The Fire King Structure Deck R sparks life into the Fire King archetype by greatly improving its power, consistency, and grind! New cards such as the Legendary Fire King Ponix start the cycle of rebirth and Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings incinerate the opponent's defenses! What a glorious blaze!
The Island's Citizens
Legendary Fire King Ponix
Garunix's base form ties the entire archetype together in new ways!
Effects:
1. He Special Summons himself from the hand if a FIRE monster(s) is destroyed by battle or card effect. This assists in swarming the field for combos. He can also defend your life points in a pinch.
2. He searches for a Fire King spell or trap on Normal or Special Summon. This effect pairs well with the various means to Special Summon him, including his own effect.
3. He adds himself back to the hand during the next Standby Phase after being destroyed. This recursion allows Fire Kings to outgrind opponents.
Sacred Fire King Garunix
This retrain of Fire King High Avatar Garunix serves as a combo piece/beater.
Effects:
1. He Special Summons himself from the hand or graveyard if a FIRE monster(s) is destroyed by battle or card effect. This enhanced version of the Fire King swarming effect allows Fire Kings to build or recover boards with minimal resources.
2. If Normal or Special Summoned, he can destroy 1 FIRE Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast monster in your hand, Deck, or face-up field, except himself, and if you do, he gains attack equal to half the destroyed monster's attack. This enables some high value plays with Fire King High Avatar Kirin and Fire King Avatar Arvata.
Fire King High Avatar Kirin
This retrain of Fire King Avatar Kirin increases the speed of Fire Kings.
Effects:
1. (Quick Effect) Destroy 1 other FIRE monster in your hand or that you control, and if you do, Special Summon this card from the hand. This effect can be used to dodge hand traps and even enable plays on the opponent's turn!
2. If this card is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, then he Special Summons a Fire King from the hand or graveyard, except himself, then destroys 1 card. This amazing effect does not target and allows board breaking with ease. You can Special Summon Fire King Avatar Arvata or Fire King Avatar Hanuman to create a defensive wall.
Fire King Avatar Barong
He boosts consistency by searching for most things Fire King.
Effects:
1. If a face-up Fire King monster(s) is destroyed by a card effect, then you can Special Summon this card from the hand. It's the swarming ability shared by most Fire Kings. He can enable otks and provides more extra deck material.
2. Add 1 Fire King card, except himself, during the next Standby Phase, after this card is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the graveyard. This effect compliments Ponix by searching for whatever else you need.
Fire King Avatar Arvata
Powerful effects make him a valuable ally.
Effects:
1. (Quick Effect) Negate a monster effect by destroying 1 other FIRE monster in your hand or your field. Primarily used with Sacred Fire King Garunix or Ponix, this effect stops threats such as Nibiru, the Primal Being, Droll & Lock Bird, and D.D. Crow.
2. If destroyed and sent to the graveyard, you can revive 1 targeted FIRE Beast, Winged-Beast, or Beast-Warrior, but negate its effects and it is destroyed during the End Phase. The best target is High Avatar Kirin, who doesn't mind being negated and destroyed on the field and can revive Fire King Avatar Arvata in return.
Fire King Avatar Hanuman
He covers what Fire King Avatar Arvata can not.
Effects:
1. If a face-up Fire King monster(s) is destroyed by a card effect, then you can Special Summon this card from the hand. You can Special Summon him on the opponent's first turn with High Avatar Kirin.
2. (Quick Effect) Negate a spell or trap by destroying 1 other FIRE monster in your hand or your field. With an activation condition like Fire King Avatar Arvata, this effect stops threats such as Evenly Matched, Cosmic Cyclone, and Infinite Impermanence.
Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings
Fire King's new boss monster cleanses the board with his sacred immolation!
Effects:
1. You can destroy all other monsters on the field if this card is Xyz Summoned. This insane effect combos with Fire King Sanctuary, which can Special Summon Garunix on the opponent's turn.
2. Detach 1 material to target and destroy 1 spell or trap on the field. This effect simplifies game states.
3. If destroyed with material, then you can Special Summon Fire King monsters from the graveyard up to the material he had. Reviving either Fire King Avatar Arvata or Fire King Avatar Hanuman along with Fire King High Avatar Kirin is a great play.
The Island's Specialties
Fire King Island
It boosts consistency and triggers Fire King effects by destroying 1 card in your hand or field to search for a Fire King Monster. It can also Special Summon a Winged Beast like Ponix and Sacred Fire King Garunix from the hand if you control no monsters without using their own Special Summon effects. An amazing card like this comes with a drawback, however, as it destroys all your monsters if it's sent to the Graveyard or banished from the field face-up.
Sanctuary of the Fire Kings
It places Fire King Island from the deck to the Field Zone face-up and protects it from card effect destruction by destroying a FIRE monster in your hand or field instead. It also incentivises the Special Summon of Garunix Eternity on the opponent's turn.
Circle of the Fire Kings
It's a revival card that triggers Fire King effects. It can also enable OTKs.
Fire King Sacred Immolation
Clear the board with targeted destruction removal. Also its graveyard effect protects Fire King cards from card destruction effects by banishing itself from the graveyard. This can protect Fire King cards from board wiping cards like Evilswarm Exciton Knight or Black Rose Dragon.
Fire Formation - Tenki
It boosts the consistency of any deck that uses Beast-Warriors.
The Island's Denizens
Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring
Her FIRE Attribute synergizes with Fire King support.
Droll & Lock Bird
His Spellcaster typing can be used for link climbing.
The Wanted Treasure Hunter
This deck uses the Diabellestarr engine and 1 card in your hand or field to Special Summon Ponix from the deck. "The Sinful Spoils Hunter Fiend" searches for Diabellestarr the Dark Witch, who sends 1 other card to the graveyard to Special Summon herself from the hand. On Special Summon, she searches for The Original Sinful Spoils - Snake-Eye, which can send Diabellestarr to the graveyard to Special Summon Ponix. Hunter Fiend and Snake-Eye also have graveyard effects where the former adds Ponix to the hand from the deck and the latter draws a card. These interactions combo with Sacred Fire King Garunix, which has a graveyard effect, or a spent Fire Formation - Tenki.
