The Tachikaze (たちかぜ Tachi Kaze) are a clan from the Dragon Empire nation. They are made mostly up of mechanical dinosaurs called Dinodragons. They focus on overpowering the opponent with incredibly high attack scores, retiring Rear Guards as costs for effects and benefiting from doing so, and Units that search the deck for more Tachikaze Units when that Unit is put into the Drop Zone.

This clan has one unique race so far.

Trivia

• Tachikaze could have several different meanings in Japanese depending on the kanji of tachi
  • 館　Means mansion or small castle
  • 太刀 Is a long sword
  • 裁ち And this "tachi" is the most likely one, meaning a cut or cutting
  • Given that tachi kaze would mean mansion wind (not likely), wind of the long sword (maybe), or cutting wind (which makes the most sense).
    • Source for kanji information http://jisho.org/

• Still the Tachikaze clan is more likely to be based off the tachikaze class destroyer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachikaze-class_destroyer
  • This is evidenced on tachikaze, the clan, being based off of modern military tech being mounted ancient animals

• Tachikaze sacrificing their own rear-guards may be just like dinosaurs. Killing and eating others for power.
