Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring

From YGOCounter


Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring


FIRE Level 3

[ Zombie / Effect / Tuner ]

When a card or effect is activated that includes any of these effects (Quick Effect): You can discard this card; negate that effect.

  • Add a card from the Deck to the hand.
  • Special Summon from the Deck.
  • Send a card from the Deck to the GY.

You can only use this effect of Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring once per turn.

ATK/ 0 DEF/ 1800

Negate Adding a Card from Deck, Summoning from Deck, Sending from Deck to GY

Tips:

- A general rule of thump to active Ash Blossom is against with high costs and/or restrictions, such as Pot of Desires, Left Arm Offering, Ties of the Brethren, and A Hero Lives. Or against that require opponent go minus to active like One for One...

- Being a level 3 Zombie, Fire Monster, Ash Blossom can help Synchro Level 10 to Barrone de Fleur

- While it might seem counter-productive, using Ash on a card like Maxx "C" or the Mulcharmy suite can allow you to still go full combo without worrying about giving your opponent extra hand-traps/board breakers/combo pieces.

- Ash is a main deck staple. Almost every deck will contain 3x Ash Blossom, no matter the meta.

Guiding Quem, the Virtuous

Branded Fusion is the best starter in the Deck. Only Ash Aluber if - the opponent is low card in hand - they don't have Branded Fusion in hand (you can guess by total number of - they don't have any effect that can retrieve Branded Fusion from the GY (like GY effect of Branded Retribution Branded Retribution or Despian Tragedy Despian Tragedy) Sometimes it might be correct to Ash Branded in High Spirits Branded in High Spirits if they use it first, especially if they reveal Bystial Saronir Bystial Saronir with it. It helps them get to Branded Fusion, and if they have it already in hand they can search other cards to strengthen their board by a lot.

-Fallen of the White Dragon is the new best starter in the deck, as of Burst Protocol. White Dragon effect to special summon itself cannot be Ash'd, however, it's effect on summon can. Preventing it from getting Ecclesia on board CAN prevent the deck from putting up a board, but it can also lead to Branded Fusion being online as they wouldn't have summoned a Synchro monster yet.

-Ecclesia and the Dark Dragon however, is a great Ash target. Preventing the player from summoning either Guiding Quem, the Virtuous Guiding Quem, the Virtuous or Blazing Cartesia, the Virtuous Blazing Cartesia, the Virtuous can effectively stop the turn in it's tracks, especially since summoning the synchro shuts off Branded Fusion and Fusion Deployment Fusion Deployment

Dark Magician Dark Magician Magician's Rod, Magicians' Souls, Soul Servant

Rod is the primary Normal Summon in a DM deck, unless they got Primite and used Miasma Necromancer to get an extra Normal Summon. Negating this turns off their main searcher. Souls' effect is basically blind draws, but with enough fodders it's a Pot of Greed. And Soul Servant is a must-Ash because its first draw is always the most critical piece the DM player is looking for
