Deck tier list

NOTES

The GameA Tier List is primarily based on King of Games decks submitted by users.

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).

No deck can currently be classified as Tier 0

Tier 1

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

Blue-Eyes Synchro

Darklord (Star Seraph)

Quick chart

Deck	Cost	Tier
Blue-Eyes Synchro	Expensive	1
Darklord (Star Seraph)	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.

Fire King

Fire King tier 2 seriously? Also water xyz down to tier 3? I thought water xyz was better than fire king due to abyss dweller can shut down the big garunix.

That is true but if you look at the bigger picture fire kings has more favorable matchups against meta decks than water xyz does.

Guys, I think Blue-Eyes might get nerfed.

Not as long as they have scapegoats like Hang on Mach. I'd personally love to see Karma and Stone hit to 2. The deck would probably just drop Karma for Hallowed, but at least I could stop having my monsters get banished as soon as I summon them.

Ran into a blue-eyes player the other day who Karma'd 2 Duza as soon as summoned, but decided to let me keep Vijam. I proceeded to smack them with Gundil

I would prefer to see Consonance & Spirit Dragon both at limit 3.

I'd take all broken discard traps and all cards like spectralsword, white stone, etc. to 3

Blue eyes will most likely see cards on consonance and stone at limit 3 or even 2. Thats more than enough.
Although personally I never have problem dealing with then. Darklord seraphs are way more broken. Also bewd are f2p and fun favorite.
Atm level augmentation/dublication should be nerfed to stop the virus called hang on mach.

The reason for side deck format because he lost worlds multiple times and trying to throw a hissy fit at Konami by luring everyone to his tourny. Rather than suck up his multiple losses, he would rather challenge Konami by stealing Konami's customers even though this game is own by them.

The Sr Trap isnt a must at 1 or 2 but without their their N and R Spells and Traps just brick and cant recover / recycle properly.

Anonymous 12days ago

Darklords even with 3 cards on banlist are still one the best decks. I still remember the time when they where unlimited aka darlord era format. A big mistake of konami releasing them so soon.

it cant be last until end phase the skill was used (until opponent end phase) is appropriate. and this skill can be used once per duel should be remake twice per duel

change:-
last until opponent end phases
twice per duel

or you prefer unchanged

like currently

I'll keep saying it all the op traps that discard should be in limit 3 together with all the cards that like to being discarded

The discard is supposed to be a high price to pay not an advantage

<< Anonymous

It's not that the traps themselves are obnoxious, but being combined with a free summon from the deck, which is often Spirit of White, is absolutely infuriating since you just lost two cards to give them a "free" summon. I've had games where I lost a monster and they summoned two Spirit of White at the end. Triple Stone of Ancients with Triple CoC and Karma in the same deck is absolutely brutal.

The only mistake was gave them a card who can search ANY darklord.

Darklord with star seraph tier 1. OK. There must be an error. Yosenju are definitely better.
