Volcano versus Firestarters: WHO WINS?

Strategic Summary:

Welcome back for another Creative Deck Profile, and today we’re combining the DARK/Pyro Ashened theme with the FIRE Rescue-ACE archetype! I’ve covered Ashened extensively on my channel before, so if you want to see what they can do in a pure build, be sure to check out my Pure Ashened build here: https://youtu.be/mZRn5QuuWIo. Now that you’re back, there’s one primary difference: Ashened have received a few new cards of direct and indirect support. First is Chaotic Elements (YGOrg Translation), the Tistina/Ashened generic support that tutors any LV5+ DARK Pyro monster, getting you so much more consistency it is virtually unbelievable. The second support card is Inferno of the Ashened (YGOrg Translation), the first “Ashened” card that gets you direct access to Obsidim, the Ashened City with no other requirements. This Continuous Spell also sticks around, letting you swap any card on the opponent’s field with a Level 8+ DARK/Pyro from your GY, giving you yet another way to prime their field to Fusion Summon Veidos the Dragon of Endless Darkness. Where this build deviates from most Ashened builds is that it has an entire other archetype that does its own thing in parallel.

The Rescue-ACE archetype is up next, and this FIRE Machine and Warrior theme is best known for Rescue-ACE Turbulence, a Level 9 boss that sets up to 4 Rescue-ACE S/Ts into your backrow. Adding to Veidos the Eruption Dragon of Extinction’s domination over the Field Zone, CONTAIN! negates a monster’s effects, EXTINGUISH! destroys one, RESCUE! can steal a monster from the opponent’s GY, and EMERGENCY! gives you access to any Rescue-ACE monster you may need. If you happen to summon out Rescue-ACE Preventer, you also get a Quick Effect to flip an opponent’s monster face-down! All of these control elements lend itself well to the Ashened strategy of slow down the opponent enough to bomb their board, then swing for the win. Although there is one super cool interaction that comes out of mixing these two themes – you can also burn the opponent to death with Blaze Fenix, the Burning Bombardment Bird. Since this is a Pyro Fusion made with a Machine and Pyro monster, you can easily Fusion Summon this using Extinguishing the Ashened or even Ashened to Endlessness by combining an Ashened and Rescue-ACE monster. Embrace the destruction AND choose to cause more, with this combination of Ashened and Rescue-ACE monsters!
