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.

Tier 2

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

Here is the thing about this game though... If you want to climb ladder in pvp expect to see meta decks all over the place. And if you want to play it fun and not competitively just enjoy the game offline and enjoy. I hate the fact that everyone complains about seeing same decks all the time well thats just how the cookie crumbles in Yugioh since the very beginning of its creation so deal with it.

I understand that this game has a meta. But this game is seriously not fun anymore. I forefit more than half my duels cause it's the same 🔥 that I don't stand a chance of winning against like they need to change pvp and have a separate ladder for top meta tryhards and people who want to have fun.

Lol I regret making legend first day. Now I have a month of red eyes and cyber angels on repeat loop. No skill what so ever.

Every game dakini vs dakini hahahaha fun is at an all time low. I don't understand why ritual cage doesn't protect dakini against dakini effect tho.

It's all in the wording: Dakini's effect does not target, nor does it destroy.

Just the ultimate effects monster. That ritual cage is basically worthless

Phoenix is 8.7? I don't think so. Most of the list in tier 1 I agree with exception of Phoenix, Naturia and whatever is that Anti Meta beatdown with NMCR (why use random cards when you have psychics?)

I don't get why ppl complain seeing red eyes, ninjas, toons, phoenix, cyber angels, ojamas, etc.

Be grateful that there are WAY more meta deck variants than friggin TCG, which was only consists of very few archetypes (especially zoo before hit, now it's spyrals and true draco bc master peace and diagram escaped the hit for idk reason)

Its not about winning every time that they complained. Its the obvious feeling that game balance have been off, when opponents played meta. The feeling of injustice despite good play.

I agree. It's not just about losing Everytime this game has become so unbalanced since they added decks like toon kingdom red eyes and ninjas, and now cyber angels. Are there cards to counter them? Yes but it's only a couple of cards that you have to end up starting out with in a deck of at least 20 cards. So chances are you cant draw your counter cards at the start and you'll end up losing right

Honestly you can't compare this to the tcg at all. The tcg has so many more components in decks and also shares a lot of strong monsters between decks cause they have synchros, fusions, xyz and pendulum where as in duel links we only get 3 monster zones and spell and trap zones max 30 card decks and a very limited card pool compared to the years of cards that the tcg has.

Yes many of these people may have understood game balance problem, but alot of them simply don't care. They just wanna whatever meta available to win it all, its really downhill mentality sadly.

Someone post a elemental hero deck so i can compare to mine screenshot of mine if asked
