the meta. wut?


Recommended Posts

so people are telling me that flamvell and xsabers and all sorts of sheet are the new kids on the block. in fact, i even heard of some stupid ass deck that runs all the heralds with poa and kristya and bullshit like that.

 

i also dont to card shops much as of late. college has taken me far away from my lolocals. so i was wondering if ycm could tell me anything about whats on top and how it runs.

 

i dont feel like using the wiki

Its a very varied format. Tier decks are:

 

Synchro Cat Varients

Glad Beast Varients

Monarch varients

Machina varients

Lightsworn

Blackwings

Final Countdown

Village

Gravekeeper

I'm sure there's some I'm forgetting here...

 

On any day any of these decks can top big events, though it's probably gonna be won by cat, wing, lightsworn or gb.

Since when has Final Countdown entered the meta?

 

If I remember correctly, one was in like the top 16 at SJC Nashville. I can see it actually being a top deck currently given how many battle phase ending cards there are at the moment if you play it right...I just don't see it being an interesting deck to go through an entire tournament with at all, also Final Countdown vs Final Countdown would be beyond hilarious.

Machina varients in the meta...

The Gadgets didn't make the cut? :(.

Most Machina varients run gadgets.

I blame Battle Fader. And that duel would come down to who plays it first.

 

EDIT: Partially ninja'd.

 

EDIT: 500 posts til I hit 5,000.

Pretty much but just given the nature of the build...the stall it uses wouldn't work against itself and it'd just be a really odd match with almost nothing happening (at least that's how I picture it). Final Countdown will never be complete top simply because I believe FC players would fear other FC players since the deck does basically nothing against a copy of itself. It'd be the exact opposite of GB Mirror Match where things can actually get pretty interesting.

 

Also, I too blame Battle Fader...even though I still want 3 <_<

Final Countdown

Anti-Meta

Don't forget, in Japan, Infernities are near top tier if not top tier right now.

X-Sabers and variants are probably tier 2, but are too expensive for most people to play. It only becomes consistent enough with Emmersblade.

BECAUSE US YUGIMONZ PLAYERS WANT SOMETHING INEXPENSIVE FOR ONCE.

 

Srsly, JD eventually became over-rated as it was limited-like.

Same with DAD.

 

I guess this is why Konami can pretend to be Kaiba Corp... no wait, that's Walmart...

Pieces of paper with foil should not be worth 100+ dollars... enough said.

Only TOURNAMENT PRIZE cards that only a few of exist in the world deserve to go above 100 dollars.

There are no such things as "tiers" in Japan. They play whatever they want. And X-Sabers just suck. Emmersblade's price has already dropped so that's not the reason why the fail to top.
