Zero Kindled Wrath
PrereleaseEffect-immune Phantom Shinobi, Shurra pings, and instant Kindled Wrath burn.
Zero Kindled Wrath
Fire used to do almost nothing on the opponent's turn, and then Fractured Domains gave me Kindled Wrath! I swarm early with 18 one-cost bodies and Battle Tempo, Shurra, hold 2 IKZ open to fry attackers or burn face at Response speed, and close with untouchable Phantom Shinobi. Big W.
Deck
Game plan
Early turns
I open fast with Cinderwake Seer, The Calm Assassin, Off-Duty Shinobi and Fanatic Kindler while Glass Blower, Hokuto searches up burn.
Middle turns
Battle Tempo, Shurra and Cinderwake Ritualist pile on extra pings while Omen Peddler, played into my Alley, zaps a blocker in their Garden. Leave 2 IKZ up for Kindled Wrath on their turn!
Closing
Phantom Shinobi charges in for 3 and literally cannot be damaged or destroyed by Wrong Step or Lightning Orb. Scarlett, Collateral Burst, Detonation Pact and Fire Orb finish.
Mulligan
I keep two 1-cost bodies alongside Battle Tempo, Shurra or Glass Blower, Hokuto. Send back hands with zero 1-drop entities.
Key cards
2 IKZ Response: pay 1 life to deal up to 2 to a leader or enemy entity — stops 2-health attackers cold or finishes their leader on THEIR turn!
3/1 Charge ninja that card effects cannot damage or destroy. Damage and destroy Responses do nothing to him, though a bounce like Water Prison still works.
1/2 body that survives 1-damage pings and can add 1 extra damage once a turn when it hits their leader.
Once a turn, turns Zero's self-ping or Collateral Burst into bonus damage on their side.
Played into my Alley, it snipes a 2-health blocker in their Garden so my early swarm keeps connecting.
Tips
- Kindled Wrath has the Scorchweaver subtype, so Glass Blower, Hokuto can grab it right off the top 5!
- Portal Cinderwake Ritualist (Gate Power 2) through Ragefire Gate to pump a hurt Cinderwake Seer by +2.
- Keep an eye on your own health before firing Zero's ping, Detonation Pact, Kindled Wrath and Fire Orb in the same game.
