While it is possible through convoluted Summoning to set this up conventionally (especially difficult since each 'Guardragon' can only be Special Summoned once per turn, and prevents the Special Summoning of non-Dragons), the easiest method to start off is to use ' Crusadia Spatha' to manoeuvre a 'Guardragon' Summoned to its Zone aside so it points to it, immediately enabling its effect. The latter obviously has incredible potential, but the Monster Summoned off its effect is not properly Summoned. ' Pisty' Special Summons from the GY or banished, ' Elpy' from the Main Deck or hand, and ' Agarpain' can Special Summon any Extra Deck Dragon monster. On the other side of the strategy, the Extra Deck Guardragons are Link-1 and -2 monsters that share an effect of hard- once per turn Special Summoning any Dragon to a Monster Zone 2 or more Link Monsters point to. ' Andrake' can then be bought in by ' Elpy' to deliver the fatal blow. The overall gameplan is thus to use the Normal Monsters to put fast and direct offensive pressure on an opponent, before using the Extra Deck as a follow-up with the help of the Guardragons. It can also Summon itself when a Normal Monster is sent to the GY, this time from the GY and at the cost of banishing itself. ' Garmides' also has a handtrap effect to temporarily increase the ATK/DEF of a Dragon by 500. It can also add itself to the hand from the GY to reuse its first effect by sending a Dragon from the hand to the GY. ' Garmides' serves as a 1600 ATK back-up monster, able to Special Summon itself from the hand when a Normal Monster is sent to the GY, also useful if making Extra Deck Summons. ' Justicia' is a Dragon Normal Tuner monster, but due its 0 ATK, it is suitable only as a wall and to enable Synchro Summons to access better monsters. The beatdown side of the 'Guardragon' strategy is focussed around using powerful Normal Monsters like ' Alexandrite Dragon' to overwhelm the opponent with raw ATK, using the 'Guardragons' for support and backup.

' Andrake' serves as a Main Deck boss monster that cannot be Normal Summoned/ Set, can destroy a card when Summoned by ' Pisty', and doubles his ATK and DEF until the end of the opponent's turn when Summoned by ' Elpy', however, since all support for this series is indirect, he is optional. The Main Deck 'Guardragons' ' Justicia', ' Garmides' and ' Prominesis' are focused on supporting straightforward beatdown and Normal and Dragon monsters, while the Extra Deck monsters ' Elpy', ' Pisty' and ' Agarpain' are focussed around supplying Dragon monsters to the field and swarming with extremely powerful monsters.

The Guardragon monsters can be roughly divided into two groups of monsters with differing, though compatible, playstyles. These rules only apply to the 'Guardragons' released in Savage Strike. All of the 'Guardragons'' names are based on their origins in Greek. Together, these two collectively make up the seven heavenly virtues. The Main Deck monsters are named after the four classic cardinal virtues derived in Classical Greece by Plato, while the Link Monsters' names are derived from the theological virtues of Christianity. However since ' Mekk-Knight Blue Sky's' was with ' Crusadia Maximus', it couldn't take on a complete form. įollowing the defeat of ' Knightmare Corruptor Iblee' the ' Mekk-Knight' gems residing in the ' Knightmares' broke off and resided within each of the ' World Legacys'. By its power, all of the World Legacies were reborn as 'Guardragons', and the battle to determine the fate of the world at last began to head to its conclusion. The activation of the “World Legacy – World Wand” caused the final World Legacy, the 'World Ark', to start up.
