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.

Tier 2

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

I somehow had 1900 gems when I logged back in for the first time after a while and saw that sylvans were a thing, I opened all of the plant pack thingies and got most of the deck and now im just farming wins :) sylvans are too good

Why is there no chaos dragons anywhere on this list I mean I get that they aren’t quite top tier but they should at least get rep

How can you say there are no Tier 0 decks when Sylvans absolutely dominate the ladder?

The only real Tier 0 deck was CA with 3 Dakini and 3 ritual.
Sylvans are a joke compared to the old CA

Why is geargia listed as budget? It costs 3 ties of the brethren to make it optimal

Wait so people don't even consider Toon decks any tier anymore? Lol not even a "other"? Kinda offended now

You're offended because a website doesn't categorize a series of cards in a recreational app on a smartphone in a hierarchical list?

Sounds like a you problem.

And remember, Sylvans just counter other Sylvans. They're contradicting and it's kind've funny, but also sad.

Sylvans V. Sylvans, every other tournament Ever. Why people? Why use something so pathetic that isn't strong? Only Rose Lover makes the deck run reality. That much better. Special summon from grave a plant monster and the card with be unaffected by trap cards when done. Over power the deck with Rose Lover and then, you're "guaranteed" a 'win'. It's honestly not that fun is it? Sylvans is really the definition of 'cuc', anyone who plays it would be considerably a cuccer. It's Great. Great game, tbh, terrific and so much fun. Same strat over and over again, that is how Sylvans work. Depending on what you draw and what you discard, sure, you could be considered a "guaranteed" win but you won't be having fun or trust in your cards. You're only disrespecting the game with the strategy you're using because, you're only following what you think is good. And what you think is considerably "good" is gonna Cuc over someone that is trying to have a fun game. My reason would be, help out the other players having fun and don't Cuc anymore. Be more original than what everyone is being. It all starts with someone.

They even delete Valencia's innocent posts, and wiped out a whole thread of Marik fanpost in the Upcoming Events section. They also bombed all dolphin-posts, some of them were not offensive though. If it's a program sure, you can just put keystrings like "Dr. Keke Odin" and the likes, but still see the remnants of that overabused spam, so no it's not a program.

This game is so DRAMATIC. Losed a bunch of duels against ssa, geargia, ca, masked hero and felt like I already missed sylvan. Next 10 duels were sylvan decks lol. And now I wish this deck should be disappeared...again.

Tier 3 Description: "... an example of this is ancient gears"

Has ancient gears listed as tier 4. UPDATE YOUR TEXT.

GameA ratings is a joke, putting together SSA and ALien ON THE SAME TIER, unbelievable. Even a Whale-centric SSA can easily defeat Sylvans! Because of these tier-systems and ratings GAmeA lost all the credibility for me. Can't believe they're fcking this up so badly.

Don't complain Reply
If you have enough skills and experience to verify their rating, then you shouldn't read their rating at all.

I only came here looking for info like certain LD's deck, new deck ideas, constructive comments, etc.

yeah its wrong ssa shouldn't be the same tier as aliens. it should be 2 tiers below. the deck is trash now. loses to sylvans, mask change and geargia - the top 3 so yeah kind of useless. and yeah wahle-centric is the best ssa deck and still sucks
