  Anyone else find it tragically ironic that when Rex was relevant in the series Dinos weren't the most supported type of cards, yet after he's not even mentioned anymore they get crap loads of support.

  Another nail in the coffin for Serpent Night Dragon was when Rex lost it in Battle City to Espa Roba, Espa said it's only use would be as a coaster for his drinks.

  Honestly kinda shocked that Black Tyranno didn't make any sort of appearance. While Rex only used it briefly, Black Tyranno is very much a progenitor for the bright future that dino decks would have. As various "Tyranno" monsters would evolve steadily higher stats and more substantial effects until it produced the ultimate Apex Predator of any Dinosaur Deck; Ultimate Conductor Tyranno. And Black Tyranno was the one who started it all.

  I like the bizarre design of Serpent Night Dragon, but always thought that Tri-Horned Dragon would have been a better boss monster for Rex. At least it looks like a dinosaur

  Serpent Night Dragon's design is the coolest to me of the vanilla dragons of that era tbh. I wouldn't mind seeing it get modern support some day.

  Rex and Weevil are my favorite characters. I like the joke where they are Beavis and Butthead

  One thing I always found odd about Rex is that in every arc, his ace monster seemed to be a dragon (Red-eyes in Duelist Kingdom, Serpent Night Dragon in Battle City, Tyrant Dragon in Waking the Dragons) instead of a Dinosaur.

  I'm totally calling it- Serpent Night Dragon Archetype this year and it ties into the Starry Knight cards.

  Always thought it was a bummer Rex only got two proper duels and the second one he played a handful of cards. Always wanted to see him rock more Dino cards, spells and Traps. Plus kind of wish he'd gotten atleast one Boss Dino monster instead of another dragon.

  &quot;Once upon a time, Rex &amp; Weevil were among the best players in the world&quot;<br>And then the game changed from the Duelist Kingdom BS to the Battle City rules.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7E4mjeARLI8&amp;t=349">5:49</a> I still remember in the second episode when the announcer referred to Two Headed King Rex as &quot;The Strongest Card in his Deck&quot; when Rex Dueled Weavil and I thought how lame that was considering it&apos;s frankly pathetic 1600 ATTK, even back during early Yu-Gi-Oh that was sad.

  Another reason why Rex used dragons could be because fire monsters (like the flame swordsman) completely demolished all dino monsters, so having another powerful type that is immune to fire could cover for a massive weakness.
