Test Counter Deck

Chokepoint	Explanation	Impact	Link
	They don't banish	Bad	View Edit
- Fire King Island 1st effect if they did the normal summon - Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 1st effect	You want to block any monster searches. Fire King Island and Fire King Courtier Ulcanix usually search Sacred Fire King Garunix so they can start setting up. Legendary Fire King Ponix couldbe a bait but in advanced game states is a viable target. Also they will make Hiita the Fire Charmer, Ablaze to SS your Ash.	Usable	View Edit
	They don't have targets for the bystials HT.	Bad	View Edit
- Sacred Fire King Garunix special summon from GY	Almost completely shuts the deck for two turns.	Great	View Edit
- Sacred Fire King Garunix when summoning from GY. - Jurrac Astero only in their turn - Fire King High Avatar Garunix any time	These are just the best cards to remove, Fire king has no ways of recovering a banished card so basically anything goes. The Jurrac Astero interaction prevents a possible board wipe. In both cases they can set up again but they probably already used Miscellaneousaurus. Banishing Fire King High Avatar Garunix has some merits but should be done only if you get acces to a second D.D. Crow	Great	View Edit
	Fire king doesn't rely on having strong bodies on field and most of the power comes from the GY effects.	Bad	View Edit
	Completely blocks the deck.	Great	View Edit
- Sacred Fire King Garunix summon effect	Great because they don't have much to do after.	Great	View Edit
- Fire King Island 1st effect	Same as Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring but you don't give them the Hiita the Fire Charmer, Ablaze play.	Great	View Edit
- Legendary Fire King Ponix resolution	They can play through it but activating in resolution of Legendary Fire King Ponix has a huge impact.	Usable	View Edit
- Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 1st effect - Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames summon from GY effect - Jurrac Meteor effect	Any Fire King name isn't a great target for field negation as they can be destroyed to play through it. Except Fire King Courtier Ulcanix on turn 1 (hoping they don't have Fire King High Avatar Kirin). The optimal targets should be non archetypal monsters like Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames, this interaction in particular stops the setup. Jurrac Meteor will always be played on your turn but in the rare occasion it's not you should try to stop it.	Weak	View Edit
	Surely the banish is always a strong counter to Fire King but they'll try to save as many monsters as possible. A nice mind game could be attempting to go BP if they have Jurrac Astero effect ready in GY: if they don't respect the Evenly you get some free banishes, if they wipe you removed an interaction without playing cards.	Usable	View Edit
- Any problematic board wipe - Fire King Avatar Arvata if they try to negate	This one is better than Infinite Impermanence and Effect Veiler thanks to the speed it gains with its effect and the non targeting. It's always better to discard a spell since they could activate Fire King Sky Burn and play through your interruption. Fire King Avatar Arvata is usually the only monster negate in the deck, some lists play Fire King Avatar Rangbali, the spell negate, but it's really rare.	Great	View Edit
- Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames 3rd effect - Fire King High Avatar Kirin, Fire King Avatar Arvata, effect to SS from GY - Fire King High Avatar Garunix mandatory SP effect (situational)	Ghost Belle should be used for effects that come from the monster destroyed by Sacred Fire King Garunix effect: Fire King High Avatar Kirin or Fire King Avatar Arvata. You give them a free body on board but they used already two important effects. Stopping Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames 3rd effect in any way possible is always a good investment. Otherwise during SP on Fire King High Avatar Garunix if the board wipe is problematic. It's better to save this HT for interactions that happen on your turn so that you don't get disrupted.	Great	View Edit
- Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 1st effect - Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames - Jurrac Meteor	You're mainly using her as an Effect Veiler, hoping that they'll get some damage.	Weak	View Edit
- Legendary Fire King Ponix 1st effect - Fire King Island if there's no Fire King Sanctuary	You're forcing them to use resources or even skip the turn if they don't have FIRE monsters. Breaking Fire King Island can be good since its destroyed effect requires a dedicated play, but could be protected by Fire King Sanctuary. Impact between Usable and Weak	TBD	View Edit
Any effect that summons	The first SS is usually Sacred Fire King Garunix with its effect. Even if they play into it a good setup can deal more than 10.000 LP and they can recycle resources. So in some cases you get a turn but they can disrupt. Impact between Usable and Weak	TBD	View Edit
- Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 1st effect - Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames summon from GY effect - Jurrac Meteor effect	Almost the same as effect veiler, if set the column negation effect could come in handy for Fire King Sanctuary or Fire King Sky Burn.	Usable	View Edit
Link 4 or lone body	Hoping that you're not playing the FIRE Kaiju, if they end with only a monster on field it could be a huge stop. They can always regain momentum with Jurrac Meteor, assuming they set it up. Lava Golem most of the times is a benefit for them.	Weak	View Edit
- After Jurrac Meteor and all the effects they get.	Could be a nice counter if you manage to keep her on field until the ED, so that with the 2nd effect you can steal some pieces like Sacred Fire King Garunix or Fire King High Avatar Garunix.	Usable	View Edit
Start of turn	Always remove spell/traps, destroying their monsters will have none or even negative impact. Very (very) rarely you can destroy the monsters if they don't have backrow, they're short on cards and without Legendary Fire King Ponix and Template:U in hand.	Weak	View Edit
As soon as possible	Well it's Maxx "C", you're gonna get at least two cards if they set up a small board, even more if they think the link plays are worthy. But it doesn't completely force a turn skip.	Usable	View Edit
As soon as possible - Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 2nd effect	Since you don't know if they're gonna play links it's better to be prepared as early as possible, the summon from deck is only one tho. Best case scenario gets you four draws ( Hiita the Fire Charmer, Ablaze -> Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames -> link 4 + Fire King High Avatar Garunix from deck if they had the opportunity. Or you can chain to Fire King Courtier Ulcanix 2nd effect for a guaranteed draw.	Weak	View Edit
Start of your turn	A nice turbo to get on your turn, since most of the interactions they have summon from GY. If you have duplicates you get a lot of value by activating one in their turn as well.	Usable	View Edit
Start of their turn	They'll always play into it (if they don't want an empty board) so enjoy a +2.	Usable	View Edit
- Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames if they used Hiita the Fire Charmer, Ablaze - After Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames summons (if not Fire King Avatar Arvata - On the link 4 - Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings - Any overextention	Nibiru works good only for the link plays or when they use a lot of resources. For links the idea is that with a non FIRE on field they can't do much (if they didn't set up a Jurrac Meteor nuke), if they reach the 5th summon on Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames you should punish that. Making Garunix Eternity, Hyang of the Fire Kings is usually part of an OTK that requires commitment, if you have the opportunity to stop it before the BP you can breathe for a turn and possibly win.	Usable	View Edit
- Sacred Fire King Garunix 1st effect	The impact should be similar as activating Dominus Impulse.	Great	View Edit
	They don't really have trap plays.	Bad	View Edit
- Circle of the Fire Kings	First of all you can't activate Retaliating "C" in response to the SS of Fire King Sanctuary, so the only possible tharget is Circle of the Fire Kings, or Onslaught of the Fire Kings but it's not really a great card. The impact depends on how fast they can remove the floodgate.	Usable	View Edit
- Sacred Fire King Garunix 1st effect - Fire King Sky Burn	If you're playing a deck that can recycle it easily you have a strong interruption that can work even in the Damage Step. For Sauravis, the Ancient and Ascended 1st effect you can protect from a Fire King Sky Burn or even stop Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames. It's 2nd effect is a really good way to remove Sacred Fire King Garunix. It's a really good HT that works in many scenarios.	Great	View Edit
- Anything that comes after Sacred Fire King Garunix	Kinda similar to Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion but a little weaker, you can use it basically for everything as long as it's not in the Damage Step. Like Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion stopping the effect of the monster destroyed by Sacred Fire King Garunix has more value.	Usable	View Edit
In your turn, assuming they have materials: Right at the start if you can empty their board, Fire King Sanctuary xyz summon, Jurrac Meteor effect In their turn: Any two monsters on their field	With any two bodies you can make an easy Mudragon of the Swamp. Remember that spells like Fire King Sky Burn don't need the original targets on field for the effect to resolve. Removing everything as soon as possible is a really good way to limit the interactions and simplifly your turn. Fire King Sanctuary doens't happen often but it's heavily countered by this. Respond to Jurrac Meteor only if they didn't use Sacred Fire King Garunix yet and you're able to remove every monster they have. In their turn the advantage is good but it really depends on their hand.	Great	View Edit
Links, very rarely the xyz.	Very niche and they'll try to respond with Fire King Sky Burn, if unresponded the impact is really good.	Usable	View Edit
