Fire King Avatar Arvata Level 4 FIRE Beast-Warrior When a monster effect is activated while this monster is on the field (Quick Effect): You can negate the activation, and if you do, destroy 1 other FIRE monster in your hand or face-up field. If this card is destroyed and sent to the GY: You can target 1 FIRE Beast, Beast-Warrior, or Winged Beast monster in your GY, except "Fire King Avatar Arvata"; Special Summon it, but negate its effects, also destroy it during the End Phase. You can only use each effect of "Fire King Avatar Arvata" once per turn. ATK 1800 | DEF 200 |

Another nice extender, and the archetypal source of monster negation.
Both roles are very important to the strategy, as you'll often use Arvata's effect to Special Summon a Fire King from the GY in order to gather enough material for your Xyz/Link Summons.
In certain combos, it's also part of your endboard. His first effect lets you negate a monster effect once per turn, then destroy one of your FIRE monsters. This can mean you have yet another way to destroy your Amphibious Swarmship Amblowhale besides Fire King High Avatar Kirin and Promethean Princess, Bestower of Flames.
If you see it in your starting hand, it can also help you play through Nibiru, the Primal Being and protect your field, provided you get it on the field at or before the 5th summon.
We recommend running 2-3 copies.
