GNCellBeatdownSept 4
♦ GNCell:
The meta is now either tracherous traphole or trunade. Each can put two copy in mask hero architype as this architype drawing mechanism is quite fast. I tend to put 1 tracherous traphole and i am stuck in dlv 18. After i put two tracherous traphole, i manange to get 8 streak win to dlv max.

Halosphere - Fur Hire

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
HalosphereSuprise PresentSept 6
♦ Halosphere:
This fur hire build is meant for jam breeding machine using surprise gift to opponents field. This not only takes up their field space, so they have to destroy or risk activation.

Upon activation it prevents opponents from summoning monsters but can set monsters. This crippled many decks currently in meta. Using fur hire wiz it’s important to have 1-2 on field to negate spells from removing jam breeding machine. At this point you only attack the slime token which will be summoned in attack mode for win.

Iliyan98 - Fur Hire

Iliyan98The Tie that BindsAug 31
♦ Iliyan98:
The hardest matchups were against Amazoness, U.A. and Fur Hires. The mirror match is very hard and lucky based. Most of the time if no one has Donpa or is able to play it, the match prolongs to a deck out because Wiz in defence mode is very hard to kill. To win without decking out you have to wait to get at least two cards from: Forbidden chalice, TTH and Super Rush Headlong and also to be ready to OTK. Sometimes when you ran out of some of these resources you can try to bait the Wiz negation with Hey, trunade. Sphere Kuriboh and Super Rush Headlong are the suprise elements and very useful in most matches (against Amazoness, U. A. and Masked Heroes).

LarsstenDraw Sense: Low LevelSept 7
♦ Larssten:
I used the skill draw low level because i’ve often found myself in situations where I need a destiny hero to provide defense or be able to counterattack, but due to its composition the draws have been high level monsters or spell/trap cards not usable in a certain situation (I.e. mask change without a hero on the field). Most of the time the various traps have been able to hinder my opponents quite well, but not every time.

LuloGggetaThe Tie that BindsSept 8
♦ LuloGggeta:
Instead of using bleed traps such as simultanneous loss, this build is a basic OTK focused version. I tested the Cyber Style version with BLSoldier which is pretty good, however Ties version allowed me to fish for way more OTKs which is specially important against the current meta. Fur hires matchup is mostly a coin toss and you'll need to Grace or Scarlet with another monster to deal with Wiz, but besides that is very winnable. In general, TT Hole and Trunade are just too good to not be used, 1 copy of ECon is brutal against U.A and Fur Hire. This deck requires a lot of combo planning, a good amount of practice, and it is hard to master, but totally worth it.

Luxun - U.A

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
LuxunCyber StyleAug 30
♦ Luxun:
Since I don't have 3 midfielders and 3 stadiums, I had to put some support cards like the Thunder Vassal (I won my last match thanks to it) it is perfect in this deck and greatly helps you disrupt fur because they need three slots if they are counting on beat's effect. Jinzo won many matches for me, I would never take him away. Sphere kuriboh is more useful than spells and traps in a meta full of backrow removal. Expensive deck, but totally worth it

Lyst - Anti Meta

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
LystThree-Star DemotionSept 9
♦ Lyst:
Anti meta deck. Cipher soldier is strong against Beat, Amazoness, Masked Hero, Noble Knights and UA. Suijin in combination with 3SD should be predictable, but it won me so many games. And even if they know, it's still a good stall card. Spike Shield on either of them is often enough to OTK. You can also use it on the Lava Golem and attack with your Swords Woman into it. Forbidden Chalice can be used to stop effects in general, but it's mainly to counter a possible enemy Swords Woman. Sphere Kuriboh to stop Hey Trunade plays and CC to counter SSA.
21 cards because you don't want to be forced into attacking. Just sit back and let the opponent destroy himself.

Pduque13The Tie that BindsSept 3
♦ Pduque13:
I use The Tie that Binds instead of Beatdown to OTK without high-level monsters. Offerings to the Doomed works very well in this deck. It can prevent you from OTK or help you to OTK, but use it wisely since you won't draw in your next turn!

I just got Level Max with only two wins in a row, however that only happened after winning a lot and only losing my promotion matches. Maybe the game makes someme kind of calculation among wins and loses to let you climb without winning 5 matches in a row

let's say u had 4 wons in a row and lose your 5th match, if after that match you lost you win 2 in a row, you get promoted. :)

Seriously? 8 win streak (3 while in dlv18 and 5 while in dlv19), still didn’t reach dlv max yet, but most of the are winning by enemy surrender.

Some terrible players just ask for nerfs all the time, they want all decks nerf´d.
====================
But if a nerf really happens, they will say: ``oh they nerf decks because they want you to buy more, it's a cash grabber``.
----------------
How they never pay attention to the demans of those jerks who pretend to be players.

Also for those of you who don't know, chaining Typhoon/Wild Tornado/Twister/Double Cyclone/Cosmic Cyclone/Dust Tornado to the activation of SSA destroys it

Obviously cyclone banishes and is irrelevant to my point of destroying SSA before it protects itself so ignore that

This KC Cup is really messed. The RNG is wack in this game and possibly rigged. Also Dlv. 19 should be 3 wins and you move on not 5. Konami has a lot of work to do.

If i were you, i would spend that $ 50 in Duel Links to buy Tier 1 deck.

I don't think Amazoness are op, but yeah you guys are pretty much right about this: ``When a deck is meta for too long even after new boxes`` the deck is likely to be touched, yep. But it's done just to promote deck diversity, one the other hand I really disagree with the ban of onslaught, the card that SHOULD be limited is amazoness princess.
---Princess limited to 2
---Econ limited to 2

I say Onslaught @ 1 would be enough. Princess is really only good now for that +1, her second effect isn't as useful as it used to be with Baby Tiger...so it should be fine @ 3 as long as Onslaught goes to 1. E-Con should also be limited since it's still a game stealer (basically the same reason Brain Control was banned in TCG).

I made it to Stage 2 with Tea Amazoness. *.* If I remember it correctly, normally you would need 3 wins at dlvl 20 to join stage 2, but I could play already for DP. Is this some change or was it because I was Stage 2 in the last KC Cup? Or did they just remove 'win 3 games in a row to join stage 2 while being dlvl 20'?

Yeah, I was 2 victories away from reaching DLV MAX and my last opponent was some jerk who just spend the whole duel wasting time, doing nothing, taking minutes to even draw. By the time I finally defeated the KC Cup was over, now I can't even report the prick for wasting time just to troll with people.
