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 may have copied 90%-100% of someone else's deck, I may follow other people's instructions on how to use them, I may be part of the 🔥 hordes using the same tryhard meta decks someone else made for them, but my wins are pure skill!" - Duellinks players.

High tier duels are only between the current tier 1 and some statistical anomalies how can you argue that there's no skill involved?

CA is tier 2 now.

Darth Reply
Yes, tier 2.
CA for a long time will figure between tier 1 and tier 2 depending on the meta-game. Sylvan, made geargia and Masked very strong, and both decks are great for dealing with CA.
And it's not the first time that "CAffira" falls to tier 2. It will always be among the best decks for a long time yet.

SSA does not return to the meta-game while Sylvan is dominant.
Archfiend is tier 3 for me

I totally agree with you. Champion's vigilance would balance the game a little more and return normal monsters like BEWD to the meta.

I didn't build a SSA deck (I was focused on a Saffira deck instead) but I feel very sorry for those who spent time and gems trying to get all the necessary cards to a SSA deck just to see a minibox completely wrack the meta few weeks later

Ssa and archfiend are tier 1

Sylvan ez countered by Necrovalley

Rebel Reply
not by Necrovalley itself . But if they ever release gravekeeper's Shaman & Heretic + Necrovalley ...i guess we could make a strong deck that counters Sylvan

My favorite Deck since day 1 was Gravekeepers .It hurts that they are "dead" for so many months

I noticed it's getting harder and harder to keep up with the ever changing meta. I've managed to save up 8,000 for the upcoming mini box, but honestly at this point, I think it would be better to start teching cards to keep up, rather than splurge on new archtypes.
Yami Dovah
For me, Archfiend is tier 1, Fire fist Hazy, aromage and amazoness are tier 2. Who agree?

Once the 1st turn face down card is countered. THE TYPICAL SILVAN PLAYER SURRENDERS AND LEAVE! Lol. Only fools are intimidated/ impressed by them.

Hahah just kicked some plant's butt and the opponent surrendered. That's soooo lame, surrendering should be prohibited at tournaments, so, NO SORE LOSERS ALLOWED LOL
Hey untalented!
Instead of balaming konami for your own lack of skill, why dont you use flying fish you bunch of "genius" pro players? You claim to be offended "older duelists" which you are not. You are the typical complainers that are present in ANY GAME.

Instead of investing on sylvans, you just need oyster + flying + powerful rebirth. Thats way cheaper. If you add SSa you are already inside kc 2nd stage.

Ive seen korean kog players running a f2p deck to d3stroy sylvans, CA WITHOUT SAFFIRA BUT WITH VENNU, Just add master of rites ll as skill and also an 'end of contract spell'. The only expensive cards were the senjus and perhaps 2 Hey trunade. To any1 reading this...! INVEST IN 2 HEY TRUNADE INSTEAD OF 3 red MUSHROOM SYLVAN. You wont regret it and youllbe inside kc.

Yea I run REZ and run over Sylvans and Cyber Angels all day. Cyber Angels being tier 1 and REZ being tier 2 is a joke.
