FIRE (
FIRE monsters tend to focus on inflicting Effect damage to the opponent, a mechanic traditionally known as "Burning". In recent years, a trend among FIRE monsters is that many of them have 200 DEF.
Recent FIRE Archetypes are also fast and combo-oriented, and while they are slow at the start, they tend to build-up for huge plays that often result in One Turn Kills. They also tend to use some Anti-Meta strategies, like Graveyard manipulation, banishing and negating effects.
Archetypes include: "Volcanic", "Flamvell", "Laval", "Jurrac", "Evol", "Horus the Black Flame Dragon", "Fire Fist", "Hazy", "Fire King", "Shiranui", "Battlin' Boxer", "Infernoid", "Igknight", "Metalfoes", and "Salamangreat".
FIRE Monsters are used by Axel Brodie in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, Alito in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL and Theodore Hamilton in Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS, making it the least represented Attribute (with the exception of DIVINE) in the anime.
Supporting Cards[edit]
Notable support cards for this Attribute include "UFO Turtle", "Spiritual Fire Art - Kurenai", "Rekindling", "Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Lion Emperor", "Blaster, Dragon Ruler of Infernos" and "Sealing Ceremony of Katon".
Weaknesses[edit]
Though FIRE monsters can be extremely powerful, they tend to lack support for one another. Instead of focusing on combining and drawing on their strengths as a whole, coupled with the fact that there are few good Spell and Trap Cards to suit them than some of the other Attributes, FIRE monsters can be seen as having a negative impact on the opponent.
