The Crimson King Structure Deck

Every good driver needs the perfect pit crew to back them up, and three new Main Deck monsters will help you Synchro Summon Jack's signature Dragons! Assemble your plays with two new "Resonator" monsters: the first is a Level 2 Tuner you can Special Summon from your hand with a Level 5 or higher DARK monster on the field; when it's sent to the Graveyard, you can add a Spell or Trap Card from your Deck to your hand that mentions "Red Dragon Archfiend." The second new "Resonator" monster is a Level 3 Tuner, and when you Normal or Special Summon it, you can search your Deck for a Level 4 or lower Fiend and add it to your hand. Then, if a card effect would destroy a card you control, and you control Red Dragon Archfiend or a Synchro Monster that mentions it, you can banish this Resonator from your Graveyard to protect your card. Make a Synchro Summon and keep your monsters safe to drive home your advantage! Finally, a new "Archfiend" offers an easy Level 4 Special Summon to fuel your Synchro Summons, loading your Graveyard and shifting Levels to help you unleash the right "Red Dragon" monster for the job!

Fuel up with new Spell Cards! Get ready to go from 0 to 60 with a new Continuous Spell: during your Main Phase, it adds a Red Dragon Archfiend or any card that mentions it from your Deck to your hand. Then, when your Red Dragon Archfiend attacks, you can Set all your opponent's monsters. Finally, if a monster on the field's destroyed, you'll Special Summon a Red Dragon Archfiend from your Graveyard…even if the destroyed monster belonged to your opponent! The signature Absolute Powerforce arrives as a Quick-Play Spell Card! Target a Red Dragon Archfiend you control, attack a monster, and shift into high gear with 4 effects: boost your attacker by 1000 ATK; stall your opponent from activating cards or effects; thread the needle with piercing damage; and take your place in the winner's circle by doubling the battle damage!

Add to your arsenal with two new Trap Cards! The first works with Jack's classic Fiendish Chain: target a monster with 2000+ ATK and banish it until the End Phase of the next turn. If you activate it while you control Red Dragon Archfiend or a Synchro Monster that mentions it, you can Set a Fiendish Chain from your Deck or Graveyard to your field! It's an awesome way to pump the brakes on your opponent. Then when your opponent activates a card or effect and you control Red Dragon Archfiend, a new Continuous Trap destroys your opponent's cards. You can even use it to bring back your banished DARK Dragon Synchro Monsters! Add all 4 of these Spells and Traps with the new Level 3 "Resonator" monster.
