Brief introduction

Fire King is a card clan revolving around Winged Beast and fire-type Beast-Warrior monsters. The deck has a unique gameplay with the ability to self-destruct Fire Kings to achieve the requirement to be able to activate their effects from the grave in standby phases.

The cards in the Fire King clan have interconnected effects that make your deck very convenient for combos. Key monsters have the ability to prevent opponents from comboing and have wide-area destructive effects.

However, for Fire Kings to activate the effect, it takes up to 1 turn and some cannot actively activate the effect. Furthermore, this is a deck that depends a lot on the grave, so the opponent can take advantage of this to weaken your Fire Kings.

Core

Fire King Avatar Arvata (x3)

(first)

When a monster effect is activated while this monster is on the field (Quick Effect): You can negate the activation , and if you do, destroy 1 other FIRE monster in your hand or field.

(2)

If this card is destroyed and sent to the GY: You can target 1 FIRE Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast monster in your GY , except "Fire King Avatar Arvata"; Special Summon it , but it has its effects negated, also it is destroyed during the End Phase.

You can only use each effect of "Fire King Avatar Arvata" once per turn.

Arvata has an effect that can negate the activation of a monster's effect. In return, the disadvantage you suffer is that you must destroy a fire-type monster in your hand or on the field.

Fire King High Avatar Garunix (x2)

(first)

During the next Standby Phase after this card was destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard: Special Summon this card from the Graveyard .

(2)

When you do: Destroy all other monsters on the field .

(3)

When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: You can Special Summon 1 "Fire King" monster from your Deck , except "Fire King High Avatar Garunix".

When destroyed by battle: Summon 1 Fire King from your Deck.

When destroyed by effect: in the next standby phase, High Garunix will be summoned back to the field. This turns the monster destruction effects of Fire Kings, or cards with other destruction effects, from being disadvantageous into beneficial effects for the player. Furthermore, when summoned this way, all remaining monsters on the field are destroyed.

Fire King Island (x3)

(1)

If this face-up card in the Field Zone is sent to the Graveyard or banished: Destroy all monsters you control.

(2)

You can only use 1 of the following effects of "Fire King Island" per turn, and only once that turn.

● During your Main Phase: You can destroy 1 monster in your hand or you control, and if you do, add 1 "Fire King" monster from your Deck to your hand.

● If you control no monsters: You can Special Summon 1 FIRE Winged Beast-Type monster from your hand.

Onslaught of the Fire Kings (x2)

(first)

If your opponent controls a monster and you control no monsters: Special Summon 1 FIRE Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast monster from your Deck . Its effects are negated, also it is destroyed during the End Phase .

You can only activate 1 "Onslaught of the Fire Kings" per turn.

Onslaught will be a card that will help you from turn 2 onwards. It allows you to call any fire-type Beast, Beast-Warrior or Winged Beast monster from your deck, not just the Fire King, however the summoned monster's effects will be negated.

But fortunately, this monster will be destroyed at the end of the turn. For Fire King, the cards that are destroyed by effects are not all because most Fire King monsters have special abilities activated. Especially when destroyed by effects from other cards.

Fire King Avatar Barong (x2)

(first)

If a face-up "Fire King" monster you control is destroyed by a card effect (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand.

(2)

During the next Standby Phase after this card was destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard: Add 1 "Fire King" card from your Deck to your hand , except "Fire King Avatar Barong".

Barong allows you to add any Fire King card you want from your deck to your hand. However, if you go turn 1, Barong will hardly add anything to you because Barong will flash its effect during your opponent's turn and the card you put in your hand will be difficult to use immediately.

Fire King Avatar Yaksha (x1)

(first)

If a face-up "Fire King" monster you control is destroyed by a card effect (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand.

(2)

If this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard: You can destroy 1 card in your hand or that you control. You can only use this effect of "Fire King Avatar Yaksha" once per turn.

Yaksha is a Fire King that can activate its abilities when killed by effects or in combat, which can make your first few turns go smoother. You can take advantage of effect (2) to destroy your Fire Kings and make them eligible to activate the effect next turn.

How to play

Sample deck

Need 8 UR

Main: 20 Extra: 7

Fire King Avatar Arvata (Key)

The deck will play around the Arvata monster, using Arvata 's effect to negate the activation of the opponent's monster ability, interrupting their combo. Note, to use this effect, you must have another FIRE monster in your hand or on the field. Arvata is level 4 so summoning normally is very easy.

Arvata can destroy any fire-type monster when activating its effect, you can take advantage of this to have good deck-building directions when combined with other fire-type monsters.

Fire King Island, Fire Formation - Tenki and Fire King Avatar Barong (searchers)

Tenki

(first)

When this card is activated: You can add 1 Level 4 or lower Beast-Warrior monster from your Deck to your hand.

(2)

All Beast-Warrior monsters you control gain 100 ATK.

You can only activate 1 "Fire Formation - Tenki" per turn.

Using Tenki or Island can help you get Arvata in your hand.

All three cards, Barong , Tenki , and Island , allow you to get the Fire King from the deck into your hand. These cards can be combined with other Fire Kings to make your deck more linked and comboable. smoother. However, each card has a different way of use as well as different advantages and disadvantages, so it is necessary to consider the situation to be able to use them optimally.

Barong :

Can help you get any Fire King card (monster, spell, trap).
Because it is a monster, Barong can use it to fight like other monsters when it is not necessary to add more resources. Barong also has an effect that can be summoned from the hand when one of your Fire King monsters is destroyed by the effect.
However, Barong 's effect of getting cards into your hand is slow, you have to wait 1 turn to use this effect.

Tenki :

Can help you get Barong or Arvata right into your hand when activated.
Normally with 1 Tenki, you can only get 1 Beast-Warrior monster.
Because it is an eternal magic, once activated, Tenki will still be on the field. This can sometimes jam the slots of other cards.

Island :

Island is an environmental spell so it will have its own position and will not compete with Tenki .
Unlike Barong , Island can only get monsters in its hand. Island has an advantage over Tenki in that Island can get High Garunix into its hand.
Barong and Tenki 's effects can only be used at a certain time. Island can be used every turn if desired, as long as you have monsters in your hand or field for Island to destroy.
Island can destroy any monster, not just fire-type monsters or Fire King monsters.

Fire King High Avatar Garunix (boss)

In addition to Arvata , the deck also has another destructive monster, High Garunix . This is also a win condition for Fire King.

Try to combine other effects together to activate High Garunix 's monster destruction effect, but monsters on your field will also be destroyed.

Fire King Island and Onslaught of the Fire Kings (The card helps you call the boss the fastest)

Onslaught is a good card that can help you call High Garunix directly from your deck to the field. Additionally, at the end of the turn, Onslaught will destroy the summoned High Garunix . High Garunix is eligible to be special summoned in the next standby phase, activating a claw effect that sweeps all monsters on the field.

Onslaught is a card that is only strong when going later and is a normal spell, so this can be a dead card if unfortunately you go turn 1 or when the opponent's field has no monsters.

Using Island 's effect, when you control no monsters, you can special summon High Garunix from your hand to the field.

Fire King Island and Fire King Avatar Barong (add, add and add)

With Island and Barong (can be picked up with Tenki ) in hand, you will have a perfect setup for your turn:

Activate Island , use Island's effect to destroy Barong and add Arvata to your hand.
Normal summon Arvata to help you stay on the field next turn and end the turn.
During the enemy's standby phase, Barong will use the effect because he was destroyed by Island . Use this effect of Barong to get High Garunix in your hand.
If you need to negate an opponent's monster's effect with Arvata , destroy High Garunix in your hand.
After the opponent ends its turn, in your standby phase, High Garunix is eligible to activate the effect and will special summon to the field.
High Garunix continues to flash an effect that destroys all other monsters on the field (including Arvata on your side of the field).
Arvata can activate an effect after being destroyed to summon Barong from the grave to the field.
At the end of that phase, Barong summoned by Arvata will be destroyed. During the opponent's next standby phase, Barong will activate the effect and add another Fire King card to his hand from the deck.

Fire King Avatar Arvata and Fire King High Avatar Garunix (Delays the effects of High Garunix)

Not in all cases do you want High Garunix to activate the effect of destroying monsters on the field ( High Garunix 's effect is required).

One of those cases is that you still want to keep your Arvata monster on the field for another purpose. In this case, you can keep Arvata by using Avatar to negate High Garunix 's destruction effect, then destroy the High Garunix whose effect is disabled.

This way, you can delay High Garunix 's effect until the next turn, and you can also do the same on the next turn if you still want to keep Arvata on the field, but during that turn Arvata cannot be activated. Re-enable the disable effect again.

The Reincarnation of the Fire Kings!!!

High Garunix loop simply uses High Garunix 's effect to destroy another High Garunix available on your field. During the next standby phase, High Garunix from the grave will emerge and activate an effect that destroys all other monsters on the field, including High Garunix that was previously on the field. As a result, in each standby phase, there is only High Garunix on the field.

To perform combos you need to have 2 High Garunix :

A High Garunix on the field.
And find a way to destroy the second High Garunix .

As a result, in the next standby phase, the destroyed High Garunix in the grave will be summoned to the field and destroy the remaining High Garunix to start the combo loop.

This loop combo creates a characteristic of Fire King's gameplay. Although strong, the combo takes a lot of cards to set up so it is difficult to perform and the combo will easily be interrupted if High Garunix fails to activate its effect.

Circle of the Fire Kings

(first)

Target 1 FIRE monster you control and 1 FIRE monster in your GY; destroy that monster you control, and if you do, Special Summon that other monster from your GY.

You can only activate 1 "Circle of the Fire Kings" per turn.

Tip for loop combo: Use Circle of the Fire Kings to summon High Garunix from the grave and destroy 1 available High Garunix on your field.

Circle of the Fire Kings is a quick-play spell, so you can take advantage of this advantage to summon monsters in the battle phase to deal additional damage to your opponent.

Using Circle of the Fire Kings to destroy Barong or High Garunix and pull up Arvata from the grave will both give you a monster that can prevent the opponent's combo and create conditions for other Fire Kings to activate effects.

Island when leaving the field can destroy all monsters you control. This is an advantage for the Fire Kings. You can actively use this effect by replacing an Island other than the existing Island on the field.

Diamond Dire Wolf (Support from extra deck)

2 Level 4 monsters

(first)

Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 Beast, Beast-Warrior , or Winged Beast-Type monster you control and 1 other card on the field; destroy them.

When played in the Fire King deck, this monster does not necessarily have to destroy itself but can instead be other Fire Kings.

Battlin' Boxer Veil (Helps you activate skills with 0 damage!)

(first)

When you take battle damage: You can Special Summon this card from your hand, and if you do, gain Life Points equal to the damage you took.

Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys (High Garunix's version of destroying spells and traps)

Once per turn, during your next Standby Phase after this card was destroyed by a card effect and sent to the GY: Special Summon this card from the GY.

Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Tiger King (A powerful beast)

2 Level 4 Beast-Warrior monsters

(first)

When this card is Xyz Summoned: You can Set 1 "Fire Formation" Spell/Trap directly from your Deck .

(2)

Once per turn: You can detach 1 material from this card; negate the effects of all face-up Effect Monsters currently on the field, except Beast-Warriors, until the end of your opponent's turn .

(3)

When this card is sent from the field to the GY: You can send 3 "Fire Formation" Spells/Traps you control to the GY; Special Summon 2 Level 4 or lower Beast-Warrior monsters with the same ATK from your Deck, in face-up Defense Position.

Tiger King can pull Tenki from the deck to the field, in addition to the ability to neutralize wide-area monster powers. These are very powerful effects, but very few decks can take advantage of the power of this monster because the summoning conditions are very difficult.

Fire King ft. Invoked (1 sd)

Refer to the deck here .

Fire King 30 cards

Refer to the deck here .

Coach Soldier Wolfbark (support)

(first)

You can target 1 Level 4 FIRE Beast-Warrior-Type monster in your Graveyard ; Special Summon it in face-up Defense Position . Its effects are negated.

You can only use the effect of "Coach Soldier Wolfbark" once per turn.

Use Wolfbark to recall Barong or Arvata , you can use Wolfbark and the summoned monster to xyz 4.

Although the effects of the summoned monster are disabled, what you really need is to be able to use other effects to destroy and use effects in the grave of Barong or Arvata .

Megaroid City and Kiteroid (roid engine)

(first)

You can target 1 other card you control; destroy it , and if you do, add 1 "roid" card from your Deck to your hand.

(2)

During damage calculation, if your "roid" monster battles: You can send 1 "roid" monster from your Deck to the GY; switch the original ATK and DEF of your battling monster during the damage calculation only.

You can only use each effect of "Megaroid City" once per turn. You cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck, except Fusion Monsters, the turn you activate either of this card's effects (even if this card leaves the field).

Megaroid City can help you facilitate Fire Kings using their effects. Besides, getting more Kiteroids from the deck into your hand helps you survive one more turn of your opponent, compensating for Fire King's weaknesses when their effects are slow and passive.
