Temple Of Kings Deck Introduction（王家の神殿(リシド） covers how the Temple Of Kings strategy actually plays: what the engine searches, how boards are built, and which cards matter most in current formats.
Deck identity
Temple Of Kings is built around Synchro climbing and mid-combo follow-ups. The core loop is to convert early searches and extends into a resilient board, then use follow-up to punish overextension.
This overview is especially useful for duelists learning the deck’s starter ratios before optimizing tech choices.
Key cards to know
Priority names in most Temple Of Kings lists include Owner's Seal, Judgment of Anubis, Temple of the Kings, Defense of the Temple, Dangers of the Divine, and Apophis the Serpent. Study their search/extend timing first—tech cards only matter after the engine is consistent.
Additional pieces often seen in sample lists: Curse of Anubis, Verdict of Anubis.
Build notes
A practical Temple Of Kings build usually keeps a dense engine package, enough extenders to play through one interruption, and a flexible non-engine slot for hand traps or board breakers depending on the expected metagame.
When testing, track which starters are brick-prone and which extenders are redundant. Cut low-impact one-ofs before cutting engine density.
How to practice
Solo combo until you can sequence the main line without hesitation, then practice interrupted lines (Ash, Imperm, Nibiru windows). After that, tune ratios for your local or Master Duel ladder meta.
