[ember rampart]

Says no to Floo

[young flame]

oh that thing

it is a lovely deck

definitely will do my part of recommending this over anything with Nadir

[steady verge]

i think you should consider playing 2-3 OSS and then also tenki, it helps to bring out ponix without normalsummon

[knotty kite]

Looks great! Any recommendations for upgrading this particular list with a small budget? (i.e. not enough for a diabellstar or Kashtira package)

[steady verge]

do you think replacing prosp with smallworld is ok? i cant buy prosps till february but still want to play the deck

[ember rampart]

Sure. It doesn't conflict with Heatsoul Draw. You might want to max out on FK Island tho since you lose that benefit of potentially fetching it /w prosp.

[steady verge]

True, thx

i love playing pure fk, there are so much weird but super funny to play hands

[young flame]

agreed

[steady verge]

but i think i would consider cutting arvata to 2 because then you minimalize the chance of bricking on arvata+ponix without a way to ss ponix

but on the other side i feel like you still have so much ways and hand combinations to ss ponic, so i think we have to test both ratios

still dont like playing more than 5 ns

[ember rampart]

My best advice honestly is to SAVE that budget as the list will obviously change come PHNI. In either case though, you can go ahead and get Amblowhale as its useful now (even in this budget list) and post PHNI.

Zeus/Nightengale are also okay upgrades (for now), just be aware that Island will wipe Zeus as well if it is up.

[ivory vault]

how does this compare?
as mentioned before I am totally new so most of the decks Ive built or suggested are "monkey see monkey do", so I dont really know why one deck would be better than the other

I guess ty-phon isnt budget
would be open to alternative (although seeing as both my decks could use him I might get him)

[ember rampart]

It's fine, though it is on the more vulnerable side to hand traps by virtue of just not having Crossout (or the ability to pontentially search it /w Prosp). TTT helps but even then it still isn't much you can do if your Island was hit /w Ash or if your Ponix on summon (after search) was hit with Droll.

I will say you most definitely want Unicorn if you plan to use I:P.

[ivory vault]

replaced TTT with prosp (which I already have)
who do I take out to put unicorn?

[ember rampart]

Either Ty-Phon, Underworld Goddess, or Amblowhale.

[ivory vault]

I already have goddess; might take out typhon @ember rampart

[young flame]

pretty sure Typhon is mandatory pre-PHNI

so I have heard

[ivory vault]

the goal is to use the other xyz to summon typhon?

[ember rampart]

Naw. You can literally use any monster to summon out Ty-Phon.

[ivory vault]

oh yeah maybe I mistook it with zeus

might sub out amblowhale then

how does this look like then?

[ember rampart]

It's fine lol

[dawn drum]

I would honestly try to main deck ghost mourner over crow for general coverage, but that really moreso depends on comfort and playstyle

[ember rampart]

Sure. It stops random Called by from banishing our Fire Kings lol

I like Crow as it has a huge impact on Unchained's longevity by banishing their Blue Dog.

[dawn drum]

That’s true. I love crow over bystials, hot take. I just think negating a Yama, tour guide, or deus ex can hit

This is my take on a budget list, and this is totally buildable without the Accesscode, Zeus, and typhon

Only really expensive card is talents and prosps (~$5)

[spark hemlock]

What is the move for a pure build without crossout and pros because Im poor. Tenki?

[young flame]

start with 3x SD builds and proceed from there

You would do a lot for yourself if you have 3 OSS and just Tenki.

Not on the same niveau as either Diabellstar or Snake-Eyes but gets you card advantage anyhow

[spark hemlock]

OSS?

[young flame]

<Original Sinful Spoils>

[pearl geode]

[steady verge]

idk if 3 OSS arent too bricky

i would play 2

especially because if you dont draw it with tenki you have to normal a monster and then send it, so it still takes your normalsummon

[ember rampart]

Budget Pure Fire Kings

[dawn rose]

alright so

[dawn rose]

ive been really enjoying this list, one thing ive noticed (which is probably just a massive simulator moment) is that crossout seems glued to my hand but doesnt end up doing much because my opponents have been using disruption i dont have (called by, talents)

i feel like i definitely want to be running at least one of each, potentially 3 talents, but im not sure what to replace

[vital talon]

With prosp u can honestly just, run 1 called 2 talents

Not a drastic consistency loss, and its more valuabke than forcing a smaller engine

[dawn rose]

thats true!

its also less expensive

[rare mauve]

This may seem like a strange request but for newer players (like myself) could you paste the deck list here?:) the resolution ain’t great

[rare mauve]

What is the one of spell card in the main deck and what would you recommend swapping out in the extra deck for little knight and typhon?

Thanks!

[ember rampart]

1 of you're talking about I'm assuming is One for One.

For S:P, Unicorn for sure.

Dharc, Anima, or Goddess can be cut for TyPhon.

It's not in this particular list, but I also recommend Amblowhale. Tops your board off from being vulnerable to Super Poly, Drnm, or Evenly.

[rare mauve]

Thank you! Appreciate it. Could you explain how whale does that and what to take out to replace it with?

[ember rampart]

Amblowhale reduces your monster board count to 1. If they Evenly, you keep Whale while banishing the other cards.

When it is destroyed by a card effect (usually by High Kirin) it Special Summons back a Link-3 or lower from GY, preferably I:P if it is there. With Sacred also triggering and Sacred able to pop a High Kirin from deck, simply destroying Whale will total to like 4 monsters on board when everything finishes resolving.

[ember rampart]

You can choose from Dharc, Anima, or Goddess again to cut for Whale.

[rare mauve]

Thank you!!

Who is that far left xyz monster and do you think it’s necessary?:)

[dawn rose]

<dingirsu, orcust of the evening star>, and yes, absolutely

[dawn rose]

also, how does one get to amblowhale?

[ember rampart]

There's a few routes but generally a hand of ponix + high kirin or arvata can do it in pure. Check out the combo sheet in the faq for further info.

[dawn rose]

awesome, thanks!

[rare mauve]

[ember rampart]

That's fine.

[steady verge]

i would play zeus, but also without it the ed is still fine

[ancient geyser]

Finally bought an playset of prosperities, i feel Like theyre filling the Last 3 Main Deck Slots perfectly, especially in pure

[rare mauve]

@ember rampart hi, have you made any chances to your original deck list, or you still think this is the best option excluding diabellstar / spoils

[ember rampart]

This particular version, no. However, I did make another budget list particularly for folk who have issues with the high hand trap count in this version as all the HTs can brick hands. Check it out: https://discord.com/channels/730075676576710776/1182696858838114475

[static sun]

Can this version compete at small events and against tier2 decks?
I usually play traptrix and do well

And how u deal with dari ruler no more and evenly matched?

[ember rampart]

Yes, but if you feel the high ht count is too bricky, I recommend https://discord.com/channels/730075676576710776/1182696858838114475

[ember rampart]

By running Amblowhale. Just take out Goddess and insert Whale.

[brittle thicket]

What cards are mandatory in the extra deck? As in used in combos to build boards and such?

[ember rampart]

Eternity Garunix, Heatsoul, Sunlight Wolf, I:P, S:P (or Unicorn), Almiraj, Linkuriboh

[brittle thicket]

Awesome. So 8 Prosperity fodder. Or 6 while doubling up on some stuff. Thank you

[ember rampart]

Add Amblowhale to this (forgot). Sorry. I recommend it, even if its not on this particular list.

[brittle thicket]

I don't have Amblowhale sadly

[ember rampart]

That's fine. It's not NEEDED needed. You can still function
