn", "Call of the Haunted", "Ribbon of Rebirth", etc. It is recommended to run three copies of "Athena" or two copies of "The Dark Creator"; however the downside of using the effect of "The Dark Creator" is that a clear field is needed. One can send one "The Dark Creator" to the Graveyard, then summon "Phantom of Chaos" to copy its effect, though this is a solution that cannot be used for more than one turn. Athena is favored over "The Dark Creator" for this reason. "Athena" also works well with "Darklord Zerato", whose effect would cause it to destroy itself at the end of turn. Using the effect of "Athena" you can send "Zerato" to the Graveyard and then revive it, thus resetting "Zerato" and preventing it from being destroyed.
