'''Dinosaur''' monsters are a type of monster that primarily rely on brute strength, and sometimes their [[Card Effect]]s, to help a duelist prevail in a [[Duel]]. There are many high-level Dinosaur-[[Type]]s, so the general strategy for them is to [[Special Summon]] their high-level monsters as quickly and easily as possible using cards like "[[Hunting Instinct]]" or "[[Big Evolution Pill]]" to overpower the opponent's weaker monsters before they have a chance to defend themselves. Dinosaurs are predominantly [[EARTH]]-[[Attribute]] monsters (those that are or resemble Pterosaurs are [[WIND]], with exception of [[Jurrac Ptera]]), but the release of the [[Jurracs]] Archetype has lead to a surge of [[FIRE]] Dinosaurs.
Short of extremely powerful [[Nomi]] monsters, high-level [[Fusion Monsters]], or [[Dragon]]s, Dinosaurs are second to none in terms of overwhelming brute force. They possess the only monster that completely breaks the [[Rule of 3000 ATK and DEF|rule of 3300 3000 ATK]], "[[Super Conductor Tyranno]]", their [[Field Spell Card]] [[Jurassic World]] grants a higher ATK and DEF bonus than any other for specific monster types, and they have recently been issued [[Fossil Dig]] a Spell Card that can add any Level 6 or lower Dinosaur from the Deck to the [[Hand]]. Unlike other monster types which run the risk of being useless in the hand if the deck is too top-heavy with high-level monsters, Dinosaurs have numerous options of getting around tribute requirements for summoning high-level monsters from their hand.
A lot of Dinosaur-[[Type]] monsters have high [[ATK]] like "[[Frostosaurus]]", "[[Super Conductor Tyranno]]", "[[Black Tyranno]]", "[[Super-Ancient Dinobeast]]", "[[Dark Driceratops]]", "[[Ultimate Tyranno]]", the TCG/OCG [[Synchro Monsters|Synchro Monster]] - "[[Jurrac Giganoto]], [[Jurrac Velphito]] and [[Jurrac Meteor]]". One unique Dinosaur, [[Tyranno Infinity]], gains a massive 1000 ATK boost for each removed from play Dinosaur, making Dinosaurs viable even against the debilitating effects of an opponent using [[Macro Cosmos]] and related cards. [[Tyranno Infinity]] also works extremely well with [[Survival Instinct]], another support card.
