Fire King Avatar Yaksha Level 4 FIRE Beast-Warrior If a face-up "Fire King" monster(s) you control is destroyed by card effect (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand. If this card is destroyed and sent to the GY: You can destroy 1 card in your hand or field. You can only use this effect of "Fire King Avatar Yaksha" once per turn. ATK 1800 | DEF 200 |

Hopefully you got the hang of it - like the other Avatars, Yaksha is forced to deal with the consequences of the Green Baboon ruling. Thus, this card's first effect will compete for attention with other Fire Kings that have the same effect, meaning you'll rarely end up using it.
Sadly, the second effect is also not enough - nowadays we usually want our card effects to destroy and do something else, not just destroy, meaning Yaksha very rarely finds a place in modern Fire King decklists.
Don't get me wrong - it can sometimes be useful, but it's just that most of the time you will not make use of Yaksha at all, instead wishing he was literally any other card in your deck.
Fingers crossed we get a retrain someday, because he looks too cool to gather dust with the rest of your bulk. :(
We don't recommend running any copies of this card.
