Deck tier list

Tier list

Decks in Tier 1 and 2 are ones that are known to have achieved good success against other decks/players.

Meta decks

Meta decks are decks that are often commonly used by players in PvP. Meta decks will often change depending on newer cards or strategies, so we will keep updating this page often to keep everyone informed of newer decks.

Tier 0

Tier 0 decks are decks that completely dominate a meta and you either play the same deck or a deck that completely counters it (but loses to almost any other deck).

Tier 1

These decks are very well rounded. They have ways to deal with almost every deck and have very few weaknesses themselves.

Amazoness

	Cost
	Tier
	1
	Budget

Vampire

	Cost
	Tier
	1
	Expensive

Quick chart

Deck	Cost	Tier
Amazoness	Budget	1
Vampire	Expensive	1

Tier 2

Tier 2 decks have a bit more weaknesses than tier 1 decks but your opponent needs to draw them early on.

Deck	Cost	Tier
Fur Hire	Budget - Expensive	2
Masked HERO	Expensive	2

Tier 3

These decks are very strong but have either one big, or a lot of weaknesses.

Deck	Cost	Tier
Silent Magician Spellbook	Expensive	3
U.A	Expensive	3
Yubel Fire King	Expensive	3

Cyberdark is ALREADY in the meta !
another f2p deck, what do you need? drops from events and probably lvl 45 zane. Nothing else.
Don't have BEWD or FHD?, then use cyber end or Rainbow dragon. Easy. Still killer!

Can someone explain how synchro summoning works bc the internet is useless on this topic n for some reason I can figure it out? I get junk synchron on the field with any other monster and it should work right ?

Their total star level should be equal to the sychro momster you want to summon. Also, some synchro monster require particular archtype or attribute for the tuner and/or non tuner monster.

Synchro summoning requires often a tuner monster and a non-tuner monster.
You often get your non tuner on field first, then you summon your low atk Tuner monster (for example junk synchron), just after all requirements are met (both monsters on field) there would be a green glowing light around your EXTRA DECK, if you click there you'll be able to synchro summon!. That's it! easy!

If you are new a farming guide will be useful, yep, you'll make tons of gems just by leveling characters up and completing missions.

The new box is about to be release, and mark my words, soon the very same losers that kept losing to sylvans, fish, d-heroes,s amazons, furries are going to start asking for nerfs. Yes, believe me, even BLOCK ATTACK IS BROKEN FOR A TERRIBLE PLAYER, but y'know what?, it doesn't matter if they nerf the upcoming cardss, IT NEVER MATTERS because it will happen around Feb-Mar 2019, enough time to get gems and keep playing for free. Game has always been like that. That's the only fact-based reality we live in.

amazoness is annoying if you are playing a deck that has no way to get rid of onslaught, otherwise they are just another tier 1 deck, but nothing really broken.

Some dudes keep losing 24/7 meanwhile other guys just: victory against amazoness, victory against fur hires, victory against arkana and blue eyes, and actually play a tier 3 deck :D :D :D :D

Oh yeah... Alien deck...
"too expensive"... "spent all my gems there", wtf seriously?. are those guys for real?

Strange, people usually hate the most popular deck... or should I say: "Those who plan to boycott duel links always hate the most popular deck while claiming to be "the general public"(?),

Promoting hate against the most popular decks makes the boycott easy, that's how they plan to get rid of a competitor in the market and push their own game.

It has happened to Microsoft as well.
Do you Remember that: "XBOX has no games rant"?. It was created to deceive the general public and boycott Microsoft, so they can push the sales of their HUGE multinational corporations such as Sony.

Well, imo, if you are very worried about your own sales, you should focus in your own products/services, not in the product/services of your competitors. That's actually pretty lame, low and RISKY as well... doing bad things have consequences... you know.

I have been saving up gems (6925 gems to be exact) because I couldn't decide what deck to build and what cards to get. Any suggestions for fun f2p decks or overall good cards to have?

All decks are f2p
Even blue eyes cost you 3$, but BEWD aside, you can build U.A. geargia, NK, lightsworn, UNDINE, anything with gems. So, build any deck that you really enjoy playing ;), now if you want to compete... it's highly advisable to wait for the next mini box, because it's going to be META material.

Why do people still talk about fur hires and are actually "waiting patiently" for their new limitation?, does it mean they have a hard time against them and can't reach kog unleast they are out of the game? Pretty lame, Geargia is such an old deck, and I reached kog this season with it in Oct 9 =/

Because they are very bad at card games.
That's why.

fur hire was a noob detector in my humble opinion, since their release you have plenty of ways to deal with those little guys in case you "hated them" thaaaaaaaat much. For example, you could use a chalice, and enemy controler, a floodgate (very old trap), a canadia, and drystan's effect since they were released almost at the same time than NK. It was always easy.

What deck should I go for after the banlist ofc. I have 7k gems. What deck should I build?

Save more gems. 7k is not enough for any complete deck. Maybe 80% minibox deck that's all.

how many gems are needed to make a good deck? i also have 7k, and what deck what be a good choice

<< Anonymous(another)

Only open a box when you have 9999+ gems.

Main box decks could take you 16k +-
Mini box decks could take you 8k +-

Also, depends on your luck.

<< Anonymous(Anonymalakas Greek)

I've built full main box decks with exactly 10k gems, having a bit more than that is good to make sure you get everything just in case you go unlucky when opening packs.

ThunderHead latest

This game is not expensive at all.
I can't even understand why some guys keep blabbering "money", "money", "money", almost everyday... it almost looks like if someone would be trying too hard to scare people away.

Decks are easy to get, is leveling characters up a difficult thing to do? jeez guys !
