Yugipedia:Featured Card/Fire Formation - Tenki
With the March 1, 2013 format upon us, one of the pivotal cards of the format is likely to be "Fire Formation - Tenki". "Fire Formation - Tenki" allows you to add 1 Level 4 or lower Beast-Warrior-Type monster from your Deck to your hand, and then it gives all Beast-Warriors on your side of the field an extra 100 ATK. "Tenki" is widely reminiscent of the popular "Reinforcement of the Army", though with the drawback that only 1 "Tenki" can be used per turn.
Not only does "Tenki" search out key "Fire Fist" monsters like "Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Gorilla" and "Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Bear", it also searches out important monsters such as "Constellar Kaus" in "Constellar" Decks, "Gladiator Beast Laquari" or "Gladiator Beast Darius" in "Gladiator Beast" Decks, "Wind-Up Rabbit" in any Deck that uses it, and key "Fire King" monsters such as "Fire King Avatar Yaksha" and "Fire King Avatar Barong". Less prominent Decks also gain a boost from "Fire Formation - Tenki"; the card single-handedly makes a Deck based around "Koa'ki Meiru Urnight" and "Koa'ki Meiru Crusader" consistent. In the past, such Decks might have needed to rely on something like "M-X-Saber Invoker" to consistently get to "Urknight" early in the game, but that is no longer the case. You can even search out "Vorse Raider" and use the 100 ATK boost to have a legal target for "Deck Devastation Virus".
"Fire Formation - Tenki" is worth experimenting with, so grab a couple of copies and start testing it out.
