Cyber Dragon (archetype)

"Cyber Dragons" are group of LIGHT Machine-Type monsters used by Zane Truesdale in the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime and manga. In the manga, many Cyber Dragons are based on constellations.

Playing Style
A deck that features this archetype usually uses the "Cyber Dragon" cards: Cyber Dragon, Cyber Barrier Dragon, Cyber Laser Dragon, Proto-Cyber Dragon, Cyber End Dragon, Cyber Twin Dragon, Cyber Dragon Zwei, Chimeratech Fortress Dragon,Cyber Eltanin, and Chimeratech Overdragon.

The general strategy for these cards is to summon the stronger Cyber Dragon Fusion Monsters. When building a deck around these cards use strong Machine type monster cards to help keep the field clear and to unleash the devastating powers of the "Chimeratech" cards. Union monsters like Heavy Mech Support Platform can help with supporting monsters already on the field, and The Light - Hex-Sealed Fusion can be used to easily summon the "Cyber End" and "Cyber Twin" Dragons. Honest is ideal to support the Light-attribute monsters. Perfect Machine King can gain a decent amount of ATK points while providing more Fusion Material for the Chimeratech Dragons. Limiter Removal can be used in place of an Honest, as it affects all Machines, though with a fatal drawback for your monsters. DNA Surgery and Super Polymerization are also good cards to include, since it allows you to use your opponents monsters for Chimeratech Fortress Dragon or Chimeratech Overdragon, as well as clearing your opponents field for an easy OTK.

There is also a possible Chimeratech OTK. It requires "Chimeratech Overdragon", "Future Fusion" and "Overload Fusion" often resulting in a "Chimeratech Overdragon" with over 8000 ATK. "Future Fusion" is used to select "Chimeratech Overdragon" and sending a lot of Machine-Type monsters from the Deck to the Graveyard. "Overload Fusion" is then used to remove from play all Machine-Type monsters from the Graveyard to Summon "Chimeratech Overdragon".
