Deck tier list [Post-Banlist Prediction]

NOTES

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

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).

There are currently no Tier 0 decks

Tier 1

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

The Phantom Knights

Tier 2

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

Infernoid

Aromage is a really easy way to get KOG you don't even need any fancy backrow, it beats all that fancy expensive stuff like a drum and its as free as they come :D

You can find them in the gate. If they were not in the gate, you have to unlock them first.

Koaki is tier 1. i just reach kog in no time with a 80% win ratio, i've just did with a random build i made because i don't have every card (only 1 sandman lol). the only deck that really make me thought and countered me a lot (even winning me) was silent spellbook. but nothing that koaki ice can't afford (if you manage to use a hey trunade before fates).

Glad this deck is not annoying as sylvans were, I bet when people lost to those veggies they got 🔥 because they didn't like to be defeated by funny looking monsters LOL. So they raged hard. It seems like artwork matters a lot ! at least here in the west.

Same thing happened with Naturia and Wood-boy. Furries were cute though, or because most of the playerbase hate felines because they're dog lovers, like how they shove their muzzlers on Konami's 🔥

Man... them koakis are just plain invincible,with the way konami are going they should just release a quick-play spell card that cannot be negated and activates exsodias effect and sell it of say 50$ a copy

They would be more than happy to but they know it would 🔥 the game and they wanna milk it for as much as possible plus a little more before killing it of like they done with the one before

50$ is pretty cheap

Do not you need 150$ to open the box completely?

Next step: release a card that totally counter this deck for another 50$

That my good sir is exactly the way konami are thinking only in a less obvious way

Should older decks like Sylvans have their cards removed off the ban list now that there are other more powerful decks out there?

They will only unban it if it brings profit.

Looks like new decks are selling well.
