Yubel Fire King: deck recipe [Jan 9]

The concept behind this deck is actually quite old: Yubel synergizes very well with the “Fire King” archetype and its second form, Yubel - Terror Incarnate.

It's a powerful boss monster since it has a non-targeting monster removal effect. The cost of summoning isn't a big issue in this deck since your Fire King monsters have effects when destroyed.

Ideally, you want to use a Fire King High Avatar Garunix or Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys for Wipe Monster and Backrow.

Arvata is good too since it can special summon a monster from your graveyard. The special summoned monster is negated so it's mostly just to have another monster on the field for tribute or help with OTK.

You want to at least start the Duel with these two cards.

Once per turn, you can destroy a monster in your hand or that you control with Fire King Island and then add a “Fire King” monster from your deck to your hand or, if you control no monsters, you can Special Summon 1 Winged-Beast FIRE monster from your hand.

The first part of the effect of the Field Spell allows you to trigger Yubel’s effect and Special Summon Yubel - Terror Incarnate from your hand, Deck or Graveyard while also adding a Fire King monster to your hand. Whereas second effect is used to get Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys or High Garunix on the field right away.

My Name is Yubel allows you shuffle back into the Deck one of the two other forms of the monster and add a copy of the first form to your hand, making the deck more consistent.

High Avatar Garunix is another boss monster of the deck with high destructive power like Yubel - Terror Incarnate. Destroy High Avatar Garunix from your hand with effects like Fire King Island, Arvata, etc. and wait for till your next turn for mass destruction. You can also fetch High Avatar Garunix directly from the deck with Onslaught of the Fire Kings.

If High Avatar Garunix is destroyed by battle, you can float into Arvata. Then when Arvata is destroyed, float into High Avatar Garunix again.

In a monster effect heavy meta, Arvata performs well in disrupting enemy plays. For example you can negate Noble Knight Medraut to stop a Noble Knight deck from performing its combo. This negation is not once per turn, and you can keep using it as long as you have monsters to destroy. The second reason this effect is so powerful is because it triggers the effects of your Fire Kings. Destroy High Avatar Garunix or Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys to prepare a zone wipe.

Arvata's floating effect is another reason why he is a good monster to have on-board. In case Arvata is destroyed, you can revive High Avatar Garunix to fall back on. Then during the opponent's End Phase, the revived High Avatar Garunix will be destroyed, preparing a monster wipe come your Standby Phase. The floating effect also comes in handy when Arvata is destroyed by your own High Avatar Garunix or Terror Incarnate, letting you replace Arvata with another body. Revive Barong so that you can search when he self destructs.

If you did not start with Fire King Island, don’t worry, you can still activate Yubel’s effect: when Yaksha is destroyed by battle or card effect and sent to the Graveyard, you can destroy a card in your hand or that you control.

Yaksha’s effect is not mandatory, so you don’t have to activate it, but you can use it to destroy High Garunix to the Graveyard and destroy monster cards respectively it’s revived by its own effect on your next turn.

You can’t activate Fire King Island’s effect unless you have a “Fire King” monster in your Deck to add to your hand. Barong has the exact same stats as Yaksha and, just like it, it can be Special Summoned from your hand when a face-up “Fire King” monster you control is destroyed by card effect.
If Barong is destroyed by card effect, you can add another “Fire King” card from your deck to your hand during the next Standby Phase, including the Field Spell. This makes Barong your most versatile searcher.

Yubel - Terror Incarnate destroys all monsters on the field, except for itself during your End Phase: which will allows you wiping out all monsters including yours like High Avatar Garunix that can be special summoned and attack directly.

The best thing about Yubel is easily the fact that, when it is destroyed by card effect, it floats into its next form, but there is to say that the “final form” is a bit underwhelming compared to the second. Sure, you can attack your opponent’s monsters, deal effect damage equal to their attack and then destroy them, but it just doesn’t compare to blowing up all monsters on the field. Still you should run at least one copy of Ultimate Nightmare to have something to fall back on when Terror Incarnate is destroyed. This also counts another search card for Yubel with the Skill My Name is Yubel.

Keep Veil in your hand until you take your first large amount of damage. Then Special Summon him to effectively nullify the damage from that attack, and getting a body on board to catch a subsequent attack. If Veil survives till your next turn, you can use it as Xyz material.

This Skill makes the deck a lot more consistent, making it easier to start your main combo. You obviously don’t want to Special Summon Terror Incarnate or Ultimate Nightmare from your hand and My Name is Yubel allows you to shuffle them back into the Deck.

Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys Special Summons itself from the Graveyard during your Standby Phase after it was destroyed by card effect, destroying all Spell/Trap Cards on the field. This will allows you to attack your opponent directly without worrying your opponent's backrow.

Since Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys is going to destroy your own Spell/Traps too, you can’t really run common Battle Traps like Wall of Disruption or even cards like Paleozoic Canadia because you run the risk of wasting them; Sphere Kuriboh is great in this deck because it’s a Hand Trap, your opponent can’t do anything about it Hey, Trunade! or Cosmic Cyclone.

Sphere Kuriboh can avoid OTKs from decks like Masked HEROes, Fur Hires and Vampires while you wait for Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys to come back.

Garunix floats into any Fire King monster except High Avatar Garunix. Most of the time you'll use this to put Arvata on the field. You also Special Summon Barong if you want an archetype-wide search effect.

Straight up Special Summons High Avatar Garunix from the deck, then destroys it to prepare for a monster wipe the next turn. The Special Summoned monster can still attack so you can use this to push damage.

Destroy High Avatar Garunix and revive Arvata. Do this at the start of the opponent's turn, preparing Arvata to disrupt their plays. When your Standby Phase comes, High Avatar Garunix is revived and Arvata is destroyed. Arvata then floats into another Fire King so you should have enough ATK on-board to OTK.
