"Dino Rabbit", also known in the past as "Evolzar Rabbit" or "Guide Rabbit", focuses on using "[[Rescue Rabbit]]" to summon level 4 Dinosaur-Type normal monsters such as "[[Sabersaurus]]" and "[[Megalosmasher X]]" from your deck to [[Xyz Summon]] "[[Evolzar Laggia]]" and "[[Evolzar Dolkka]]" to negate spells, traps, monster summons and monster effects, respectively. Nowadays, the name-giving "[[Tour Guide From the Underworld]]" doesn't really find space in the deck anymore, since Dinosaurs have an array of options they rather like to play with.

'''Dino Rabbit''', also known as '''Evolzar Rabbit''' or '''Guide Rabbit''', focuses on using "[[Rescue Rabbit]]" to [[Special Summon]] Level 4 [[Dinosaur]] [[Normal Monster]]s such as "[[Sabersaurus]]" and "[[Kabazauls]]" from the Deck to [[Xyz Summon]] "[[Evolzar Laggia]]" and "[[Evolzar Dolkka]]" to utilize their powerful negation effects. "[[Tour Guide From the Underworld]]" supplements the play style by Xyz Summoning Rank 3 Xyz Monsters, such as "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]" to recycle banished Rabbits, "[[Number 17: Leviathan Dragon]]" for a beatstick and "[[Wind-Up Zenmaines]]" for a defensive wall.
  
The "Dino Rabbit" strategy remained mostly the same over the course of the years, but after its revival the deck celebrates its comeback more with a bang than a whimper.  
+
Due to the September 2013 TCG list, this deck was hit hard by limiting "Rescue Rabbit" and a few support cards, making this deck nearly unplayable in the TCG. However, it remained playable in the OCG, being temporarily semi-limited in September 2012 and becoming unlimited in October 2014. It was unlimited in the TCG in the October 2017 lists, but by then the strategy had fallen out of favor as the release of ''[[Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck]]'' meant that Dinosaur Decks could more easily Xyz Summon "[[Evolzar]]" monsters using the new Dinosaur support cards instead.
  
==History==
+
==Cards==
The "Dino Rabbit" deck came into existence during times when Xyz summons were still new and was powerful due to its easy access to strong field control and reasonably powerful monsters. "Rescue Rabbit" and "Tour Guide From the Underworld" were both used to summon Rank 3 or 4 Xyz monsters respectively; the Rank 4 monster are already listed above, Rank 3 monsters included "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]" to recycle banished Rabbits, "[[Number 17: Leviathan Dragon]]" for a beatstick and "[[Wind-Up Zenmaines]]" for a destructive wall. Aside from those cards, "Dino Rabbit" played a number of cards to disrupt the opponent's plays when necessary.
+
===Monsters===
 +
* [[Rescue Rabbit]] - The main card of the deck; its ability to Special Summon 2 Level 4 Dinosaur Normal Monsters instantly enables the Xyz Summon of an "Evolzar" Xyz Monster.
  
Due to the September 2013 TCG list, this deck was hit hard by limiting [[Rescue Rabbit]] and a few support cards, making this deck nearly unplayable in the TCG. It was still normally playable in the OCG though.
+
* [[Tour Guide From the Underworld]] - Another one of the main cards of the deck, primarily enabling the Xyz Summon of "Leviair the Sea Dragon" to Special Summon a banished "Rescue Rabbit" to use its effect again, or any other useful Rank 3 monster.
  
In April 2017, the ''Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck'' was released, bringing many new, interesting and powerful cards for Dinosaurs, increasing the potential of this deck by a lot. The unlimiting of "Rescue Rabbit" in the October 2017 banlist caused this deck to be playable again, but the new Link Summon mechanic still caused doubts of how viable it might be. As of the time of writing, "Dino Rabbit" doesn't really exist on a competitive level anymore, but it is a solid [[Stun]]/[[Beatdown]] deck.
+
* [[Sangan]] - Can easily search Rescue Rabbit or techs like Maxx "C" or Effect Veiler for this deck. Can also be searched itself via Tour Guide. This card is banned in the March 2013 lists for both the TCG and OCG.
  
==Playing style==
+
* [[Night Assailant]] - Another potential target for "Tour Guide" with a helpful destruction effect.
  
"Dino Rabbit" uses the eponymous "Rescue Rabbit" to fetch either "Sabersaurus" or the newer addition "[[Megalosmasher X]]". They can both be used to run into things, but this will rarely be the case, since you normally overlap them into an Xyz monster. The prime candidate for this is "Evolzar Laggia", who basically gives you one "[[Solemn Judgment]]". "Evolzar Dolkka" is less varied, but a helpful counter against certain matchups. Other options include "[[Gagaga Cowboy]]" for the final slither of health or "[[Castel, the Skyblaster Musketeer]]", which can deal with certain monsters that could otherwise not be handled by the deck.
+
* [[Crane Crane]] - Can Special Summon a Level 3 monster from the [[Graveyard]] to use for an Xyz Summon.
  
The new boss monster in form of "[[Ultimate Conductor Tyranno]]" is easily one of the best things that happened to this deck over the last few years. Firstly, it is amazingly easy to summon, with only two monsters needed in the GY to summon this 3500 ATK beatstick. And it doesn't stop there: With the effect to flip the entire monster lineup of your opponent face-down, reactionary Link, Synchro or Fusion Summons are stopped immediately while turning any effects off that the monsters have. "Ultimate Conductor Tyranno" can also attack all monster of the opponent and can even decide to can rid of them in face-down position via its effect and deal a flat 1000 damage for every monster that has died that way. Plus, it doesn't destroy, it sends to the GY, meaning that any effect that triggers upon being destroyed is null and void.
+
* [[Sabersaurus]] - The main Dinosaur Normal Monster of the Deck to be Summoned by Rescue Rabbit. Can also be used as a beatstick when needed.
  
In addition to all of this, "Ultimate Conductor Tyranno" can even be used for further setup. Its effect needs you to destroy a monster on the field or, and this is very important, in hand. This means that any "[[Petiteranodon]]" or "[[Babycerasaurus]]" will search for Dinosaurs and summon them, is can be used to put "[[Miscellaneousaurus]]" into the GY if you want to go further down the monster spam route, or simply ditch a "[[Giant Rex]]" into the GY to remove it later on. Speaking of "Giant Rex": If you used it for the summon of "Ultimate Conductor Tyranno", you will obviously end up with two monsters doing the same summoning procedure.
+
* [[Kabazauls]] - The secondary Dinosaur Normal Monster. Commonly played alongside "Sabersaurus" to allow for a second use of "Rescue Rabbit".
  
The most useful card to start with if "Rescue Rabbit" isn't an option is "[[Souleating Oviraptor]]. "Oviraptor" is your main searcher, searches regardless of Summoning method and can even opt to ditch the searched card directly into the GY for further plays. Its second effect allows for further setup and by destroying monsters like "Petiteranodon" or "Babycerasaurus", you get to summon twice.  
+
* [[Jurrac Guaiba]] - Provides another way to go into "Laggia" and "Dolkka". Combos well with "[[Forbidden Lance]]" allowing it to destroy stronger monsters in battle.
  
When "[[Double Evolution Pill]]" was announced, it seemed like it was made with this specific deck in mind. With the usage of "[[Summoner Monk]]" or simply using a "Rescue Rabbit" this way instead of its own effect, powerful options like the aforementioned "Ultimate Conductor Tyranno" as well as the new "[[Overtex Qoatlus]]" can be summoned. "Qoatlus" shares the idea of destroying both cards on field and hand for its effect, which gets more mileage out of the cards that were used for the cost, and brings a handy Spell/Trap negation. Additionally, "Qoatlus" searches another "Evolution Pill" when it hits the GY due to a card effect, effectively allowing for a resummon with one more non-Dinosaur monster by using said "Double Evolution Pill" and the "Qoatlus" in GY. And again, "Giant Rex" will hit the field when used for the cost of "Double Evolution Pill", giving you two monsters for using it.
+
* [[Maxx "C"]] - Adds draw power. Counters decks focused on Special Summoning.
  
On the Spell/Trap front, "Dino Rabbit" is not that bad either. "[[Gold Sarcophagus]]", whilst slow in nowadays format, gives you instant access to a "Giant Rex" from the deck. "[[Fossil Dig]]" is one of the best search cards in the game and can search for anything but "Ultimate Conductor Tyranno" and "Overtex Qoatlus". Mass-removal options like "[[Dark Hole]]", "[[Interrupted Kaiju Slumber]]" or "[[Torrential Tribute]]" not only help to keep your opponent in check, but also fill your GY for further plays as well as triggering the little dinos effects of summoning stuff back. "[[Lost World]]", the dinosaur Field Spell, gives protection the your dinosaurs, lowers the stats of the opponents monsters to make fighting your dinos an even harder challenge and allows you to setup off your Normal monster dinosaurs.
+
* [[Effect Veiler]] - Counters decks that rely on effect monsters, such as [[Inzektor]]s and [[Wind-Up]]s.
  
Both "[[Dimensional Fissure]]" and "[[Macro Cosmos]]" can be played in "Dino Rabbit", since it doesn't cripple yourself nearly as hard as it will many opponents.
+
* [[Neo-Spacian Grand Mole]] - Can easily remove all kinds of threats such as "[[Wind-Up Zenmaines]]", "[[Stardust Dragon]]" and "[[Legendary Six Samurai - Shi En]]".
 +
 
 +
* [[Spirit Reaper]] - Stalls the opponent while you gather the pieces you need to execute combos. Can also serve as an alternate Xyz Material to Xyz Summon "Leviair", "Leviathan", or "Zenmaines".
 +
 
 +
* [[Thunder King Rai-Oh]] - Popular tech choice, due to excessive Xyz Summoning and searching effects routine in the metagame. This card was limited in the September 2013 TCG list.
 +
 
 +
===Spells===
 +
* [[Forbidden Lance]] - The main Spell of the deck; it fills out a lot of weakness the deck has, protecting the "Evolzar" monsters from Spells or Traps that "Laggia" would otherwise have to negate, or allowing "Jurrac Guaiba" to destroy stronger monsters in battle.
 +
 
 +
* [[Soul Taker]] - A monster removal Spell meant to counter Chaos Dragon and Hero Beat Decks, due to the LP gain effect causing cards such as "[[Elemental Hero - The Shining]]" and "[[Lightpulsar Dragon]]" to [[If... You Can VS When... You Can|miss the timing]].
 +
 
 +
* [[Gold Sarcophagus]] - Can search out important cards in the deck such as "[[Rescue Rabbit]]", "[[Tour Guide from the Underworld]]", "[[Crane Crane]]", or "[[Dark Hole]]". Recently it has shown less use because the card is a bit slow for the current meta, also this card is limited due to the September 2013 list.
 +
 
 +
* [[Dimensional Fissure]] - Shuts down a lot of Graveyard reliant decks, and has a minimal effect on Dino Rabbit decks since they often don't rely on the Graveyard. This card was limited in the September 2013 TCG list.
 +
 
 +
* [[Pot of Avarice]] - Recycles the Deck's Normal Monsters to use with "Rescue Rabbit" again. This card was banned in the September 2013 TCG list.
 +
 
 +
===Traps===
 +
* [[Fiendish Chain]] - An all-around popular card in the meta at the time to stop key monster effects or attacks.
 +
 
 +
* [[Bottomless Trap Hole]] - Another popular card for monster removal.
 +
 
 +
* [[Dimensional Prison]] - Also a popular monster removal tool that can bypass cards that can protect against effect destruction, such as "[[Stardust Dragon]]" and "Wind-Up Zenmaines".
 +
 
 +
* [[Macro Cosmos]] - Like "Dimensional Fissure" above, it single-handedly shuts down Graveyard reliant decks. This card was limited in the September 2013 TCG list.
 +
 
 +
* [[Starlight Road]] - Good counter against mass-destruction effects such as "[[Dark Hole]]" and "[[Heavy Storm]]", especially the latter since most Dino-Rabbit decks are running large Trap lineup for heavy control elements. This card has lost popularity when "Heavy Storm" was banned in the September 2013 TCG list.
 +
 
 +
* [[Soul Drain]] - Like "Dimensional Fissure" and "Macro Cosmos", it prevents many popular Graveyard-based effects. This card was limited in the September 2013 TCG list.

Although this deck is very powerful and controlling, it is not without its drawbacks:
+
* Cards that remove "[[Rescue Rabbit]]" from the field or negate its effects, such as "[[Compulsory Evacuation Device]]" and "[[Effect Veiler]]" will prevent it from using its effects.
* Stopping "[[Rescue Rabbit]]" or its effect will result in a harder time for the "Dino Rabbit" player getting to starting plays like "Evolzar Laggia". "[[Skill Drain]]", "[[Effect Veiler]]" or similar effects can stop "Rescue Rabbit" efficiently.
+
* Due to the prevalence of Spells and Traps in the metagame, players often Xyz Summon "Evolzar Laggia" first, which is vulnerable to monster effects. "Foolish Chain" can stop many of them, but it cannot be activated in response to an effect during the [[Damage Step]], such as that of "[[Snowman Eater]]".
* Summon negation is as helpful against "Dino Rabbit" as it is against many other decks. "[[Solemn Warning]]", "[[Solemn Judgment]]" or similar cards can stop the oppressive from taking shape.
+
* "[[Chain Disappearance]]" can be used to banish "[[Tour Guide From the Underworld]]" or "Rescue Rabbit", although this can be mitigated by "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]".
* Both "[[Gozen Match]]" and "[[There Can Be Only One]]" are options against "Dino Rabbit", since the first will halt summoning due to the varied Attributes of the Dinosaurs, while the second can halt the deck in certain situations and doesn't even trigger the destruction triggers of the Dinosaurs, since it sends to the GY.
+
* Since the "Evolzar" monsters have a maximum ATK of 2400, any Decks that can Summon a large number of recurring beatsticks with ATK of 2500 or more can also be threatening for this Deck. Popularity-wise, [[Chaos Dragon]] is the most prominent, but "[[Malefic]]" decks are harder to handle, due to "[[Malefic Cyber End Dragon]]" having 4000 ATK which even "[[Forbidden Lance]]" is incapable of handling.
* "Dino Rabbit" uses a lot of effects that Special Summon monsters; therefore, "[[Vanity's Fiend]]", "[[Vanity's Emptiness]]" or "[[Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo]]" are effective counters against the strategy.
+
* [[Skill Drain]] renders all "Evolzar" effects useless, in addition to several other monsters that a Dino Rabbit deck will typically use, such as "[[Spirit Reaper]]".
 +
* This Deck's heavy reliance on Traps can be stopped by "[[Royal Decree]]".
 +
* "[[Rivalry of Warlords]]" ensures that no "Evolzar" monsters can be Xyz Summoned at all, and can even prevent "Rescue Rabbit" from activating its effect.

This deck is considered a Classic Deck, this page is used to tell the history of a deck rather than how it is played now. This can happen either from mechanics of the game changing, changes from the "TCG" or "OCG" Forbidden/Limited List, or the deck has slowly lost it's ability to be played over time due to years of no support or neglect.

Dino Rabbit, also known as Evolzar Rabbit or Guide Rabbit, focuses on using "Rescue Rabbit" to Special Summon Level 4 Dinosaur Normal Monsters such as "Sabersaurus" and "Kabazauls" from the Deck to Xyz Summon "Evolzar Laggia" and "Evolzar Dolkka" to utilize their powerful negation effects. "Tour Guide From the Underworld" supplements the play style by Xyz Summoning Rank 3 Xyz Monsters, such as "Leviair the Sea Dragon" to recycle banished Rabbits, "Number 17: Leviathan Dragon" for a beatstick and "Wind-Up Zenmaines" for a defensive wall.

Due to the September 2013 TCG list, this deck was hit hard by limiting "Rescue Rabbit" and a few support cards, making this deck nearly unplayable in the TCG. However, it remained playable in the OCG, being temporarily semi-limited in September 2012 and becoming unlimited in October 2014. It was unlimited in the TCG in the October 2017 lists, but by then the strategy had fallen out of favor as the release of Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck meant that Dinosaur Decks could more easily Xyz Summon "Evolzar" monsters using the new Dinosaur support cards instead.
