Boasting the enormous Attack of 2700 and three powerful effects to assist him, occupying a spot to this list is no surprise. When Grapha is in your hand he can be used as discard fodder while it destroys a card with his first effect. This makes him compatible with the rest of the Dark World Arsenal, making him a target for Dark World Dealings, The Gates of Dark World, Dark Smog, Dragged Down into the Grave etc.

| Number 8: Grapha, Dragon Lord of the Dark World |
But unlike the rest of Dark World Monsters, when he has use his first effect he is the most useful. By returning a Dark World Monster from the field to the hand you can Special Summon him to the field. A powerful beater with 2700 Attack (3000 if The Gates from Dark World is active). So essentially he is a 2700 ATK that gives you a plus 1 every time you bring him forth. He combos incredibly well with Tour Guide which can be used to summon Leviair, which can be used to Special Summon a banished by Gates Dark World, say Broww. Then you return Broww to hand and bring Grapha forth. Plus 2, like that.
Even though Dark Worlds didn't exactly keeped up with the expectations (they were hyped so much, that one would have thought they were a Tier 0 Deck), they are a very decent Deck with consistent Tops in the last YCS's and Grapha is the card that holds the Deck together. Ergo Grapha is the 8th Card in the Countdown of the best Cards of 2011.
