Fire King
From previous weeks, there’s been little change for Fire King, with its 14 hand-traps out of 17 flexspots. The proposed versions continue to exclude Snake-Eye Oak and Circle of the Fire Kings to make room for Fire King Sky Burn. As for the extra deck, the presence of Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings seems to have stabilized within it, as well as the second Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames to play around Nibiru, the Primal Being.
The proposed version excludes Accesscode Talker because most OTK lines use Worldsea Dragon Zealantis as the main pivot.
PSY-Framegear Delta and PSY-Framegear Gamma have been very effective lately as side cards to negate cards like Original Sinful Spoils – Snake-Eye/Fire King Sanctuary, etc., with Gamma negating monster effects’ activation and removing them from the field.
Voiceless Voice
Compared to last week’s version, this one prefers the Diviner of the Herald / Trias Hierarchia package over Nadir Servant / Dogmatika Maximus. Diviner sends Trias Hierarchia to the graveyard, then tributes it using its effect, triggering Herald’s effect to summon Lo, the Prayers of the Voiceless Voice from the deck.
Pot of Extravagance is used to boost consistency, while the Odd-Eyes Pendulumgraph Dragon / Odd-Eyes Wing Dragon package increases the layers of interruptions available. For the second consecutive week, we see Sauravis, the Ancient and Ascended reduced to just one copy in the main deck.
Blessing of the Voiceless Voice remains in the main deck as a solid 1-of, although this list excludes Secure Gardna (the combo was explained in the previous meta report). The multiple copies of S:P and Dyna Mondo are due to the presence of Extravagance.
In the Side Deck, we notice that this list, like many others, is following the trend of playing Delta and Gamma, as well as Different Dimension Ground and Triple Tactics Thrust, which seem to have become the main counter-play against Fire King and Snake-Eye.
Tenpai Dragon
The new deck from Legacy of Destruction features Sangen Superdragon Transcend Dragion as its boss monster. The main beaters of the deck, which enable effective OTKs, are Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion, Sangen Superdragon Transcend Dragion, and Trident Dragion. Tenpai Dragon Baidora, Tenpai Dragon Zhongdora, Brimming Sangen Manor, and Sangen Kaimen are key cards in this deck, each enabling an OTK that deals over 30,000 damage.
The basic combo using Tenpai Dragon Baidora is as follows:
- Tenpai Dragon Baidora adds Sangen Kaimen, then enter in Battle Phase.
- Sangen Kaimen adds to hand and Special Summons Tenpai Dragon Zhongdora.
- Tenpai Dragon Zhongdora’s effect at the start of the damage step summons Tenpai Dragon Fadora.
- Tenpai Dragon Zhongdora’s Synchro effect summons Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion using itself and Fadora or Baidora.
- Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion’s effect revives Fadora from the graveyard, triggering Fadora’s effect to revive Zhongdora.
- Tenpai Dragon Fadora’s Synchro effect summons Sangen Superdragon Transcend Dragion using itself and Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion.
- If 3 or more attacks have been declared, Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion can be revived from the graveyard using its effect and, upon summoning, can destroy a Spell/Trap on the field. This effect synergizes with the archetype as it can destroy its own Brimming Sangen Manor, which, when destroyed during the Battle Phase, can target a Dragon Synchro Monster and double its attack.
- Baidora/Fadora’s Synchro effect summons Trident Dragion using itself and Sangen Risedragon Bident Dragion, which, when Synchro summoned, can destroy up to 2 cards you control and gain an additional attack for each one destroyed.
- If 3 or more attacks have been declared, Sangen Superdragon Transcend Dragion can be revived from the graveyard using its effect and destroy a card on the field.
The deck proposed today plays 14 starters, including the aforementioned key cards, with Terraforming and Gold Sarcophagus to banish Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Inferno, and add a Fire Dragon from the deck to the hand.
The deck features a total of 20 Flexspots, excluding 2 Pot of Desires and the 1of Pot of Prosperity, which, for a deck focused on going second, poses a serious threat.
As for the Extra Deck, the proposed version includes Super Polymerization targets, including Earth Golem @Ignister, which is often used to dismantle boards containing I:P Masquerena + Apollousa, Bow of the Goddess. Black Rose Dragon, being a Fire Dragon, can be used in combination with openings that include Brimming Sangen Manor to prevent the opponent from interacting with its effect and effectively clear the board for an OTK.
Wind Pegasus @Ignister provides utility against S/T as well as Links, and TY-PHON serves as a backup plan if things go left.
The side deck contains cards to punish opponents who choose to go second post-side, including cards like Heat Wave and Kaiser Colosseum.
