When this card is sent to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent. If this card is sent to the Graveyard for the effect of a "Blaze Accelerator" card, you can send 2 "Volcanic Scattershots" from your hand / Deck to the Graveyard to destroy all monsters your opponent controls.

 

So yeah, why is this not used with the Volcanic engine...last I heard Field Nukes are in.

It isn't useful for general discards like PWWB, as Shell is, and is vulnerable to Starlight. It's an option in Volcanic engines, but I prefer Counter.

This is used in the Volcanic engine, it's the heart and soul of the engine. Free field nuke + 1500 burn is fantastic. The normal Volcanic engine is:

 

3 Volcanic Shell

3 Volcanic Scatter Shot

3 Volcanic Counter

 

Counter usually being used both for it's effect and for Debris Dragon.

In most of the builds I've seen only Shell and Counter is used.

 

BTW you only do 1000 burn because the 500 burn does not activate when used with Blaze Cannon

It's a mandatory effect to go off when it's sent to the grave, how would it's effect not be triggered when being sent to the grave via it's effect when discarded by Blaze Accelerator?

I think its the same ruling as Darkworld cards, if its a cost no burn for you.

Volcanic Engine?

[Dark_Armed_Zombie]

That makes no sense, there is NOTHING on the card that stops it from activating, the reason it doesn't work with DWs is because it says "discarded by card effect" on them and not "sent to the graveyard", I smell a rat...

I was thinking the same thing, but It even does it in the game, I dump scatter and I don't get the burn, when I used the effect for the Nuke I get the 1000....I just sum it up to Konami logic

Once again, there is absolutely nothing stopping it, I declare that an idiot judge ruled it once and Konami just sorta went "A DUR, THAT MAKE SENSE SEEM!"

 

Edit: If I ever become a judge and this ruling is questioned, I'm overruling Konami's ruling 100%. Reason? Their idiots. Got a problem with that? I don't like BKSS crap unless it was ruled this way to stop OP/FTK stuff. 1500 burn + monster nuke isn't OP.

8th time saying this, release volcanic wall already and this, and the whole volcanic archtype, will be 10 times better.... Seriously.

 

Pro tip: If its milled it still deals damage!

It's got some bizarre ruling regarding the two copies being sent for the field nuke. For some reason, those Scattershots dont count as the rightful 500 burn each. I dont understand it at all. Does it still trigger if sent from hand, field, or deck by different effects?

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

Only reason the nuke isnt in, because of this little card called Starlight Road that seems to be used by all the kids these days.

i've always wanted to run volanics..... can't seem to find anyone with them though :(

I use a Volcanic deck on YVD. Amazingly fun deck. I almost never use Scattershot's nuke effect unless desperate, though, since the deck is very good at maintaining a low count of monsters on my opponent's field. But this card is amazing in Volcanic Burn because with Tri-Blaze, it deals 1000 damage and kills a monster.
