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

	Cost
	Tier
	1
	Expensive

Quick chart

Tier 2

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

Infernoid

Yikes to FH users. I feel kinda bad for them tbh. I don't think it's that hard to counter FH. Konami don't have to nerf them to the ground.
To those who are butthurt over FH decks pre-patch, grow a brain maybe?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ok so 1 tier 1?. this page really knows how tier list works?. there can't be a unique tier 1, that makes it tier 0 technically, or blue eyes are tier 1 too, i'm not a fan of them, but technically they have to make 2 tier 1. or make vampires tier 0 and the rest tier 1.

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

Tier 0 is if there are only a few or even nothing that can counter it, there are many specific cards or decks that can counter vampire

You can't be serious

Really boasting deck diversity, huh Konami...? There's never been a better time to quit this terrible game

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!

Just watched one vid in youtube featuring that deck, it's actually ver, very decent in the current meta. Wow!

Cyber end is machine tho. Just use whatever dragon fusion or synchro you have (twin-headed thunder dragon is the easiest to obtain)

Good 2 see bastion again !

Fatal Five

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.

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?

Game has never been expensive.

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.

AdrianDark Reply

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.

Only a few believed fur hire was broken, too op etc. I never really cared since I've won lost of matches against them with a Yubel deck

Cause some guys are really bad at this game and keep losing to all decks, yep, to all of 'em

the tier 3 list makes no sense now?

only vampires being tier 1 seems right

the tier 2 decks also makes sense

tier 3 decks are another story! post nerf amazoness is better and furhire,UAs aren't that good after the cyber style nerf.

It should be :
fire king yubel
noble knights
post nerf amazoness (possibly)

I don’t think that Amazoness are playable considering how popular the Cosmic cyclone is

Also Masked heroes to Tier 1

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

Amazoness were tier 2 when comsmic cyclone was popular so it's not a big deal for them and now they can run more traps than ever, Amazoness sowrdwomen in that deck are still devistating, imagine ypyu facing Amazoness player and they opened up with one of the 2 princesses or onslaught! And you don't have cosmic cyclone in deck = the same oppressive Amazoness deck

<< Anonymous

Anonymous Reply

2 princesses and 1 onslaught for Amazoness is more consistent and way better than 2 donpa, 1 wiz and one donpa or 2 wiz.
Now you can only run 12 furhire monsters with 3 recon so the chance of bricking is pretty high as furhires need each other to function well but Amazoness just need any number of monsters and bunch of backrows to function

Let's look into matchups( furhire vs Amazoness)
Vamipres: furhires are known to be bad against vamipres even before the banlist
BEWD: furhire can't deal with big monsters anymore
Buster bladder: Amazoness onslaught + sowrdwomen are soild options
Heros: heros don't deel with backrows efficiently
Yubel: furhires are better here
