Good for both going 1st and 2nd
The goal is to set up an OTK with Rekindling summoning 5 monsters from the GY including Totem Five which will wipe the opponent board and inflict tons of damage. Then you can direct attack the opponent for the kill.
Other fun combos :
- Norm Red Resonator, use its effect to spe Firebrand Hymnist, fill up your GY and summon Horse Prince + another monster from the deck (that's the ideal T1 scenario)
- You have many cards to send to GY cards from your deck (Flamvell Lady, Kirin, Foolish...) your main target is Totem to set up the combo, but if you already have it go for a tuner (Red Resonator or Ashe) instead to have the target for Rekindled Rebirth
- After using Extravagance you can use Rebirth to summon Sunsaga (Red Resonator + Hazy Flame Cerberus) and destroy cards your opponent controls with its effect (theoretically up to 9 cards but I never managed to get more than 4)
- Circle of the Fire Kings can trigger the Fire King effects (no s*** Sherlock)
- If you can't OTK with Rekindling combo, you can still try to summon Crimson Blader to block your opponent's next turn using Rekindling monsters as material
Changes that can be made :
- 3x Hand Destruction can be too much if your opponent doesn't have 2 or more cards in their hand often
- Royal Decree can be included against certain decks
- Any other suggestion you may have, I built this deck for fun in less than an hour and I wasn't familiar with the archetypes so it probably has a lot of room for improvement ! :)
Strenghts : Versatility (OTK, Burn and some defensive options), Stability (there is no real main combo so you're always able to set up an OTK in like 3 turns) and a lot of draw power
Weaknesses : Too many to list! This is a fun deck after all
Hope you enjoy playing with this deck! :)
