Send 1 Pyro-Type monster from your hand to the Graveyard. Select 2 monsters in your opponent's Graveyard and Special Summon them to your opponent's side of the field. (Your opponent chooses their Battle Positions).

Notable Rulings:

-N/A



What, this puts you 2 cards and gives your opponent 2, what are you thinking son?

Not something you expected huh? From hence forth, I declare Fridays "Freaky Fridays" (I know not very original). Fridays will be a day where you can explore your inner creativity and bring something new. Fridays will feature OCG (Official Card Game), CCG (Created Card Game), and others you won't expect (It might still include current cards, but it won't be what you expect). Your mission: Discuss this cards effect and how it could affect todays game, or post some interesting combos.

Yeah, I can't actually think of a use for this. Even with things like Just Desserts, it's not worth -2ing yourself.

[kyros27]

If the opponent has 2 Lava Golems in their gy with 2k (or less) LP this is a win during their standby phase I guess.

[Nanobear]

unless they use solomons law book to skip it and survive a turn then tribute for a level 6 or 8 and attack. would have to make sure your opponent has no way of coming back from that move

[kyros27]

lol b/c everyone that plans on using Lava Golems runs that card

[warrain]

Uh.... I really can't think of anything smooth with this card. I really can't think of why. The only pyro group I could think of that might relate to this is volcanic but even then not worth it. no idea. Unless you plan on stealing their monsters...

2/5 cause that's a bad cost for giving your opponent monsters.

[Nanobear]

lol of course man it always happens it should be a staple in that deck!!!!!











i hope you see my sarcasm*

And Volcanics have always sucked lol;  plus Burning Algae totally makes this card SUPER OP since you'd gain 1000 LP

Why not look at when they used it in the anime, that'll show a use for this... it's a very odd card...

[Stomach The MachoPony]

if anything reviving them should BE a Cost to do something positive for you (I.E Draw 2 then +2 them)

[kyros27]

If you have Macro Cosmos or Dimensional Fissure out, and they have monsters in the gy from before your card was active then you could use this then Dark Hole or Torrential Tribute I guess.

[Amon]

^ Except that having a mass-RFG card out stops you from being able to activate Big Volcano in the first place, according to what's in the first post.

[kyros27]

You could chain Macro Cosmos to it then.  Since sending the Pyro type monster is a cost it will get through before Macro's Effect comes into play.

[Rothon the Keymaster]

kuriburn? idk interesting though.

[Gearfried the Omnipotent]

Of course the main reason to use this is to summon your own lava golem to your opponents side of the field. You can also use this for creature swap after you destroy the monster you don't want. It can also be combined with soul extange or any other card that uses your opponent's monster as a resource in place of your own.

[Narikku]

I.. I... I honestly.... Vol...Volcanic Queen/Lava Golem?

[Ritokure]

Well, here's a not-so-terrible combo possibility for this. How you're going to use these 2 combined, I have no fracking clue. Maybe in a Remove Brainwashing deck with Lava and Grinder Golems? Huh, could work. You could also use Kuriboh LV10, but that requires 6 cards - 2 generics, Transcedent, Kuriboh, a Pyro and this thing. Hell no.

But yah, even as a combo card it just plain sucks. I mean, what was the last time you used Foolish Revival, which doesn't requires a Pyro discard? Yeah, exactly. Sure, you don't SS 2 cards, but then you could just use another Revival, because either way you lose 2.


ADV: 1/10
ART: 7/10 (The art is kinda nice, but art+effect+name combined makes little sense)
