Core Combos and Interactions

Boss Monsters

	Teardrop the Rikka Queen
	Once Teardrop the Rikka Queen has a Plant-type monsters attached to it as material, its ability to Tribute a monster from either side of the field becomes a Quick Effect. This can safely bypass trigger effects that specify they have to be destroyed to activate them.
	Sacred Tree Beast, Hyperyton
	A little help from Rikka Queen Strenna can get Sacred Tree Beast, Hyperyton onto the field despite not having a Level 9 Monster anywhere in the Deck Recipe. It can claim one card of each type into itself as material, and use it to negate the activation of the same card once per turn, once per card type.
	Ragnaraika Chain Coils
	The crucial Ragnaraika card you need to get to as soon as possible, as one of Ragnaraika Chain Coils's effects can effectively deal with hand traps and effects that trigger from the hand. It can Special Summon itself from the GY, as the card it shuffles back from the Deck also include Plant-type monsters.
	Benghalancer the Resurgent
	One of the typical boss monsters to run in a Rikka Sunavalon Deck, and this Ragnaraika variant is no different. Benghalancer the Resurgent can bounce back a monster to the hand by taking damage equal to the targeted monster's ATK. It can also Special Summon itself

Best Decks to Use Against Rikka Ragnaraika

Tearlaments

All that matters for a Tearlaments Deck is to have their key monsters be sent to the Graveyard--and that includes Rikka's way of tributing monsters. Any variant of the Tearlaments Deck will greatly appreciate having their cards sent to the GY, and trigger multiple effects one after another because of it.

Purrely

Purrely Decks often end with only one monster on the field, but it is one of the most immovable monsters out there: Expurrely Noir. It cannot be affected by any activated card effect so long as has 5 or more materials to it, and its ability to spin cards back to the Deck becomes a Quick Effect while it has a Level 1 "Purrely" monster attached to it.

Rescue-ACE

A normal Rescue-ACE combo has them setting up to 4 Spells and Traps on their turn, allowing them to interrupt any play as much as they can. What makes this Deck even more dangerous is the fact that it is currently splashable against the Snake-Eyes Deck Engine in lieu of this Deck being predominantly FIRE Attribute.

Best Cards to Tech Against Rikka Ragnaraika

	Droll & Lock Bird
	Rikka Decks need quite a lot of searching to get certain key cards ready on hand. Droll & Lock Bird deals with them for the rest of the turn by preventing any further addition to the hand for the rest of the turn, and can even stop the resolution of Maxx "C"'s effects!
	Summon Limit
	Despite being a Control Deck, a Rikka Deck has a rather powerful combo that almost always guarantees full combo so long as they can keep coming back to Loci and Dryas. Summon Limit bottlenecks all type of summons to just two overall summons in a turn, effectively stopping the combo power of this Deck.
	Thunder Dragon Colossus
	An alternative to Droll & Lock Bird if players can slot in a Thunder-type monster or play a Thunder Dragon Deck, Thunder Dragon Colossus acts as a floodgate. While present on the field, the only way to add cards to the hand is by drawing them.
	Skill Drain
	While Skill Drain is face-up and active on the field, all monsters on the field will have their effects negated. The "Rikka" monsters cannot bypass this effect unless they somehow get their respective monsters off the field by the time the effect resolves.
