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.

Dark Magician f2p budget version can be achieved by buying only 2 boxes; future horizon and guardians of rock with 2 circle n 2 navigation the rest from leg. duelist drop, level-up, ranked reward, card trader and event. CyDra is from 3 main boxes; future horizon with only 2 rampage dragon, warriors unite. ranked for vier (concentrating current, herald of the abyss) n cybernetic rebellion (1 cydra n 1 cytwidra). While Lunalight is only needs judgment force without reset with 2 yellow marten because 3 marten is brick most of the time.

Shinarui budget version is ok

Lulalight budget version is almost the optmized version

Blue eyes is the third F2P option, it budget version is ok

Cyber Dragon, Dark Magician, Cryston and Neos fusion are a bit expenssive

Masked hero, Elementaland Blackwing are very expenssive

Didn't think so... Wondering why their not on here now?

Aromage is not on the level of these other tiered decks though... Without backrow they can't do anything at all, they need their spell/traps EVERY turn to function. If you don't get rid of it, though, they're extremely toxic to deal with

Aromage needs a lot of continuous spell and trap cards to win. Once they are destroyed, it's dead. Also these continuous cards prevents you from using stuffs such as flood gate trap hole because of limited space in duel links.

aromage has high potential but they are too vulnerable to backrow removal. Nowsaday alsmot every deck is running Cosmic Cyclone, if your hand do not have spare backrow once they got removed, next turn you are dead.

Cyber Dragons should go to tier 2, and Elementsabers are closer to tier 1. Otherwise a good list overall for the current meta.

There's lot of stuff in old boxes that are used only to xyz summon, and cyber dragon has a xyz monster, so it will be a good deck...

But we have to see first what xyz monsters are going to be in Duel Links...

Good decks don't need a million different cards to make it work so I wouldn't. It will prolly just die soon.

Why is Neos Fusion tier 1? It hasn't won, or even got close to winning any tournament since release.

Tiers have no thing to do with tournaments. Duel links meta tiers are based on their own tournaments. This tiers represent the ladder, which I found way more useful. You see, in duel links meta nobody uses D/D/D in tournaments. However, in the ladder it's one of the most played decks.

Tier lists are only based on popularity. That's why they don't make sense at all.

The big difference is that you can reach kog with ojamas but you wouldnt win a single bo3 match in a tournament also a big amount of kog decks are very unoptimal
