A comment from カオス・Mask25:

How my deck works: Magic Jammer negates spell cards like Neos Fusion and Ancient Rules and summons Magician of Dark Illusion. Treacherous Trap Hole destroys Blue Eyes monsters, makes Yubel - Terror Incarnate miss timing and summons Magician of Dark Illusion. Dark Magic Curtain is my main card because it activates the Master of Magicians skill. And Dedication through Light and Darkness summons Dark Magician of Chaos during the battle phase to end the duel.

Dino Survival's End

A comment from Xeoz:

The classic Dino's end deck, Marrella works really well to accelerate the deck. Canadia and ECon are the Best defense, meanwhile Survival's end is an awesome removal and Ryko is really good counter to something like Sealed Tombs and Skull Meister.

No problem against most decks, the biggest issue is Blue Eyes, mainly because of Spirit, but after surpassing that issue there's no real problem.

A comment from LDRAGO:

This deck is mainly built for OTK scenarios. Keep the splashable stall cards ready just to save yourself incase you lack the combo. It shines against most decks but struggles against subterror in case you do not have koaki meiru ice.

A comment from hiro:

I used my own version of the Koa'ki Meiru Neo deck to get to DLV max with lava golem as a backup. The premise of the deck is to overwhelm your opponent with high leveled monster along with the skill beatdown to win the game. For a while, I used a red-eyes fusion deck but I kind of feel that it wouldn’t get me to the max level as this deck does.

A comment from Nutella:

I found this deck to be very good in the current meta paired with the switcheroo. Koaki Meiru Ice is awesome against blue eyes and Six Sams, especially if you cyclone duel wield.

Cosmic Cyclone is a card that cannot really be run in many meta decks at the moment but is very useful against most of them. You really need 3 to run this deck unfortunately but you could use galaxy cyclone as a replacement if you have to.

A comment from Fox Tails:

This is the deck I climbed with throughout all of the WCS Qualifiers. A lot of Six Samurai, Blue-Eyes, Red-Eyes and Weevil players running around.

This deck favours heavily against Red-Eyes duel to Daedalus not targeting nor destroying, so Red-Eyes cannot negate or special summon the warrior equipped to it back.

Against Blue-Eyes, if I see the character is a "Beatdown" user and sets a monster, I don't attack and just let Metaphys Dimension deal with any White Stone of Ancients. Set it up by using Metaphys Neph to search it out.

Against Weevil you out control them, play their own game against them by banishing constantly with Neph and Dimension.

Against Six Samurai it can be a little tricky, if they go first and open with Shi-En, your only out is to have Aloof in hand. If you do, you can easily get rid of that Shi-En by banishing Tyrant and Neph, search out Daedalus and banish their Shi-En.

Sphere Kuribohs and Treacherous Trap Hole are there for defense as this deck lacks a lot of it. You want to dig through your deck with Asymmetaphys to try and find these. I would run 2 Metaphys Dimension if I owned a second copy, possibly taking out 1 Sphere Kuriboh for it.

A comment from SheepVSC:

This deck is very consistent with the Heavy Starter skill. I focused on cards that could banish as many monsters as possibles from the hand and deck.

I used the pattern of Metaphys effects: banish, end my turn, use the effects, catch as soon as possible the trap and begin to banish as much of my and of opponent cards

A comment from Zane:

Self explanatory, Sazank to send monsters to grave on flip, avoiding destroyed trigger affects.

Lava Golem disrupting field and 1000 damage every turn.

Cipher for 6 Sam matchups. Neos high attack good protection to stall burn from Lava Golem, and to send Bacon Saver for protection, or A/D Changer for position change.

EHeroAndrewNeo Space!June 3

A comment from EHeroAndrew:

This Neo Space deck is really fun and can actually be very destructive if you play it right. The best way to utilize the deck is to use Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin’s hand destruction Effect to not only drain your opponent’s hand on your first turn but also do some burning damage too. With the “Neo Space!” Skill, your Neos Fusions are instantly over 3000 ATK.

Glow Neos is also very useful for destroying your opponent’s biggest monsters, except he won’t be able to attack. He is also amazing to use to destroy Continuous Spells that Metaphys and Six Sams use and deal 3000 Direct Damage, right off the bat! In the case for when facing Subterrors, the best cards against them are Aqua Dolphin’s hand destruction and using Wrath of Neos to nuke the field.

The best way to use Wrath of Neos is using Neo Space Connector to either get Neos from the Deck or GY and activate Wrath of Neos to nuke the whole field and maybe be able to use Neos Fusion/Miracle Contact to summon Brave Neos or the other Neos Fusions to deal 2500+ Direct Damage. Sadly, the deck can brick at times. Not the most recommended deck for the most competitive players but it’s really fun and makes Neos decks actually work!

A comment from FRC97:

Yubel is the only bad matchup this deck has, but you can beat them by preventing them from summoning Yubel and going for a OTK as soon as possible.

The trick to win against other decks is stalling if needed to deplete the opponent's resources (this can lead to finishing the duel summoning lava golem and attacking it with amazoness swordswoman) or being aggresive with Neos whenever the road is clear.

A comment from Neo Army:

  • Use Flare Neos to overpower almost anything.
  • Use Neos Fusion and send Shield Warrior to summon Brave Neos.
  • Lava Golem can get rid of anything. Save Floodgate for tuners.

Nephthys Yubel

AkashiroMy Name is YubelJune 6

A comment from Akashiro:

F2p Yubel + Nephthys deck to get through the first stage.

You want to put Yubel - Terror Incarnate and Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys on the field to clean the monster and spell zones every turn until the opponent life is zero or he get tired/annoyed and surrender. Devotee of Nephthys is pretty good for that mission, either at the ritual summon or at the graveyard.

Dark Core is good to get rid of opponent monsters but can also bring an Ultimate Nightmare to the field. You may change that for extra protection like a Sphere Kuriboh or two.

You can lose to pretty much to eveyone if they make you miss the time correctly but you can also win pretty much evey deck in the meta with the right combo.

At mirror matchs try to destroy your Yubel later than the opponent. GG, HF.

Lol this is by far the best meta we've had. I'm seeing a lot of different decks lately: Subterrors, Metaphys, Blue-Eyes, Red-Eyes, Koa'ki Meiru, buster blader, amazoness, U.A. and even fur hires. The game has improved a lot.

Agreed. My only complaint was a single card which is the re-usable trap card from Substerrors. I think the deck still would have been done great without it. You try to destroy that guy that banish 1 of your monsters, you also lose. That trap card just doesn't let you play on your turn and has 3-4 effects.

One of their BEST EVENTS.
But what I enjoy the most, is the generous amount of gems they give away.

Why was my comment deleted? It did not break any rules.

I think people want to know that the game’s audience has dropped from 90,000 to 5,000.

I played 5 games in this championship and got to the top - 5000

It was the top 90,000 last year

Only people who pay real money are left

The first half of this was fine the 2nd part is 🔥.

KM Neos

Yubel
Subterror
Weevil burn wish he would.

Beatdown needs a serious nerf as does a few other stupidly powerful skills. Also Neos Fusion needs to be limited to 1

Amazing 1st half on this event. I liked the diversity of the decks. Crazy almost 1 year ago, most people were using Fur hires (in KC Cup), but now it's better and fun.

I found it hard to believe I almost did lose my duel leading to 2nd stage, but I outplayed the Metaphysplayer with my Amazoness. Still Metaphys is very tough.

Didn't care about 2nd stage. I just played for the remaining 150 gems.

It's funny that nobody here talks about how Dark Magician is one of the decks that passed DLv. 20 between all these meta decks. It's so unreal.

took me two days to get to DLv.Max after I have reset my account.
I chose laval this time, only 5K gems used..lavals are strong in current meta as long as you have dust flame and a grave yard set-up. worst opponent is six sam as they counter dust flame so hard, yubel is easy with laval dragon.

Unbelieveable, first one has 100k DP did he even sleep??
