PURE Fire King is EXPLOSIVE! 

I'm really hoping TCGland doesn't murder Fire Kings on a banlist.

Graveyard removal on exactly Sacred Garunix and Princess shuts the deck down. To be clear, Belle and Skull Meister are okay against this deck, but you REALLY want Crows or Crow-like effects. This deck has insane grind potential, if you don't remove those cards from their Graveyard, they'll just do it again next turn. It's tough for them to get more than one Sacred Garunix into rotation and he is THE card they use to get the deck to work, so removing the first one is usually a death nail, and everyone knows Crow targets Princess this format. The negate targets change depending on what all they have in rotation, but typically, you want to negate either of Kirin's effects. He's just way too good, even better in pure than in the Snake Eye build. If they're going first, you want to Imperm or Veiler the Garunix. Also, removal on the field spell isn't always great, but if you know the deck well enough, you can find the points in their gameplay loop that lose if you remove the field spell at that exact juncture. Ash isn't great against this deck because it allows them to weave Hiita into their lines, but if you Ash them, Ash the field spell or Ulcanix, whichever activates first. Note that you **cannot** Ash Garunix, since it destroys, it does not send to graveyard.

Was even better when Kaiser Coliseum was at 3.

​@timaeus22222 your replays are CRAZY!

@@BushidoBanks much appreciated! :)

@@timaeus22222 I would actually respectfully disagree with the Dingirsu in the deck profile, a second Eternity would probably serve you better. One for the opponent's turn, and a second one if the game goes into a grind or if they play through and you want to wipe their board a second time. It's come up a lot for me.

@@nightwish7074 You can feel free to use all 3. The Dingirsu has come up for me in the same turn to break pesky floating FIRE boards.

@@timaeus22222 Yeah, I imagine the non-targeted send to GY effect comes up a lot in the Snake Eye matchup. Chain Sanctuary to the summon of I:P, go into Ding to check it.

The typical criteria are, - "did the opponent get to play?" - "is it longer than 8 minutes?" - "did it showcase enough plays from the deck?" Or if it's shorter than 8 minutes, show 2. :)

Come to stream next time and give it a go. Sometimes you gotta try and see. - timaeus222

Master Duel has it at 1 :(
